Love the truck except for two things...

It's too quiet and I can't mash the pedal and get a huge cloud of black smoke behind me. My 95 was falling apart, but man, it was fun to drive.

I miss rolling up next to a fancy car at a stop light and seeing them roll up their windows

Hmm,

lets see, another vote for parking the thing, Escalading diesel prices are beyond our control, oh and the fact that i kick myself, i replaced my centerforce dual force clutch with a factory stock... PRIMARY reason i cannot get more out of my truck right now.. Shoulda gotten a southbend!! Im savin pennies for it tho. I also hate the "love momentos" my x left on it, and finally the dog in the headache rack that i aint torched yet.. Just hope that the fuel filter change aint a big issue tho.. i hated that on my idi....

Driveline vibrations that DC can't fix. Ticks me off big time to the point of jumping ship.

The availiability (sp?) of parts. If it is older than a 94 its hard to find almost anything. Anybody know where I can find a 3 gauge pillar pod for a 92?

Chasing fuel line air leaks, water leaks, door rust, electrical problems. Oddly enough, i still love the truck. If it werent for the Cummins 12v, this truck would be in the classifieds. Im just looking at it as a restoration project. It will be in top notch shape soon.

You hate most about your truck?

Gotta be that lousy stock auto trans. DC should be ashamed to sell that thing for all these years. But hey I knew that when I bought it. The truck has many more positive issues than negatives. I am just dealing with the dang tranny.
