nice to see the 2nd gen's still going strong...a bit over 226,3xxk miles on my 95 5.2 ram now. I just use it for grocery trips and cruising around town, any far away trips are done in my sister's 4cylinder car where even before gas prices tanked could fill the entire car up for $20 then...even less now. The long bed has come in handy moving stuff before. Might need some freon added for this upcoming intense Tx summer with killer humidity but as far as getting me from point A to B still rock solid...only ever got some used tires for it, did a tuneup, oil change, and fuel pump and a battery over the past few years. Every couple of months more of the dashboard falls apart though, before too long there won't be much of one left whatsoever LOL. Put 30 bucks in gas the other day and took me from the E light to nearly 3/4th full, I have the ~34-35 gallon tank, got a bit over 18 gallons out of the 30 bucks. $1.60 a gallon.

Swoodruff85, that truck shines great! When I get back from Germany in 2 years, I plan on repainting my truck. It's sitting at just shy of 200k with paint being one of the only big issues on the truck.
