Dang that's weird Hemipwr07! Maybe one of these days we might end up working on a project or somethingtogether. lol. We gotta graduate first though and from what I've heard the next four years are gonna be pretty tough. Yeah I've always been into designing things and making plans before I set out to build something. And no RamItOne I'm not gonnaput a lift on a2wd. That's about as useful as a screen door on a submarine. And about 15 MPG tops I gotta repectfully disagree with you on that. My mom has a Hemi with the MDS and she gets 17 in the city and 21 on the highway.

Hemi truck or hemi car? Dont forget your ma prolly drives a bit slower than you will.
Glad to hear ya think like I do bout lifting a 2wd. Some people here will not agree. Nothing wrong with a leveler or mayber a body lift. Like the screen door analogy. I always say putting meat and lifting a 2wd truck makes bout as much sense as taking a ***** to dinner, either way you're still gonna get phocked in the end.

Don't worry bro...I have the same truck you're thinking about getting. I get around 15-16 in city and 23ish going 65...if you drive aggressive you will get ****ty mileage though. A RCSB 2wd only weighs about 4900lbs...some of these guys with a 6000lbsQC 4wd think we should get the same mileage as themfor some reason.

Also if you don't need a 4wd then don't get it...everything is cheaper and easier to doon a 2wd. Get a truck with an open rear and then put a aftermarket LSD in there....the factory unit is crap.

Sounds like a nice truck! What ever happened to the parents giving a new $50 bill and a card? I guess times have changed. Red
