My opinion==> I'd be imbarresed to even stand by that thing. It's an embarassment to the Cummins name. Others may have a diffrent opinion. I'm ok with that.

If you got rid of some the junk on there like the wing, too tall stacks, 1' wide bug shield, and the front mud flaps. Basicly make it look more clean it would not be that bad looking of a truck.

I'll second that Daddy's Diesel, take off alot of that crap, give a killer paint job and it wouldn't be such a bad truck. As it stands now, it looks like it drive through Pep Boy's accessory section; and everything that could, stuck to the body.

I think that is pretty awesome! I always liked the earlier Chevys. What a complement to the Cummins name, you never heare of a Powertstroke or Duramax being swapped into a Dodge...that definitely tells you something about the Cummins name and reputation!

i agree, take all the garbage off it would look decent.

this truck dont look too bad, cept for the double headlights and grill. i think a truck this big is pointless though.

I'll bet it's a lot of fun to drive in a truck with a 6" body lift.
