Daytona + Dodge

Both just keep on ticking!
(120K on the Cummins, it may be just broken in now)

Ha ha, just a normal blue 2500.


Maybe a WG ram head in the steering wheel would be good though.. ...

Sweet. I have a 2002 3500 with a Cummings (6 sd manul) and 230k+ miles. Only use it to tow but I drive it about once every week or so. I have a 2500 Chevy diesel but that cummins is really made to tow anything. Got it from my brother in law as it took it as a trade in for a new one for less than than the price of my four wheeler. The previous owner dumped about $10k into the motor and drivetrain. It has about 1000ft pounds of torque. That Daytona is awesome. My favorite dial.

Mine is a 2004 6 speed.
Bombproof compared to the auto.

Had a 2001 that ate the shift bands after only 50k and I was barely towing anything with it at the time.

Awesome Cummins and Daytona

I beat the living crap out of my 3500 and never had an issue. Only got rid of it because the new interiors were calling to me. Fords are Chevys are nice but in my experience they just cant hang up to the abuse you can put the Dodge through.

Dont know if you're a suspension guy but if you are take a look at Carli Suspension and Thuren Fabrication. You can really have some fun with that HD dodge
