2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Back in a dodge

[Matt Hannink]

Well I need to howl at the moon a little here. After about 13ish years I'm back driving a cummins. Holy cow did I forget what these are to drive. I've been driving a 2002 7.3 auto for the last couple years. I do love the truck and will keep driving it in rotation with the "new" dodge. The truck is a 2002 24v 6spd. I drove it 4 hours home from Salt Lake City and I was grinning from ear to ear. Just amazing. 80 mph and I got 15 something calculating off just the numbers. Came out to about 16.5 when corrected for the tires. Absolutely wonderful truck to drive.

Congrats on the "Holy Grail"

Welcome back. I have a 2001.5 HO six speed and I these last 2nd gens are the "holy grail" at least to me. Most of the bugs were worked out of the 24v and th e2nd gen platform in general. Just from 2000 to 2001 there were quite a few incremental improvements. I am sitting at about 343K, stil solid driver.
