Hope you decide to stick with Dodge. That is a good price you got for your truck too.

couldn't get me into a manual tranny. Annoying, time consuming and gets very old. Now, if pulling power is what you need, manual is the way to go or else get a diesel.

I think you meant 6spd right? u forgot the 6...lol

As far as QC to MC. i wouldn't get a MC unless I had adults riding all the time. There's Plenty of room for kids and teens back there. hell, I grew up in a X-cab silverado which is tiny compared to my QC.
Just throwing thoughts out there.

I sold it because I'm sick of the shaking and I just bought a boat that weights about 7k loaded and I'm pulling it about 2-3 times a week and I live around a bunch of mountains and I'm just killing the truck. I definitely need to buy a diesel. Plus that's what I wanted in the first place and just happend that a buddy wanted my truck.

7k loaded is fine for a 5.7L QC. Unless you've got 3:55's you weren't killing it. I can certainly feel 7k behind me but 3:92's and 20's are like having 3:73's back there with 17" rubber. My buddy has 4:56's in his and has 20's. Pulling 7k with his truck is a whole diff ballgame than mine with 3:92's.
You can have all the power u want, but if the gearing isn't right. Your screwed.

I have the 3.92s 20's and 35 mickeys and it will tow it all day long at 4 1/2 5 thousand rpms and get 7 miles to the gallon. on a flat road at 60 65 it's ok but it really just gave me a excuse to get what I really want a diesel.
