Take the earlier advice: Leave now. If you have that &quot;minor&quot; problem thing, there's lots of trouble waiting for you here. <br><br>Nice suspension.<br><br>Rob<br><br>PS Yes you want the diesel.

I was in the same boat that you are and had a real sour taste in my mouth every time I had to stop at the GAS station with my Ford/460! I decided to sell my Ford, Jeep CJ7, and my Mitsubishi 3000GT to get the Dodge. I always wanted one because they looked the best. I knew I wanted the diesel for towing/hauling and fuel mileage. I finally got the truck I have wanted since 1994! I love the diesel and will NEVER have a GAS truck again. I have finally broken the 10,000 mile mark and it's GREAT!<br><br>Get the diesel RAM and don't look back!
