What made you decide to get a ram. A friend at work just got an 08 cummins 6.7L Ram. Its a really sweet truck, you'll like it if you get one.

The 6.7 is extremely quite for a diesel. When my friend started I was really surprised how quite it was. And they come with 650 ft lbs of torque. Thats just awesome.

the diesel is going to get a mild lift, 35''s+, and a tune, thats it. i dont want to get crazy with it and in all honesty ill probably leave it stock until the warranty is up. why diesel? because i can. i have always wanted one an now im just at the point where i can afford one. i can tow our boat, atv's, and snowmo0biles with no problem.
