What really bugs me about the 03

[Dean Upson]

The looks grow on you slowly, but slide behind the wheel and that ugly duckling turns into a swan real fast.

Amen, Brother Fireman .

Normally High output is badged

SS 396, Hemi, LTD, it just seems like if it is the extra umph, it oughta be so noted.



With the extra power from this HO over my 99, it is hard to get that smile off either of our faces.

I like the looks of the graphics and would be interestested when they are available.

 

[bighammer]

Yea, I'd be into some cool decals for mine. I de-badged the tailgate but ran out of gas before doing the sides.

 

[Dean Upson]

I'm interested in the hitch plate .

Hey, there's an idea - just look at the driver's face - a really big smile is either a bombed SO or an HO.

If you see a short box with factory clearance lights on the roof it has to be a cummins because thats the only engine available in a 3500 short box.

The dealer in Santa Fe, NM puts a decal on the back side of the bed that reads:



High Output

(Rams head in cntr)

CUMMINS



Found out that one of the persons that works there makes them for the dealer. Charges like 25 for each one and can make in any color (supposedly).



Ordered the DC ones from my dealer and they not like what I thought they would be;



C DIESEL POWERED



Sorta like the HEMI POWERED ones you may see in the dealers accessories catalog.



May cut the C off and use it as its about 3. 5x 3. 5" by itself.



Was thinking about having him make one for the tailgate that would fit between the handle and the lower raised portion.



SOTSU!

Your badge ideas are good, but I would put a big blue C on the left side, to balance the rams head on the right. The Cummins lettering is still small enough to be hard to read. I like having the High Output lettering available in red. The chrome will match the rest of the truck much better than the gold, IMHO. Thanks.

These are getting closer

We are getting closer with these badges and hitch covers. We would be interested in any comments and suggestions on any item.



This effort is to help deal with the badging issue.



Thanks

Ron & JodiAlmost Ready, If you get a chance maybe take a look and comment.

Speaking of badging. The other day a mid 1980's chevy 1-ton tow rig blew by me and I caught the unmistakable sound of a cummins big 6. The guy had applied the red striped turbo diesel emblem from a dodge ram on the rear of the tow bed of his truck. It put a smile on my face all the way home.

That rig wasn't in central Mass, was it?

aftershock

If'n you don't get it from the '03 badges on the C-pillars(well not actually on there yet), the TDR stickers on each quad window, the gauges on the pillar, or the 5" pipe, this will clue you in after I pass...

 

[Blakers]

Trying to figure out some ideas on this one.

You see a new heavy duty 03 coming at ya . You want to smile and wave at a CUMMINS brother. You cannot tell what is under the hood because the badging cannot be seen at road speeds.

All the second genners had the ''red stripe of letters '' under the Ram emblem. Also the V-8 or V-10 identified the gassers.

I sure miss being able to instantly see all my ''brothers'' comin down the road. --- Do I need to get a life?

I'm trying to figure out some new graphics that we can put on the 3rd gen trucks so they can be quickly identified. I've got some ideas, but let me know what you think. Something classy and simple, but that will go well with the original emblems, etc.



Thanks,

Blake

I have the TDR grill badge on the front and a Cummins Power badge on the back of my trailer. Got it covered!
