On the next button towards the bottom it tells about his other Rams; they all add up to over 3 million miles!

It's weird that he had to get it replaced seeing as how the digital odometers in rams reset to zero at 500k miles... But it's not unheard of for the Cummins to go over a million miles.

I used to live near a guy who had (and probably still has) a 2nd Gen Dually which I think is a '95 or '96 who pulls a goose neck trailer and delivers those big roof-top, commercial air conditioning units all around the country.

I moved in '04 and haven't seen the guy since, but at the time he had 800,000+ miles on his and that's mostly HEAVY haulin' miles...

Wow that's awesome!

The most I've seen on a truck was about 400,000 miles, it was a first gen Cummins that was for a landscaping business. They would do the work using other trucks but load all the big stuff into his trailer. That was back in the mid 90s.
