Stand by your Ram

[FFutch]

Hi all,kind of new here but get tired of cummins only wrapped in a
Dodge mentality.Maybe i'm kinda biased,but our family has run Dodge trucks for as long as i can remember.Starting with a 73 D100.This poor truck went thru H*ll.Including 3 brothers driving(ripping & tearing as Dad used to say).Loaded and hauled 9000#
of scrap in the bed .the bumper was 2" off the ground.constantly
beat and used as a skidder ,dragging out up to 20"-30' trees out.Old truck made it to 300k and the engine still ran(318)but md. road salt took its toll.Since then we have run several Dodges into the ground all with high mileage all very reliable.This is my first diesel pickup and I like the whole package.Being a diesel mechanic also made the which diesel engine question crystal clear.I don't agree with everything that D.C. does.But I think Dodge trucks get a bad rap sometimes,Not here as bad as other sites.But i still here that "wrapped in Dodge"saying too often . Of course everyone is entitled to there opinin,this is mine.So defend your "old Dodge"every chance you get.Remember there are 2 Rams out there with over a million miles on them.Not just the engine made it that far.When the PHORD andCHUBBY guys can point to one and make that statement I'll be a beleiver.Sorry so long just had to rant a little .
