Well things arent looking to good. Parts are getting hard to find. I can find the parts but I have to go to the yard and pull it myself. 20 degree weather isnt my thing. Im starting to think its better off to fix it with a used tranny and sell the truck. In fair condition it books for 5k so im thinking I should be able to get 5,500 for it. I think im gonna take out a loan and just go out a buy a ram. Its hard not having a truck. I think its the best option as of right now. It doesnt cost me anything other than insurance so selling it right now isnt a big thing ill just drop insurance on it and put it up for sale. Im going to give it 2 more weeks to find parts if nothing its as good as gone as much as I hate to.

 

that sucks bro an yeah i decided to go with the 7.3 i think i found a 2002 if i recall is the year with a 7.3 i might go look at! ill always stay here if i get a new truck ill always check in lol

 

Yeah. My uncle loves his 7.3. Im sticking with the good ole 5.9 cummins when I get a ram I wont settle for nothing else. Just need to decide if I want a 12 valve or 24 valve

 

Geez is everyone following me and getting rid of their dakotas?

My buddies live and breathe cummins and they all swear by the 12V

 

I know the 12v is easy power and like mechanical. Where the 24 valve is electronic and you cant use a screw driver to gain more power like the 12 lol. Down side is less mpg with the 12 vs the 24. I told my buddy im making mine a sleeper. Its gonna be all stock looking except for hids,tint and exhaust the rest will be all power.

 

Where are the elements of a sleeper? Haha
I'm trying to figure out how I can get my STI to look like a sleeper but I really don't think it is possible with a 1 foot tall spoiler and hood scoop that is monstrous!

 

Nothing that really shows it has power or any mods. Im gonna stick with 32's stock wheels no lift. Then under the hood will be,Intake, aftermarket turbo,injectors,tuner,lift pump. Stuff like that lol

 

want a sleeper? get a older honda civic hatch back gut it all out except the front driver seat , take all the door panels spare tire, jack back seat, everything literally but the front driver seat and put a k 20 in it, their so quick lol

I cant fit a atv in the back. lol Only car I will ever own is a muscle car thats it. Its all trucks for me. Id rather put 20k into a engine of a truck and make it a sleeper rather than a civic. lol

 

I want something that I would actually like to drive and keep my hearing at the same time. My buddy has a civic that he completely stripped out, we seriously can't have a conversation at freeway speed in that thing. I would also like something that doesn't look like garbage either
