Default 2006 ram 2500 cummins test drive

Hi everybody!!
I own a 2005 Dodge Dakota V6 3.7L and like it but this saturday morning I went to my Dodge dealer and test drove a 2006 ram 2500 with the AWESOME 5.9L L6 Cummins!!!! I must say WOAH!!!!! this truck is simply AMAZING!!! the road was wet so every little push on the accelerator would spin the wheels!!! the truck is very impressive; all these HP and TQ!!! Since then I'm trying to find a way to buy one as soon as possible!!! but here in my country the reg cab costs about $50.000... by the way...I'll own one one day!!! I didn't test the 5.7L V8 Hemi but considering the price of petrol in my country ($1.30 for one litre of petrol...) I think the diesel is the best choice for me.

hhhmmm. . .I'm wondering if it would be cheaper to buy a used 93-98 12 valve and have it shipped.

there are ways to crank up the juice on those older 12 valves to where they would smoke a brand new truck

That would be a solution...but I definitely like the look of the 2006 Rams. I like the way they redesigned the front end with new lights...and the sound of the engine and turbo is so pleasant!!! lol!!! So I decided I would have one soon...at least I hope!!![&:]
