New tow rig time.

The Cummins was starting to rust on the inside wheel wells and the body seam under the cab. It was a good truck but I was ready for something new. The tranny was getting harder to shift and wanted to grind downshifting to second while moving. Not sure what that was about.

Hopefully this ones pulls just as good.

Nice!

Looks like a long rig with the crew and 8ft box. I thought mine turned like a battleship with the ext cab and 8ft bed.

Nice! Dodge wants to buy my truck back because of the tie rod recall or something. Not sure what I would go with

I wanted an auto this time and figured this would be the best combination.

My 05 Duramax 2500hd is a crew cab 8' bed. It is a mile long but you get used to it! And when you need to load it up you'll be glad you have the extra length.

I really should go for a newer truck, but I can't say I like any of the new ones. The back seat on that truck fold up or down? I don't think I would be happy unless I had the fold down seat like my 05 has and everyone I've seen fold up so you can't store shit under them.

I think this one just folds up. Haven't checked it closely yet.

How long before it gets the minimaxx treatment?

Sad to see the Cummins go, but can understand why. Mines stayed pretty rust-free, but I've been going at it religiously with FluidFilm since I bought it.

Gonna try and leave it stock for a while.

I need to get this one undercoated or something.

My tranny was getting hard to shift in the dodge. Is yours still going like when it was new?

Mine still shifts great. I went to a dual disk clutch that makes it noisy and does affect downshifting a little, but it was fine until then. I have 77k mi on it no rust yet...
