Interesting, but, not what I would really consider a daily driver.

Thats a pretty good price for that amount of work, just take out the front spool and have that race truck on the streets.

Made excellent time up the interstates, averaged around 15mpg on the trip up... Not too bad, temps were so cold the entire trip the truck never got to it's "normal" temp...

?? If it's that cold shutter the radiator partially. Even down to -20* our Dodge has no trouble warming up all the way.

Yup, temp gauge was almost half what is normally is, had plenty of heat though.


There was ice on the hood when I started the truck around 4:40am and there was still ice on the hood when we got to Fairfax around 10:30am......

Can anyone tell me is there a difference between a 98 dodge ram and a 98.5 dodge ram. I see people on the forums and facebook saying they have a 98.5 dodge ram and im curious to know how that happened

The are probably referencing the cummins. 98 had the 12 valve, and they switched to the 24 valve halfway through the year, hence 98.5
