I had a diesel truck for a couple of years, sold it about a year ago. Selling it was my biggest regret, it was such a fun truck. It was a 1990 Dodge 3/4 ton with the cummins I6. MPG was about 20-25. Top speed was 78mph, but it would pull anything. After this pic was taken I put 33's on it. I straightpiped it, and turned up the injection pump. At full throttle it would blow a cloud of black smoke. I bought it from my dad, and together we put on 110,000 miles. When I sold it at 220,000 miles it ran as good as new. Diesels can last over a million miles, a great investment. Dont really know where you could go online. BTW my truck sold for $4500, so they can be had pretty cheap.

I have a 1994 Chevy K1500 extended cab/short bed with a 6.5 turbo. Currently about 190,000 miles. Gets roughly 14-20 MPG. I'm getting ready to put a 4" exhaust and guages on it. In the next year I want to add a chip, and maybe some other mod. Great truck. It gits. Stock is 180HP/360 FT-LBS of torque, I'm aiming to have 200/400+ by the time I'm done. Awesome truck, does more than I could ever ask of it.

hEY RIDEICON WHATS CHP SAYING? Is your bumper hieght to high . What about dropping your bumper hieght but leaving the truck up. Also you might want to check most states with a bumper high law state that you take the measurement with the truck fully loaded. With that being said most cops when you press the issue will back down. But I warn you to do you homework on your states laws befor you press the issue.

VERY NICE TRUCK
