I am finelly leaving tomarrow with the Dodge and toyhauler for Flordia and Myrtle Beech. A two week trip. But in the mean time. I bought another truck as you can see in picture below. It has a Cummins 8.3 with 10 speed overdrive. Not sure of game plan yet. I got it for $500.00. Ideas?



PS: My next hearing on Dodge has be scheduled for 5/30/2012.

Nice new truck. How or should I say where the hell do you find these great deals?!!!

Not sure where you are going in Florida but it would be great to check out your Dodge so if you are going to be in the Central Florida area please let me know.

Have a safe and Fun Trip.

$500? How long is the rebuild/overhaul list? Even just the 'Hard parts' can be expensive.

Looks descent though. Coach conversion? Looks like a long wheelbase.

If the Driveline is good, you just killed the bear!

Securiti-
Both of those projects are AWESOME! My hat is off to you! I simply backed down and bought what I "needed". Now I must come up with something to feel like I still rate my "man-card".
