Hello from Cochrane, Alberta

Have researched many trucks and have decided to buy a 2011 Dodge 2500 diesel when they come out. Looking to purchase a mega cab and will put on a leveling kit and 35" tires on it. Lots of info here for guys like me and many of my questions have been answered. I hunt and fish a lot and tow a small 5th wheel. Will probably order the truck with 4:10 gears to compensate for larger tire.

Welcome Gerry

Ton's of info on here and a whole lot of local guys around to help with info.

There are a few members in Cochrane, I spent 11 years there and am now just up the road in Sundre.

If you want to meet everyone in force, there is a dyno get together in Red Deer this Sunday the 12th.

You can't go wrong with this group.

Jeff

Welcome to the DTR.

The local chapter has been known to work miracles...LOL From tool exchanges to roadside help.

Hope to see you out at one of our events! Scroll on down to the Chapters area and under ABDTR#5 is our local chapter.

Thanks

Appreciate the welcome. I am planning on purchasing my truck in Red Deer, they seem to be able to give me the best deal at SouthWest Dodge; you guys have any experience with them ? Also, can you suggest the best folks for aftermarket tires and wheels as well as the leveling kit ( although I believe the dealer can do it ) Southwest had a trx sitting in front of their dealer when I was shopping a couple of weeks ago and it looked sweet. Didn't have all the options I want but was very tempting ! Did you guys in Red Deer see it ?
