I like all the old pickups from the early 90s, before they got passengerized, but the 1st gens have the most CHARACTER of the lot and the CTD seals the deal. I get so many nice comments on my truck, it tells me that people still dig OLD SCHOOL

Sortie your truck is dang sexy.....love that beefy bumper on it....I just love the first gen cause even in the 90's when chevy and ford were going a little more aero-dynamic the first gen stayed true to its roots.....i love all the dodge trucks, but the first gen just says," I am a freakin' man's truck..."I love the ol' 70's fords and chevys too....

Thanks guys! I was just lucky to grab er.. I don't see her working to hard. We have a handful of other trucks powered by a Cummins if I need to pull a gooseneck or something. As clean as she is, it's crazy how many more plans I have for the old gal mainly performance!
