I like it .... especially the idea of having the PTO option on the tranny. Lots of possibilities on the farm with that.

Not too sure about the headlight assembly ... looks like it came off of a GM truck .. hmmmmm.

Great first post by the way .... welcome aboard.

Schew, it IS available with a Hemi. I was getting worried

Is that the same hood& fender as you mega cab guys have? Looks a little Fordish?

I like it.

That's the '06 Body style.

Not vehicle specific....


The 6.7L Cummins is 20HP LESS than the current 5.9L, but the TQ is the same, the emissions are cleaner, and the turbo provides more exhaust braking power than a standard exhaust brake.

Also, the 6-speed auto will operate similar to the Alliuson in the GM's, Downshifting, Holding a gear, etc. except for the fact that it will go in neutral to save fuel when at a complete stop...

It goes into neutral ??? Isn't the fact that the tranny is engaged what drives the pump to ensure cooling and lubrication for the transmission ??

And less horse power ... . I wonder how hard / expensive bombing them is going to be.
