Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Do you inavertantly advertise for Diamler?

[SmokinJoe]

Every time you drive your Cummins powered RAM do you realize you are advertising for DC? You are doing this for free. This just happened tonight as I drove home from the gym...



This is not the first time this has happened:



Pull up to a light in the fast lane both windows down. Guy next to me in a GM is gawking at the RAM. I take off slowly and in third gear so a not to go WOT and break his eardrums. The next light he asks if I want to sell the truck and give me a thumbs up. I take off then a little more aggressive. Next light he asks what year it is and his wife asks how did I make it so loud?



Either there are a LOT of rednecks in Michigan or the sound of the Cummins has hypnotic powers! I could have really flipped the guy out if I had used the exhaust brake.



Third Gen owners are missing out on the traditional and historic sound of inline power. Ford and Chevy just have a truck that makes weird knocking noise...

You should have told him that you were entertaining offers!! If he wanted it that bad maybe he would have convinced you to sell!!! LOL

Everything I own is for sale for the right price! You and me may not agree that it's a fair price, but the price I set is my own, and if someone is willing to pay, they can have it!

What's even funnier is, I removed all badges & stickers from my truck. I watch people try & figure out what my is while driving or sitting at a light.

I cant count how many friends have switched to Dodges ,just because they were so impressed with mine. Considering my truck is a full time plow truck,daily driver,runs low 12s, sled pulls,and tows my 34ft Sunnybrook all summer. Most of my friends are impressed with how well its held up overall,and so am I. I am an active member on http://www.snowplowing-contractors.com/forums/index.php, i have gotten a few contractors to switch to Dodges,after we compared how the trucks have held up to HD plowing.

Yieks! Did you see that rig!!! Excuse me while I change my shorts - and it runs 12s to boot . . . oh, oh, oh, oh - baby! here I go again :-laf



Quite the plow rig - never seen one with a plow comming off the side of the bed like that - looks like it works real well - thanks for the pictures - they speak multitudes of what out trucks are capable of.

John's pretty modest. That truck is almost in the 11's. It's the best do it all truck i've ever seen. It's not just a daily driver, it's a work truck too.



Oh, and i've converted 1 chevy owner and 1 Ford owner in the last 2 months. That's just my close friends. :-laf

Your truck is awesome! I wull have to show that to a few of the Ford and Chevy boyz at work! See if thier diesel can handle two plows at the same time!

Smokin Joe you nailed that one!

 

[KenRobinson]

That is just the coolest thing Ive ever seen. Is that a home made rig for plows or can it be bought?
