Ok, so I looked and searched for a thread like this and couldnt find it. No joke. But, if Im wrong just remove and I apologize for starting another thread like this... Anyways, how many Dodges has everyone owned? Im on my second one. I had an 04 Hemi but unfortunately I totalled it rolled it after hitting black ice........... Now Im on my 01 and love it. Since basically it now has a new tranny and $7,000 of work done to it since I got it stuck 4-wheeling(insurance paid for all of it lol).. But thats 2 soo far. One day Id like to get a 06 Mega Cab with a Cummins.

 

Ah yes, the idolized Cummins...I bought one last week in Texas, and it turned out to have blow-by so still trying to figure out that situation....My current trucks I've had for three yrs is the one in my sig...97 Ram 2500 HD 4X4 360 Auto ......I've also had a '99 Ram 1500 4X2 Auto, did not like it even close to as much as I love Betty, so I sold her. So I have had three Rams, still have Betty (DD) and what to do with that Cummins........hmmm

Dodge for life buddy...Ram forever

 

And yes, I really want a quad cab 06 or 07 5.9 CTD. Anyone interested in a '05 reg cab long bed CTD auto that needs work?

 

One, my current. And if I had to buy a new truck, It would not be a dodge gasser, or any 1/2 ton. Maybe a ford powerstroke, or a 2nd gen with a cummins. Dont get my wrong, I love my truck, but she's a PITA sometimes.

 

Obviously, a Cummins is the no-brainer...but if you do go powerstoken, stay away from the 6.0 and 6.4 garbage. My 360 magnum runs better than my dads $55K 08 f-350 6.4 PS. (or piece of $#!T) Its almost kinda sad...

I am preying for the blue oval loyalists that the new 6.7 stroke will be worth a damn so Cummins gets some real competition in the heavy-duty truck segment...

 

2nd gen been in the family for a while , my cousin had a 96 that was 2wd bored .30 over.
then he had a blue 98 sport blue and his brother had a 98 5.2 and then i got my 2000 dodge ram 5.9, and his dad had a 1st gen 5.2 that was bored out and built

 

I've had 3. Started with a '94 Dakota club cab 4x4 with a 3.9. I HATED that truck, it had an amazing amount of issues. My fault though, I bought it from a shady mechanic that skipped town after I bought it. The auto tranny took a dump and the oil pan sprung a leak within a week of me owning it.


Sold the Dak to get my current truck, a '99 4wd half ton ram with the 5.9l gas job. I'm very happy with it, it's never left me stranded and I get lots of compliments on how it looks.


Last summer my boss gave me his '75 5.9l W200 that had been rotting in his barn for 12 years. I got her running and used it as a plow truck last winter, and right now I'm fixing it up to make it street legal. It has a long ways to go before it can be driven on the street. Great truck though, its like the energizer bunny, it just keeps going and going and going....

 

96 5.9 Indy
98 5.2 4x4
99 8.0 V10 4x4 (true HD)
Bought them all new

The 98(GUTLESS POS) only had 9100 miles on it when I traded it for the V10.

These 2 were keepers

 

So far just one, My truck has it's issues but everything its had has been minor.
