Hey Trapper. Welcome to the board! I've got essentially the same truck as you... bought it back in November and love it! Just beware... the HP bug will hit you quick! Lots of good info on this site. Have a good un!

Welcome to DTR. Be warned that your name is almost the same as a couple of our more notorious forum members. Sounds like a nice truck you've got there- '01 is a good year, almost as good as the 02's =P

I'm the other Big Blue, notorious for Nitro Methane, Electric Twins, and Bad Advice. My truck goes fast on nitro, slow on straight diesel, and I plan to test how tough the cummins motor truly is. I change my oil between 7k and 10k, I clean my K&N Filter every 30K, And I bark my turbo daily. I slip my clutch, spin my cheap buckshot mudders, and smoke out all dmax's and powerjokes that tailgate or street race. Last weekend I took Blue to Moab for Jeep Safari weekend and I found some sand in fourth gear and some open dirt roads for power sliding. This is the toughest dang truck that I have ever abused, and I will never sell it so buyers need not be wary of this truck!!
