I made a small video of my truck

Hi guys. I made a small clip of my truck, It mainly shows the difference with the "stock" 215hp 24valve automatic and with the tst pm3 on level 9. Other mods are listed on my signature,except I do not use my Hypertech to add power, only to read dtcs and calibrate the speedo.

At last I'm able to see what it looks like outside the cab.

PS: I love my truck and my transmission.

You should be able to stack that hypertech with the TST I think? Its kinda like an Edge Ez or Smarty type box IIRC, so it should be a nice stack.

Thats a sweet looking truck and a cool vid.

Thanks guys for your comments.

I let a friend of mine to drive my truck few hours ago, it's the first time when someone other than me drives it and he was laughing all the time when he pushed the pedal...

And he has a 2wd 1995 8.0l V10 Ram 3500. He was amazed by the power and specially the torque of the mighty Cummins. He said there's no change of his V10 beating my truck... With the TST on level 9 of course...

Oh and one sedan civic tried to pass us when my friend was driving on the highway... The Civic owner even downshifted to maybe 3rd gear ...

My friend was just laughing and passed that easily in od at 2000rpm with only a hint of throttle

But still... I need more power!

The locals?

Usually they look it mouth wide open, little kids point it at fingers and shout to their parents to look and allmost everybody double check the rear end when I pass them.

And the wood bezel is original, I think I have every optional equipment on my 98.5/99 dually,even the leather seats. Except fog lights and 10cd changer. That truck got everything what I was looking for. Except double heated power seats... But those were available only in 2000+ trucks but Intense Blue Pearl colour wasn't.

And I don't have a #53 block either! What a jackpot, I'm really,really happy with my truck. Cracking block would be a real pain in the neck on the other side of the globe with no Dodge or Cummins dealers...

I like your color choice (I have a 2500 in the same color).
How hard was it for you to find that truck in Finland?

Extremely hard, I shipped it from Florida last August

I havent seen any other dually with sport package/intense blue pearl,automatic,4x4,diesel and with all optional equipments...

And I do search ebay and autotrader.com in a weekly basis, just for fun. And mine had 93k on the clock when I bought it.

I'm 99.9% sure mine is unique here. Yes we have few duallies but not in this colour. And I haven't never seen a 4x4 dually live here.

We have one popular site for used cars in our country and it's Nettiauto(webcar).
Here you can see what kind of Dodge Rams we have for sale in our whole country, a year ago we did not have 3rd gen Rams for sale in here allmost at all. And I still don't want one because the price and the speedlimiter to 50mph.

You can read our laws and policys more in topis whic I made few months ago.
