Chevy guy converted, pics

I had an 05 2500HD with a 6.0 4x4 but the gas mileage was killing me, so I had to get rid of it and since I really wanted a manual tranny, I decided to go with the cummins turbo diesel







Sorry the pics suck Ill try to get some new ones later.

Enjoy

You have no idea, they had to ship it in from PA, waiting was so hard. But well worth it.

Nice looking truck.

In the first picture it looks like your tire is about to slide off the lug nut studs.

btw, I've never seen a "TRX4" sticker come w/ a truck new from the factory. What the deal on that?

TRX4- Sirius satellite radio, tow hooks, limited slip diff, fog lamps, t-case and fuel tank skid plates, body color grille, off road/on road tires.

As far as that wheel goes I think its just that the wheel is cranked pretty far. Thanks for all the comments, I really love this truck.

Don't ALL 4X4`s come standard with tow hooks? If not, Dodge is really cutting corners to not give them away to 4X4 buyers. I know GM and Ford has them standard!

the sticker price was 39,395 I got it for 35500 and they brought it in from a few states away. Well worth it in my opnion. Ive got about 5k in options other than the CTD, and I dont have an automatic.
