Default 2008 ram 2500 CTD..

Hi, I'km having a delima with regaurds to 08 2500 quad cab ram 4x4 lon g box with the ctd. This truck is patriot blue, 6sp, laramie with all the bells, even has the cab marker lights..

I'm ticked pink abought the 6sp.

I own a factery order 06 2500 hemi rc 4x4 SLT reg cab, 6sp patriot ble, the 08 is all most identical aside from the boidy style to my 06.

The problem with my reg cab is, it's a work truck, tows, hauls just fine, nothing is wrong with my truck, but, the new family I inhearted dosent fit to well in the back of the truck,

I have not heard kind words abought the 6.7 and my truck is so close to being paid off, a new 08 2500 is going to cost a lot more coin, and will be used as a work truck, I don't want to go threw the pain of **** happens to a new work truck again.

My hemi hauls, tows all the toys, extreamly well, but I don't want a quazd cab long box 4x4 with a hemi, too much truck for a hemi hauler..

Can I ask for Donations?

Just kidding....

You may want to look for an 06 or 07 with the 5.9. There are a lot of unhappy 08 6.7 owners. The only solution to making the 6.7 better is to delete the emission junk.

^ which you can't do if you live in an emissions state or county. it would probably be better to just find a 06 or 07 like he said.

ya i would agree with those about the 5.9, but unlike most people i havnt had any problems with my 6.7 and i love it. More and more products are coming out for it all the time so i think im gonna keep it and all. Just your choice i guess.
