Ok Ok ok, I can finally stop bitchen about not trusting the ol gmc 454 dually.:cheer:

I picked up a 98 dodge, loaded exta cab, 4 door, cummins 12v, flatbed.

Its much nicer than what Ive been looking at in my price range. The guy came down 2700 bucks too, that helped alot.

Ill post up some pics as soon as I get back in with the camera.:beer:
 
Oh ****ing great, another one has crossed to the dark side............my dodge, my dodge, my dodge...............now we get to hear aboot all the bullshit mileage claims, blowing the doors off of said powerstroke, smoked out everyone on the road.............I need to puke! :puke:

Odie... you just haven't found one wrecked badly enough that it was cheap but still repairable or you'd have one too :fawkdancesmiley::fawkdancesmiley::fawkdancesmiley::fawkdancesmiley:

Its a 98 extra cab, 4 door. It is fully loaded. I never expected to get a truck this nice. The ones in my range we had been looking at all had problems or were roaches.
This one is a nonsmoker truck too, real important to me. Cigs are nasty.:puke:
It has 182,000 miles on it. A full 4 inch exhaust and a steel flatbed (no wood decking)

It was listed on CL by owner for $7700.:booo:
Well after some of my superb verbal negotiation skills, I had a cummins tow rig for $5000 even.:cheer:

I am so happy. I havent slept good since we started looking. I finally feel relaxed. I cant wait to hitch up the trailer!!!:awesomework:
 
Soooo, what'd it set you back??? Looks like a decent truck, save for a few cosmetic issues...:awesomework:
EDIT: You beat me to it...Nice Deal Man!!! Oh, and didn't you bum a smoke from me at the swap meet a couple yrs ago???:stirpot:

HELL NO. I have never smoked them nashty bastards. :puke:

Unless your smoke had some green hangin out the end, it wasnt me.:;


Thanks on the rig! Im stoked!:bananallama:
 
Coulda sworn it was you, when I ran into you and Brian outside the door nearest our booth...I could be wrong though-- And yeah, @ 5K, looks like a real score!!! Most 2wd 98 12V's sell for that or more if they're in any shape at all!!!:cool:

I was almost ready to throw the towel in and just get a 2wd, Im glad we waited.

I also was almost about to make a deal on the f350 powerstroke in the rigs for sale section. I always liked Odies red ford like it. Its the crewcab ford (96 or 97 I think it was). Its a killer deal for 5400 aswell. It sounds like a nice truck too. The guy was real nice on the phone to.:awesomework:

It was/is a 95 PSD (the black one,right?)....either way it too seemed like a good deal.... Congrats on yer Score!!!:awesomework:
 
too bad they didn't give you the bed with it.. I could have used it! lol.. Pretty much the same truck I have minus the tranny..

What do I do to it now? The guy said someday its gonna need an injection pump. I was readin old threads last night and it sounds like I want a stock pump with a #3 govener kit and do the dowel pin upgrade too.

Anything else? I dant want a super pumped up 12v, but I would like a decent amount of power and mileage, I dont want to do anything to kill other parts. I also dont have cheese to spend on items not needed or important.:awesomework:
