local dealer has a 2007 3500 Mega Dually for sale, it is silver and has 5.9

www.lampedodge.com

if you decide to buy there give them my name and I think we both get something out of the deal.

That's a sad story how your country has been ruined. It never got much attention here in the states but I do remember occasional stories about it back when mugabe's thugs were tossing the farmers off their land and seizing everything.What a shame.I hope you doget yourCummins/Ram and have some fun with it.Good luck Fletch.

there's plenty of 5.9L in the USA. You just can't get a mega 5.9L anymore. A dealer near me has quite a few quad cab 5.9L

10-15 years ago, we couldn't keep any Americanvehicles running in Africa. I hope you have or are your own mechanic.

aren't you worried about the corrupt government or a jealous mob stealing your new truck? since it sounds like it'd be pretty nice compared to everything else down there and more than a few might be willing to relieve you of it...

Man that sucks,

I'm sure you couldfind a nice piece of land here in the US and we can always make room for another CTD but I say if you are going to stay you should spend the extra cashhave the truck armored. It sounds wierd but in an environment like that I think it would be a wise investment.

Good luck on your search.

Good luck in finding a suitable Cummins-powered Ram. As the others have pointed out, there should still be some 5.9s available.

I have read the books written by Peter Capstick, the white hunter who led a lot of hunts in Rhodesia in the 1970s and 80s. I would love to go on a Cape Buffalo hunt there in Zimbabwe, but I think I'll wait until the Mugabe craziness subsides.
