    my 1988 gmc 2500k just isnt quite up to the tasks i demand of it.
    so my sweety told me i needed a new truck (bless her lil heart)
    my buddy has a bone disease and cant push in a clutch anymore.
    so i am buying his 2001 dodge 3500 quad cab dually with the 5.9 L cummins turbo diesel
    6 speed manual tranny
    yikes!
    this thing is a brute.
    anyway i am jazzed about my new toy hauler/toy/tool

    I'm keeping all my parts crossed for your buddy but otherwise, good luck with your new toy. I know a lot of fuel and compound turbocharging will allow you to rotate the earth so new mexico ends up next to new jersey.

    Dammed fine truck there. A buddy of mine has that same truck. It makes a great hauler.
    A few quarters could make that truck look a lot better..

    I like it clean better than randomly dirty. But after a hard day's work if it's dirty, that's good.

    I've always envied someone with a dirty car; it shows they've actually been somewhere...not just driven around town from carpark to carpark.
