It's been the other way around for the last 2 years, and I'm sure will shift again within the next 4 weeks.

Do I think I hear that maybe you wish it only had 6 cylinder???
thank you... i can't believe all the comps the truck is getting on this forum. very nice group of people, and you all seem to go out of your way to help fellow members.......it feels like home..........

and you do hear good. i sure do wish it was a diesel.... at the time, no one had one available around here, and i had to dump the h2. those are really bad on gas...............

while it helps to have an oil burner here, i think one of the admins(wannadiesel) went several years without one..

Welcome to DTR anyway, we'll convert you somehow!

As slick as that truck is I'd just do a motor swap. That is a very nice looking truck glad you decided to stop lurking and come on in. Welcome to the DTR

I would think it would involve a lot more than a motor swap... trans, wiring harness, etc.........now that you have peaked my interest, i wonder just what it would involve ?
thanks for the welcome................................

That truck is bad to the bone! With all the money you've done in mods, why not sell and buy the diesel instead? Either way, no one can take away from you what you've done to that truck! It looks sweet!

One more quick question, how do those stacks sound with that gasser!

thats a thought, but i would have to re-invest in all the goodies again....plus the cost of the truck......i'm sure it will happen in the end...
I'm running flowmaster 50 3'' into dual 2.5'' from there dual into the bed, swept side to side, and into 3'' heartthrop tuned stacks, to answer your question more directly. sounds like a hemi on steroids. with all its weight, this truck still moves very quick. i usually leave everything a half a block back.....

thanks for the comps..........to bad its not a deisel, I might qualify for truck of the month........
