Nother 4-8" of snow coming today.. pretty ready for winter to be over.

Waiting on 2 shipments from fedex. One from gary-l and one from auto anything. My grille will be here today. Seems as though my auto anything shipment got lost. It was supposed to be here yesterday but the tracking info hasn't updated since tuesday.

Was on the phone with fedex last night for over 30 minutes and got nowhere with them. Turns out they aren't even in the US. they were in central America. So sick of fedex!

While the weather probably has some blame I usually refer to FedEx as CrapEx...

Which is a more than appropriate name for them. Which is why I never ship with them unless I need international.

As far as the Cummins priced at $15,500, that is not bad at all. up here a dodge cummins will be upwards of 15,500 if it is a 2nd gen or newer. People get the notion that they can gouge on them. It's just the market... The same truck with a gasoline is only about 3K less. I won't mention what I have the Dodge listed at...

Been snowing pretty good here all day, but it doesn't seem to be amounting to much. Personally I like the snow but our weather has been wierd. Every time it snows, it will warm up for a few days and melt, every damn time. If it didn't keep melting we would have a couple feet by now.

A second gen Ram, yes. One that has tires that will destroy the trans/axles in very short order, no. My point being there seems to be a bunch of these lifted/huge size tired 2nd genners around here. None done the right way. 44's on stock axles?? Probably has stock gearing as well...lol

I wish this had been up when I bought my truck:

I'm glad I have 4 wheel drive and don't have a long bed, but for that price I'd take them!
