Talking First Dodge

Hello All!!

First time Dodge owner here. Traded a 1986 monte carlo ss for a 1998 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 w/ 5.9l. I was ripped of by the owner of the truck. (more on that later.. lets say for now the odo says 107,000..maintence records.. 147,000)

Anyway.. besides the problems that need to be fixed I am starting to enjoy "the Dodge" as I refer to it. Right now I am working on getting a new exhaust.. plenum gasket.. getting these crappy 33' tires w/rims off of it. A few other problems that will be addressed in time..

I just recently graduated college with a degree in automotive technology and mechanics. Still a learning process even tho I graduated still alot of hands on needs to be done. So unless I REALLY cannot do it the driveway works just fine. Looking forward to helping and being helped along with my new purchace.

Thanks Guys and Gals..
