New truck ordered

[WMann]

Tuesday morning I went to Smith Stokes Dodge in Reidsville North Carolina and ordered my truck.

3500 ETH/DEE, 4X2 Quad Cab, Flame Red with Sport Package, Trailer Tow, Camper Special, SLT Plus, Limited Slip, sliding Rear Window and Folding Tow Mirrors.

This should keep us in the poor house for a while. I just hope that it proves to be a reliable as my 12 valve 96 model with 150000 miles loged so far. I am going to upgrade the 96 with the sport package painted front grill and bumpers and the new tow mirrors. Then it will look like a new truck as we pile on another 150000 miles, I hope.

Thanks for all the great info on this site.

Thanks for the replies. We are getting so excited. I have driven several ETH DEE 3500's and my friend has a 2000 3500 ETC DEE, so I have spent alot of time driving them. The six speed is the only way to go, unless they come out with an eight speed.

I just hope someone gets this clutch thing figured out before the Bombing bug gets a hold of me.

I've never done anything to our 96 3500 12 valve because of the crashomatic transmission. I don't know how much longer I can supress these bombing urges.
