Average age on DTR
21 here, and feel older every day workin in the heat. I also like the older crowd here. I love getting info from older, more experienced folks. Never too prowd to learn from someone thats been there and done it. Plus like said before, nice family oriented site, that keeps all the bickering and smack talking to a minimum. I've been on a couple of sites where if you accidently type the wrong thing you get your rear end tore out. Lots of internet tough guys elsewhere. Its almost like one big happy family here, with people we've never even actually met.

I'm 50. Been thinking I was 35 until a few weeks back. Now?.........80
I posted in the HELP section back in Jan '08 when my Dad was up here in -25 degree Winter weather, having issues with his '98 24V CTD. You folk's were great.
Sadly, my Dad just passed away. (June 11/09) I flew down to Miami, drove down to Key Largo and loaded his truck/35' 5th wheel and headed back North to Ontario, Canada. The truck performed flawlessly....................my Dad however, passed away in the Hospital 5 days later.
I now possess his prized possession. A 47,000 mile 1998 3500 CTD dually.
I lovingly just washed and detailed this beast.
I'II be honest.................I 've never owned a diesel and know very little about them. I have nobody in the area that I live in that works on "smaller" diesel trucks (or seems to want to and that's why I was here back in '08)
Please pass on any tidbits you may think of, Guy's. I want to maintain and preserve my Dad's truck. It will see no Winter's.
Thank You.

I think everyone feels old lately the economy and the way people treat each other any more sucks. I am 29 and I don't have any energy and just always bummed out ..... unless I am at a tractor pull :-) haha.


I have been doing hard physical work (lived on a farm) since i was 11 or 12.
...It will get worse in another 5 years...
