What truck to purchase

Posted

I have a 2001 Quad Cab Cummins 4x4 short box and I love my truck, especially since I haven't had a truck payment in the last 8 years.:hyper: I purchased my truck new but my kids are not getting any smaller and that back seat isn't getting any bigger. I got permission from "head-quarters" that I can start looking for a new/used truck. I refuse to buy a new truck due to the $50k+ price tag so a used truck is in order. I have a larger 4" turbo on my truck along with the BHAF system, full gauges and of course 2 new fuel pumps. So, my question is what truck (year) would you purchase. I would like to stick with my Dodge but honestly I am open to any diesel truck. Do any of them come with a 4" turbo vs. the 3" originally on my 2001 Cummins? My new truck must have 4 full doors and 4 wheel drive is a necessity. Lets hear it, what trucks should I be looking at and why??:think:

With most injector failures there are initial indications, and during a failure there are indications, the block doesn't have to be lost. Some might throw a code, but only if it is an electrical failure. Good filtering really helps, as does good fuel (lubricity wise).

Has anyone gone over 200k with one set of injectors? I mean does good filtering and lubricity cure it?
