Well I made the plunge and have ordered a 09 Dodge Truck Ram Mega Cab 3500 SRW 4x4 Laramie.
We live in England and work with the American Military. Ultimately we will go back to the States in a year or so and tow a 5th wheel trailer. My wife and I have been overseas so long we are going to travel the U.S. Of A.
The Cummins engine was the big part of the decision and hopefully we will be happy with the choice.
I am trying to gather as much info as I can and your site looks great !!

Take care,

We're glad you picked our site and the Cummins is why I bought the Dodge too. I know some will take offense, but if the Cummins would have been in a Ford or Chevy then that's what I'd be driving. I felt it was the best engine and after 36,000 miles I haven't ran into anything to change my mind.

Yes, nice fact the Dodge looks good too. What a package. Reminds me of me, when I was a younger man. Too bad I didn't have the ECM to go along with that

Just a quick note to say Hey. I couldn't be happier to be part of a group of 6.7 owners. I've already learned plenty from this forum, hence my motivation for joining. The rules, going forward, for the 6.7 are handsomely different that those of the 5.9. I see it as a step in the right direction for diesel owners and the future.
It's my first diesel. I glad it's a Cummins. It's also my mid-life crisis, sports car. Plenty of style and performance. I baby it. Probably too much.
Here's to all of you diesel techies who will fill the pages for us less knowledgeable. My hat's off to each of you. Thanks in advance for your insight and thanks to you folks who were insightful sufficient to provide this venue. I look forward to this forum unlike I have any other.

Welcome. I've been a long time diesel wrench and this is my first one also. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine. I usually driven big block gassers, although they were real fun, there isn't any thing like the Cummins.

Excellent, it's great to have you as a member and also makes me very happy I chose to start this site. We're a small group thanks to the high cost of diesel all summer but we're active and really into these 6.7L engines. I'd always heard about the poor quality of Chrysler products but after 40,000 miles I don't see it and couldn't be happier with my truck.

I recently got a gasser for a company truck which also includes tha gas card! I'm torn between driving the gasser and driving Bossy. I use the company truck mostly, but it falls short in the enjoyment department. I have several items of interest: intake, exhaust, suspension, tires, rims, and the list continues.

Thanks for producing such a specific site for such a specific audience! Glad to be onboard.

Hi everyone. I am new to forum. I got a 07 2500 mega cab with the 6.7 cummins. Great truck. Last summer we pulled a travel trailer to Sothern Illinois, Lebanon TN, Alabama and Florida and i got to tell you this truck rocks. The engine brake is nice to have. So far no problems yet and i am not expecting to have any after all is a Cummins.
