I bought mine from a dealer in late July 98. It only had 444 miles on it. They said it had been trucked everywhere and they had it sitting in a back garage, covered, behind the dealership for 6 months. The owner wouldn't let anyone drive it because he knew it was the first one available to the public. The 29 before mine he said had been touring models for car shows & magazines. #'s 30-50 were issued to dealers around the country as the first production models available to the public. Most were driven by the dealership's and sold as demo's. Wierd huh.
And to think I was going to buy a Durango that day but the Dodge dealer pissed me off. The Ford dealer was next door and I saw a bright yellow Mustang SVT. I test drove that and wanted to buy it. While waiting for the back to come through the owner came up to me as asked me if I wanted to test drive a new SVT. I drove a silver one they just got in, it was awesome but I hate silver. I asked him if he had any other colors...he said I have a Black one in the back. The rest is history.
