Well if any of ya'll noticed i havent posted over here in a while ive been worken 70-86 hours per week but i got the day off.... You guys are probaly gonna be dissapointed with me though i did get a new truck my parents wanted me to get something newer than an old 12 valve so i had to settle with a hemi i do love the truck though dont get me wrong i got a 2003 Ram 2500 quad cab short bed fully loaded with 25k on the clock for a greaaaat deal that i couldnt pass up... but hey at least i didnt get a 1500 right?

and mayfair you dont even have to say
[sm=ttiwwp.gif] because i got them for you

Its a caddilac compared to my old junker!

 

They run good, i had a 2003 black 2500 with a super chip, 35's, airraid, throtle body, and flowmaster. But the 11 mpg I hated, so just traded for a 2002 2500 cummiuns.

 

Its a nice truck dude, but it kinda sucks because of how much you wanted that cummins, oh well, thats what your next truck will be. Although, you will get half the gas mileage with this thing compared to a cummins

 

I realized you were gone, but then I remembered that you said that you'd be working a TON to save up for the Cummins. It's a shame you couldn't get your parents on the same page as you. Couldn't even talk em into a 24 valve huh?

Oh well , I think we ALL started out with gassers .... no biggie Your new truck DOES look cool though !! Those nerf boards look great on there. Congrats 59 ... Best of luck with it !!

 

Congrats on the new truck, and yes at least it's not the 1500. Just take really good care of it and it will be worth more when it's time to finally get that Cummins.

 

No shame in driving that truck, it is slick

 

Nice looking truck, you do realize we willhave to give you a hard time a little bit right?? Good luck with the black, I traded my black one in on an inferno red. I do construction so it is likely more difficult for me to keep clean and scratch free than most.

 

here's what ya do...remove all of the Hemi badges...drain 6 quarts of oil out of it, but dont replace it. Then richen up the fuel mixture real good and swing by the nearest Dodge dealer and grab some Cummins badges...stick them on and dont tell anyone what youve done. Just busting your chops...nice truck! Dont worry about not having a Cummins...youve got a Cummins in your heart and thats half the battle. Besides...if Jimmy gets stuck again and tells us about it you can have his!

 

Not gettting exactly what you wanted is part of life sometimes. The hard work did pay off though. Just be patient and keep working at what you really want and soon enough you'll have a brand new Cummins sittin the drive way. I tell ya though,, those Hemi's look reaaaalll good, I've seen several that kinda made me jealous,,,,,, but then I just stepped on the gas and felt all better again [8D].

 

Hey at least you got a new truck lol. I'm still stuck in my jeep waiting. but such is life. the family basically said look manage your money properly and save up so you can make a good sized down payment on the truck. I dunno what their opinion of good size is but i'm up to 5k now so hopin to get over ten that way the amount that we'd have to finance would be like in the 20's. They said if I wanted like a half ton we'd go get it now but I know what I want and i'd rather wait lol. plus they've talked to a lot of people that own the hemi's and CTD's and most hemi guys say go CTD and all CTD guys say go CTD. so they totally agree with me. plus my mom has hated the fact of me driving that jeep since day 1. something to do with safety. well i think i'll be safe in a big *** dodge three quarter ton.
