I was browsing through craigslist and saw this, not I am not interested by no means, but liek to browse and look at stuff. This one caught my eye because something jsut doesnt seem rights. You will probably catch it as soon as you open it up, i know I did. A 1500 with 8 bolts axles????

Any input would be apreciated, fairly certain its not been modded, but something has been done.

 

the mega cab 1500 was built on the 2500 chassis

mega cab 1500 and 2500 is basically the same truck from what ive read

 

Yep, MegaCab 1500 is on a 2500 chassis and is SFA. There are a couple of minor differences between the Mega 1500 & 2500, but IMO, they should classify them as a 2500/3500 because a MegaCab 1500 shares almost nothing with the 1/2 ton 1500s...

 

I always wondered why they ever had a Mega Cab 1500. I just assumed it was marketing, for the people who didn't want an HD pickup LoL

 

gotcha, I never knew they even made megacab 1500 till a guy in my town bought one. That is dumb though, if its a 2500 at heart why put the 1500 sticker on it.

 

wish I could have found an 07 megacab for 20 grand around here. best deal on my 05 QC was 18g's

 

just more reason to debadge it

 

Does a 1500 cost less to insure than a 2500?

 

Possible? not really sure, the newest truck we have is my dads 04 cummins and that is like 150 for 6 months, full coverage. Which is bull because my truck was over a gran for full coverage, and no one on our plan has had a claim. Atleas tnot one our insurance had to pay. They actually had a 06-07 megacab 2500 a couple months ago, 5.9L, 6spd, 100k miles. I really wanted my dad to buy it, minaly for our sled trips out west. I wana say it was $22K.
