You know a newer Dakota with a 3.3bt would be a bad little truck.

Yeah that was one of the sugestions buddy and I discussed.

You could have a bumper sticker saying "when I grow up I want to be a 2500"

I was debating about doing something like that, its easier to lift my sportbike into the bed of the Dakota then a 2500. Tune it to about 250hp and it would kick some hind end!

2005 Ford Super Duty. That would make a pretty cool truck.

I voted for the Chevy crew cab SFA, because I have thought of performing this conversion myself. However, since I have two pickups anyway, maybe a car?? That Monte Carlo with the Cummins on youtube is one of the coolest vehicles that I have ever seen! Maybe use a 65-73 Impala or any big 2-door car that looks good...... Sweet!!!!

Have you seen the Chevelle with the 600hp Duramax in it? I think the boys off pimp my ride did it, and it is either in diesel power or the other diesel mag that is out there.

i would like to put a 12 valve in a 2 wheel drive charger and put some 20's or 22's on it. The only problem is finding a ramcharger that's not rusted away.

Early Blazer with the top that removes all the way to the windshield, early 70s I guess it would be.

Shove that 12V into a 94 4 door chevy SRW 1 ton the most comfortable trucks on the planet. I have one my wife wont let me sell and as much as I hate to admit it It is way more comfortable than either of our dodges.
