so here goes im a new diesel onwer but not dodge
as u can see in my sig its an 04 and ive done a few things
to it and i love it i will never own a gasser again

here is my ? i want another CTD its an 06 with 10 in lift
38 in toyo mts bully dog w/outlook s&b intake leather and loaded
my ? is the turbo is discolored brown im guessing it means its been hot
also the heat shield on the exhaust manny is also half discolored
i can get it for the payment i want but do u think it would be worth it
and ill post pics of my truck later on


Thanks for all the great info
ive been reading so far
and for the help on this

 

How many miles on the truck and what do they want for it? Sounds like what Im after, minus the gigantic lift.

 

they want 40 for it and it has just over 24000 miles truck looks great
and sounds strong

 

RUN, don't walk away from that truck, for 40K, buy new, not someones experiment, 10" lift, lots of maintaining & cost to keep it running, not to mention poor mpgs.

 

i agree- run away! buy new or a slightly used stock 5.9-and do the build up your self- that way you know there isn't any hidden problems and you are intimate with every aspect of the truck!!

 

i agree buy new, you can get that similar truck in the low 30s right now.

 

The factory rebuilt Turbo's all seem to be, or turn, brown really fast.

 

If I was going to spend 40k on a truck, I would get a new one and do my own mods and not hope someone else did it right. Oh, and welcome to DTR!

 

ok i ran from that deal but ran smack in to this one


07 mega with the hemi 7800 miles
6in lift is going on and 37 in toyo ats only going to be a in town truck with some small trips to the city loaded leather heated bunz nice 20 in wheels not sure on the brand one thing i didnt know was the 1500 megacab has 8 lug wheels looks cool with 1500 badges and 8 lugs now for the price 32,000 out the door pics when the lift gets put on and next to the my CTD in the drive way

 

You can get a brand new 2007 1500 Mega for about $29k.

Just a thought.

Have a good one.

 

well im gettn with the lift and 5 tires and all that comes with the lift as in shocks and it a spring lift not pucks

 

Hemi. Big tire, lift, and a Hemi. The fuel economy will be terrible!!! Get another CTD.

 

i would but they arent cheap now for some reason every1 wants one
its for my wife and i cant find another mega other then the one for 40k
but what really sucks is we signed paper on saturday morning
on the new truck and my wifes truck was in a hit and run in front of our house while i was helping a friend get his plow on
his 4 wheeler so now i have to get it fixed before the dealship will take it
