Default It's odd really..

I had a weird feeling since i woke up this morning... I have a burning desire to buy a cummins. Not do a swap or nothing just sell mine and get one.

There is nothing wrong with my truck and in fact i love it. Just i want the power, reliability, and SMOOOOOOKE associated with the cummins. Just need to save up.
Or could use that money and buy a motorcycle. i've wanted one since i was a kid.
Help a brother decide

I was hemming and hawing buying a 2003 Cummins from a friend. It's loaded for bear, four doors, blah blah blah blah, with only 41K miles. I decided that the eventual price he'll be asking, which will be north of $20K just isn't worth it for my needs. My 97 is paid off, and I'm planning on tearing it all the way down to bare metal next spring and redoing it from stem to stern.
