JJ1o87 Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Hey guys/girl, haven't really had to post in awhile but I thought I would fill you in on a little news that I'm quite excited to share. My father has a 2003 Tahoe with 40000 on the clock. It gets washed once a year if it's lucky. The transmission is starting to go so he decided to have me get him a new truck. Long story short, I ordered him a new truck last sunday. What did I order you ask? 2011 Dodge Ram 2500, loaded with a Cummins Diesel. Needless to say the 6-8 week wait is going to kill me. Let the off-roading begin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOW if I hated him, then without a doubt - buy him a Chevy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJ1o87 Posted August 22, 2010 Author Share Posted August 22, 2010 Forgot to mention the color. It's the new rugged brown metallic with the two-tone (whose color I forgot). It should look like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to my spreadsheet averaging every tank of fuel I have used in the truck 17.5 miles to a gallon of diesel. Also, your mileage will not be good until you get 20,000 on the truck.

whiterp199 Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 The new Fords and Chevys are putting out pretty darn close to 800 ft lbs of torque now. The cummins is falling behind now. It should still be a nice truck though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
