So whats the deal with these 03-06ish 3500s being so cheap? I keep seeing them with $10K pricetags.

8/5/2009 10:01:50 AM

just look at it.
lol

8/5/2009 10:05:12 AM

looks like a cheap tonka knock off

8/5/2009 10:09:55 AM

are you two not familiar with what a dodge truck looks like?

8/5/2009 10:19:44 AM

get it


GET IT


goddamn get it.


look at any diesel magazine, talk to anyone who does diesel - easiest mods, best bang for the buck, the longevity is there

8/5/2009 1:44:04 PM

you need one

8/5/2009 3:45:16 PM

it gets like 20mpg

can be had for < $15k




trying hard to find the downside here...

8/5/2009 4:21:13 PM

if i was gonna get a diesel it would definitely be a dodge

just saying they're not the best looking ones in my opinion. you asked why they were cheap and i told you what i thought.

8/5/2009 4:24:47 PM

Really there isn't a downside........

That was going to be my plan to sell my 12v and buy one in that year range, but now I'm not sure that I don't wanna keep my truck and get a corvette or something for fun.




Or swap my cummins into an excursion..... that's on the "possibles list" for 2010 too.

8/5/2009 4:25:58 PM

that and 500whp is attainable on the stock turbo/IP/injectors

8/5/2009 4:38:17 PM

I mean, Ill straight pipe it but dont really care to spend a buncha money to make it smoke

8/5/2009 4:45:51 PM

sigh, i thought this was a thread about

8/5/2009 5:54:14 PM

$10k? sign me up.

8/5/2009 6:18:43 PM

I thought this thread was about

8/5/2009 6:21:12 PM

Power on a commonrail doesnt have to come at the expense of smoke - with the engine management abilities of these computer controlled engines a cleaner truck can be had!



either way, it's a win win win situation

yeah because i've had to do sooo much to my dmax to make almost 100hp more than your cummins.

8/5/2009 7:46:13 PM

well. considering hurley has more than doubled his wheel hp with injectors and some 12mm washers in the governor, i'd say his 12v is doing pretty good.

8/5/2009 7:49:21 PM

^^^^ haha, first time I've seen that. I've heard about it, but I lol'd.

10/11/2009 4:21:53 AM

10/13/2009 11:07:51 PM

I actually like that body style Dodge though, so carry on.

10/29/2009 8:39:28 PM

^holy fuck. i see an engine failure in the very near future if you keep those egt's up like that. oh and this for 69:

shit. i promise you his speedo rises much quicker than that. i know mine does.

10/29/2009 8:51:05 PM

hey dude, you take care of that LB7, I'll let you know when i burn 'er down

what's your operating weight any psi?

and I thought 69 wasnt chipped

either way, 330whp @5200 is very comparable to 7xxx# @ 4xx whp

10/29/2009 9:53:18 PM

really is 300k too much for a cummins?

10/29/2009 9:57:02 PM

no, just saying it was higher.

10/29/2009 10:22:16 PM

lol 284k in 6 years, he racks up almost the kind of mileage that i do

hurley your engine is stock isnt it?

10/31/2009 5:17:48 PM

Stock hard parts... the only change is that I've got some pretty hefty injectors installed, and thats the reason for my toasty EGT's - that and it turns 3k as well.

10/31/2009 5:48:46 PM

what power level?

10/31/2009 6:11:53 PM

332 at the wheels. his is rated at 160 crank stock, i think
