Bad ass truck man! Thing is going to be wicked when your done with it.
Maybe......Maybe my next truck will be a cummins. I was going to by a Cummins before I bought this truck but when it came down to it... I have no need for one so I figured I would thake the extra money it was going to cost and Mod the shit out of my current one.

The best part of it Is. I'm still getting 15-17 mpg on these big a tires. And my left foot isn't exactly light. I know what y'all are saying about diesel costing more but for me there's no comparison. I drive a 3/4 ton ford gasser at work and I wanna drive the dang thing off a bridge! I can't speak for the newer hemi's but my grandpas '04 does ok until you hook it to a trailer and then it won't get out of its own way. And ive never seen close to 17 while driving it. It's all preference but I'll never own another gasser.

Yeah. Diesels are addicting. Owned 2 gas trucks as daily drivers and neither one of em made it more than 6 months. I can't handle em. Lol.

Thats very true about the brinks truck and a funeral. Im talking about the money and this is coming from a guy bagging a reg cab 1/2 ton. I guess Im just more passionate about bagged rides.
