I am looking for to the 400,000 miles click. One can only wander if the 1,000,000 mark will fit on that little screen.

I was thinking about photochoping another zero in there for fun.

I don't like the thought of a $12,000 motor that's mine fix now.

you mean you didn't pull over because everything started exploding due to the 100k $elf de$truct timer dodge planted on your truck??

"is that the cummins warranty, or only chryslers? i am the second owner of my truck so i am screwed anyways right?"

there is no cummins warranty, dodge buys them without a warranty and provides the 100k engine warranty. As the 2nd owner, i think you can pay to transfer the warranty over, but mine was different in 05.

My drivetrain will be going strong when everything else on the truck has been replaced twice and is broken again.

I'm right behind you. I'm at 90600 miles and counting.

BTW all, I stopped in my local cummins dealer yesterday and the parts guy told me they will now sell you a complete CR engine NEW not reman for around $7K.

yep, dodge 100k warranty on the cummins covers engine and fuel supply components like cp3 and injectors.

I think the first thing I'll do is have the injectors done by Don when I have the money. It's got an intermittent rough idle that I can't track down, and I'd like to have them done to make sure I'm not going to loose one and launch the motor, and of course for better economy! Ok fine, it's the extra power I'm after. Especially after my wife decided she like 12-14K 5th wheels instead of the 8Kers.
