Default new guy here

hello all. i don't own a truck yet but hope to in a few days. i found a repo at my local bank that looks like a good start for a truck. its a 1998 3500 duel with a heck a good bumper and brush guard. its got 150000 miles on it and its standard need some body work but other than that its in great shape and started up without hesitation after setting in a parking lot for months. i love diesel : )

have you tried www.craigslist.org ? there are alot of free ads there and you may find one cheep. sometimes people get into a jam and find a cheep sale on their truck is an answer to some of their problems...
