Hey guys. . post links to any video you might have of your CTD. I'm not looking for "get to know my truck... here is the door... here is the steering wheel... " What I want is POWER pics. Burnouts... cool... . tractor pulls... . yes..... video of your gauges working... bueno. Post away!



NOTE: Please post the links and *NOT* the video itself to save the dial-in people (If feel for you... I really do... . ) lots of time. Thanks. Oo.



I have some bigger ones... ... .

about 4 or 5 of them that are 7 to 8 megs. Can your email ahndle that size?



I'll try to find most of mine. Unfortuantly I don't have any from the 13. 44 day (same day turbo went kaboom)
 
Katdiesel-

that was yoru turbo that went kaboom? Did the truck run after that?



My email won't take anything over 2mb but if you know how to FTP, then we can exchange that way.
 
Jim I need that truck at an intersection bad, that burnout just adds to the pic of all the trucks parked with teh cop driving by looking at the black marksOo.



Jim
 
That burnout of jims was awesome! Esp. when he covers that SUV (is it an exploder?) in smoke! Then the dude on the sidewalk gets covered. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! I've wanted to do that to so many sorority girls walking on campus. :D

Mark, What's really fun is doing that to the bicyclers up in Boulder. If you've been to boulder then you'll understand. . LMAO



Shhh... . Don't tell Stacked-N-Jacked about them videos... cause then we may have to make a trip up to boulder when he get's here..... he enjoys pestering them bicyclers too... ROFLMAO



Kev
 
K_Arts - We'd stick out like a sore thumb in boulder with our trucks. Can we get all the RMTDR guys together and cruise Pearl street on the 11th? Oo.
 
The boulder trip is partial to qualification. . LMAO



Stacked-N-Jacked and myself already have an appointment to go up there... . but the prerequisite it that you have to smoke enought to make people caught and gag at your smoke trail... ROFLMAO :D :D :D



Kev
 
This is better than espn!



Heres a vid looking at the speedo while accelerating to 105mph. Add 7% for 285 tires, and looks like its going over 110, was still pulling. Only mod at the time was a Van Aaken.



Had to shrink it from 19meg down to 3. 5, so lost alot of quality, but you can still see...

Are you serious? I have burried my needle a couple of times past the 120 mark. . and she keeps pull'n



I'm just afraid to hold it for to long... I don't know how much my tires an handle...



Kev
 
Kev- it gets pretty close but I it won't quite get there. I've beleived from day 1 that I got a bad 24V. My EZ woke it up a lot and soon I'll be adding DDIIs to finish the job.



Cummins built it right, Dodge's software screwed it up and BOMBing it makes it all better. . :D

Gear ratio?



I can't get mine over 100mph either..... in the 1/4 mile that is ;) But in all seriousness I can't do much over 100mph a) because of ratio, and b) my speedo is off due to tire size.
 
Mark,



Eric has a good point. What's your rear end ratio?



I got 3. 54's... . and love em when it comes to the Top End... LOL



Kev
 
3. 54 for me too... BOMB it... Then again, EZ is only on setting #2. Or maybe due to the fact that I'm @ 4x4 with a lot more windage? It is kinda sorry actually as my hummer would do 90.
 
azcummins,there is something seroiusly wrong with your truck,it doesnt make any sense at all,that truck should go close to 120,easily. My 2000 can do 110 with 4. 10's@3200RPM. it says 104-105,but the 285 tires bring it to 110-112mph. If i wanted to stay at that speed,i might be able to squeeze another 4-5 mph out of it,but I dont go that fast for more than a few seconds,and not often.
 
Snowman-

I agree with you. At first I thought it was just the fact that my truck was new, but now I have nearly 70k miles on it and it doesn't do much better. My MPG went from 14 to 15. 5, but sometimes it drops to 12 for no good reason.



After having this truck, I'll never buy first generation anything again. I think you have to wait till the company gets the kinks out, which D/C never did on the '98. 5's. They just fixed it in the 99's and left us first generation 24v's out in the cold.



BOMBing is my solution to what D/C won't fix.
 
Az,have you had the low power reflash done? Did you get it dyno'd at all?. If it were mine,and couldnt do 100 with an EZ,i d be real concerned. My stock 96 auto 4x4 did 98 mph easy,it hit the governor at 2500,or it would have went faster too,it pulled hard at 90 mph,with only 180hp.
