Yeah, I dont plan on being a brat about it. I know my place and will be respecful about it. But its also irritating... When my brother wanted a 4x4 Hemi, he was given the chance to get one (despite that being strictly off limits for me). And then traded for a Jeep despite my parents not wanting him to, but they still signed it over.

Yeah, a really good rebuild with billet components can exceed $2000 without much trouble. My buddy Bradley has a 2006 ram 2500 w/ the 5.9L HO and LOTS of goodies added on and is currently on his 5th tranny (4th replacement) and finally decided it was worth going with a bullydog 1000hp tranny w/ a two step. Very pricey but virtually indestructible

Well.... Making that list completely blew up in my face and only made matters worse.

Steer clear of the one with 24s...probably been beaten like it owes him money.

What happened with your dad and the cummins?

My parents saw the spreadsheet as a way of trying to prove them wrong.
