I may be done with my 1500. My truck will be paid off in november and I'm thinking of geting a 09' 2500. Hemi, Cummins, don't know yet but I'm prety sure that's what I've decided.

 

why not wait until the new body style 2500 come out?

 

The new 2500 should be out by november. If your mind is made up, I say go for it.

 

When my truck is paid off I am gonna get one of them new 2012 Ram 2500's, Otherwise known as a rebadged 09.

 

Ya that's when the new bodystyle is supposed to be out. I'm just wanting a stronger truck. IFS suck's as if everyone on DF does'nt already know this, and our rear ends.

 

But your truck looks bad a$$..........the 3rd gen looks better than the 4th gen IMO!

That yellow looks tight.

 

I know but I need to have something stronger that will take on more than just light towing and offroading. The IFS and 9 1/4", transmission, transfercase ect. The list can go on and on, on these 1500's the more I read on DF the more I start to dislike my ride!!

 

Hahaha i hear ya dude. The more i read about these trucks the more i wished i bought a f-150



oops did i say that out loud?

 

Yeah You did!! You should be shame!!

 

I don't see what the big deal is with the front IFS. Sure it can't handle hardcore offroading. but if you're a hardcore offroader, you owuldn't have bought an IFS to begin with.

And I get that ball joints and such wear out after a while, but that's after 50-100k! change them out, and you get another 50-100k, longer if you get higher quality ball joints.

only reasons i really see to get a 2500 is hauling, towing, plowing, or serious offroad. of course if you're buying one anyway, then it's easy to justify a 2500, but i wouldn't trade a truck in and take a hit to bump up
