ORIGINAL: DropTine249

Right now I drive an F-250 SD and a Dodge Durango.

I'm getting rid of the F-250 and will probably be purchasing a new Dodge 2500 6spdwith the Cummins Turbo Diesel.

I plan tointall at leasta 2'' leveling kit, some 36" Mud tires, full exhaust, Banks system and a chip. Maybe propane injection, down the road.

I wanted a smaller truck, but its just not practical for the farm, I need power to pull....
VERY NICE. Cummins is hard to beat. Hate to be your wallet though[]

Definitely heavy duty stuff droptine. Reminds me of a budy now driving an escalade, I'll have to get some pictures. He had an 03 6.0 F-350 crew cab with long bed. He got a bunch of EDGE products on the thing, a full programmable display with 5 or 6 stages, another deal that pigy backed on it, bigger intercooler, monster air cleaner, 5" exhaust. He had well over 650 horses last I remember and could pull a 42" Fountain like it was a Malibu. The dang thing had 37" tires and a bed piece that slid out with a cap and weighed over 8000 pounds but could smoke a stock Mustang and even beat a vette. After dropping two trannys and blowing a Turbo he got rid of it and I don't miss lifting deer shoulder height to get them into the back of it.

I don't put deer in the Sebring coupe. I hunt local so I just call someone with a truck or my Mom's boyfriend has a couple trailers I can use. I'm so little I have to call someone anyway because I can't lift a dead deer into a car or truck anyway. They weigh more than I do[&o].

Nice car Rick, those things are awesome. Mines no slouch though, it's basically a re badged Eclipse GT. 3.0 and a 5 speed with low gears. Not exactly a race car but it's fun to drive and gets decent milage.

Had the pleaseure of following this truck to work this morning. At least they had the MIA magnet to show they aren't a total tool.
