Keep it on subject or this thread is gone....

 

I agree! Current Dodge trucks aren't really known for their transmissions so they should put a real nice one in there and give everyone something to talk about.

 

there will be no benz motor in the dodge....stop trying to stirr confusion....its like bringing up "ford owns cummins" this and that..or some twin turbo powerstroke story...

 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Guys there already in the dodge. Go to your Coachman travel trailer dealer. Look at his small motor homes. Not sure what size chassy but appears to me about 1 ton ,has duals,and a dodge cab, with Mercedes Benz Diesel badge right on the front fender. So maybe thats where there putting these M B motors. And somebody better learn to fix them , so if there a dodge truck the dodge dealers gotta start getting updated here.

 

Unfortunately, since I work for Freightliner, I have the privelidge to work on the Dodge & Freightliner Sprinters quite frequently. What you are reffering to is the Sprinter cab/chassis model with a motorhome body.

 

Wrong, Detroit doesn't even compare to Cummins in emissions, actually no one is really even close and Cat was just told no on their Acert patent. Cummins is the Heavy Diesel engine supplier for Dodge till' 2010 or 2011. dodge is only 12% of Cummins engines (450,000) units per year. Dodge is the one who needs Cummins most.
And you can get Fords w/5.9 or 8.3's. And detroits don't dyno to 1000lbs on EGR either, not at 330 horses.

 

That's what I was thinking and I don't consider them a Dodge.

 

Well you fellas are right ,it is a sprinter cab chassy. BUT its still a Dodge. On the other hand though its just a itty bitty 2.7 liter. Not quite the motor I'm looking foreward to getting in my new 2006 3500 cummins dually, thats supposed to be here on MONDAY!!!!!

 

Jack I never strayed off topic and mentioned how good the GEORGE FOREMAN GRILLS are. I try to keep in line.

 

By badge only!

 

Odd I just purchased mine...had a hell of a time finding one used with less than 300k...seems everyone here wants 'em and the dealers are getting top dollar...maybe you'd be better off to check out selling it back east!!!

 

Then maybe you can help me out!!

Let the dealerships in your area know about this one!!

Hell, I put it up for sale here for 60 days at a price LOWER than what all the websites (KBB-NADA-Edmunds-etc) said it was worth. I figured since this place has some 22,000 plus members from all over the country(back east included) that I'd get at least a couple of inquires. I mean, they tell 2 friends about it, those 2 friends tell 2 friends, etc, and maybe word would get out to 100,000 people or more.

What came about of my ad???

Nothing - - - Zip - - - Zilch.................................

I will pay anyone here a $1,000 Finders Fee if they can find me a buyer. My word is golden..............

Now, to stay on topic..........................

Mercedes in a Dodge??

I heard this rumor some 2 years ago. It may not be a rumor much longer. Huh?

Do I care?

Nope......................................

Not when it comes to the "Dodge Ram".

And I have very valid reasons why.

 

How old are you?

 

No wonder you can't sell it, who wants a 2wheel drive, reg cab SLT. A completely useless truck where I live no matter what badge it has on it.

 

Old enough to realize the error of my ways.

But obviously, wasn't old enough to realize what a piece of shyt the Dodge Ram was.

Kiss that..............................................
