I wasn't trying to get the thread off topic, just having a little fun.

I don't mind spilling the beans, Rocket.

She just rolled over 21k miles, only had 10k miles on her when I bought her back in Nov 2007. I paid $34k, which back then I thought was a great deal considering my credit union told me that would have loaned as much as $45k for her.....not now in this economy but I wouldn't get rid of her anyway.

The story I was told was that an older man bought the truck new (sticker is still in glove box @ $54k) to pull his new 5th wheel RV. He traveled around for about a year then sold his RV and traded the truck in on a Toyota Tacoma. All the mods were done by him except the tint. I believe something has been done to the exhaust as well. The piping is bigger than stock ones I have seen, and the muffler is smaller than stock ones I have seen. Also, the tip is welded-on and appears to be stainless steel, it actually looks a little gold'ish in color. The turbo whistles more than the other few cummins dodges I have ridden in too.

I have only added 11k miles to her in 2-1/2 years because I have a company car with personal use. So, she only gets driven when I pull the RV and on the weekends....sometimes I drive it to work just because I love the truck. Most of the time I forget to turn the radio on because I love listening to the turbo whistle.

I have always had the mod bug but was married...not sure where all my money went. Now recently divorced I have started the mods I've always wanted to do. The first of which is tires and wheels, which I ordered on Friday. I bought a HBS 2" leveling kit which is the floorboard waiting for installation.

Sorry this is so long, just wanted to spill the beans good and proper. Anymore questions let me know.

whoa what's with all the hatorade? jay never said street trucks were faster only better. i like my truck being vertically challenged but would not line up with mmstar and think i could take him for a second. lifted trucks are monsters and street trucks are just effin sexy, two totally different classes and i will have one of each before too long. i was going to install a winch on my truck to pull me out of traffic since that is the only thing i will ever be stuck in but it would probably just have scraped the pavement and thrown sparks. sorry for the rant i just dont care to be known as the "snal class"
