New Guy from Southern California

Howdy all, I'm new here so I thought id introduce myself since I've already been posting in the forums for a day or so and people are probably asking themselves, " Who the heck is this guy? "

My name is Roger, I'm 27 and was born and raised in Southern California (Palm Springs Area, Coachella Valley) I'm a lover of all things Dodge. I had a 98 1500 4x4, then an 06 1500 HEMI 4x4 that was the most modded truck i've ever owned, then recently (November 08) I bought my first CTD. It's an 08 2500 Quad Cab Short Bed 4x4 with the TRX4 Off Road Package and the 6.7 CTD with the Auto Trans. I've also owned a Jeep Rubicon so my truck is the 4th Mopar vehicle i've owned and my 3rd truck. I've been interested in diesels since driving my friends dad's 98 CTD back when I was in high school. Made the mistake of buying the HEMI in 06 based on the price and that I fell in love with it when I saw it and drove it. I have never driven a truck that has the power my new truck has. I love every minute behind the wheel, hearing the turbo whistle ( Cant wait to mod it to hear it even more) and the looks you get from people as you pass them by like no tomorrow in a big ole heavy truck!

I know some people on here. Donnie who ive never met and then Ed (BigHorn06) I also met some people from this site that I met at a GTG in Cerritos a couple years back. There were probably 10-12 CTD's there from this group. Matt (Seabee) organized that event.

Anyway, enough rambling for now. Feel free to say Hi and I look forward to making some new friends here, attending some GTG's, and learning more and more about my obsession, The Cummins Turbo Diesel!

Sounds like you have and have had some sweet rides.

Congrats on your first diesel...Once it gets in your blood, it's hard to get it out.
