For sure put extra gauges on it, the EZ will really excite you.

Welcome, what an adventure!! I would not add the EZ until you upgrade the transmission.

Pit Bull - this is the first mention that I have heard of upgrading the auto trans for the EZ..... I'll start a new thread to see what comes out rather than asking here... .

I'm guilty, so sorry!

Damon, I must have drove right by you- on Saturday, anyway. We went to Tahoe that week and I passed through Lone Pine in the early afternoon. Good luck with your new truck!

Damn!!!! That's one hell of a road trip. Good luck with the new truck. And look at the story you get to tell when you go camping from now on.



Friend: Damon, when did you get the new truck? What made you decide on the Dodge?



You: Sit down over here and get that six pack some fresh ice... .

Hey Damon...



Sorry to hear about your breakdown. Your story is everyone's worst nightmare. Congratulations on the new truck. There is a section on this site available to members that will give you the names and phone number of TDR members across the country that can offer various levels of help and resources to you if you are stranded or need help. You have a brand new truck but you never know what might happen. TDR is supposed to be coming out with a printed version of this resource soon I think. I just finished posting my contact information in case someone breaks down in my area or just wants to I TRIED TO BY-PASS THE CUSSING FILTER chat.



It seems that every possible thing that could go wrong for you, did go wrong. Heck... If you ever break down again, it will probably be a piece of cake compared to this last ordeal you went through.

What I wanna know is were you able to atleast ride at Mammoth Mt? We raced there this summer and had a blast.

oh yeah we rode !

I was supposed to be back to work Monday, but I took the whole next week off, cause I really needed a vacation. I ride a YZ400, and my buddy a KTM 360, and we rode all day Sunday from the Knolls area all the way up near June loop, until he had to head back home for work.



After that is was me and my 10 year old son on the mountain with the gondola and our mountain bikes. Mammoth is some of the best riding I've found anywhere - MX, XC, or MTB's. That and the fishing and scenery keep bringing me back year after year.
