haha, thats what I was gonna say. seriously though nice truck dude

[twgranger]

Nice truck nathan. Where are the 20" Dubs???? LOL

[hotroddal]

you should of bought a dodge with the hemi, it would of been alot better, ya know what I meen?

[Kintore]

Sweet truck Nathan! Like twgranger said, where the DUBS? LOL

[200xman]

I have the same truck but an 02 with the 360 and love it. Tell the guys asking "Where's the Dubs" that they look cool until you have to put tires on them. Tires for the 20s are over $300 a piece.

[03 ORANGE SHEE]

thats right todd, all the other three four doors had 20's , i thought of the tire prices as soon as i saw them, they had hemi's too, those two options were like $3000 extra, this has a 235 horse 4.7l v-8, same engine as in the grand cherokee's, i miss my 360, but the extra comfort in this cab makes up for it. my old 98 had 3.50 gears, this has 3.90's, the in dash computer says 15-17 mph on the highway, and 14-15 in town

[90nut]

Yea I have 20's on my truck and trust me tires aint cheap! Really looking forward to a new set this fall. Sets me back a grand every time. Stupid low pros. Oh and these aren't on a ram though.

[03 ORANGE SHEE]

todd, here's your 20's with 53 inch tires, 29 inches of lift, and 3 inch body

[85hondaatc125m]

nice truck, i think there might be a problem with it though, maybe you didnt notice:wondering ....its not a chevy!

No, Thats the opposite of the problem and the reason for him purchasing the truck, its not a Chevy, he didn't want it to break down while he was driving it,lol

[corndawg]

has dodge solved their tranny problems? or do they still go out every 50,000 miles:lol: i hear the new hemi is a boat ankor....a freind of mine bought a hemi ram new. its only got about 35k on it and its been in the shop 4 times for the same problem, the lifters wont keep adjustment

[brapp]

the new hemmi is verry dissapointing, my lil 5.3 vorteck has alot more pick up compared to the new hemi's and mines pushin 90,000 miles and still takes the new hemi's loland mines listed 2 inches and pulling 33's

[Oldshell4481]

my 97 ford f-250 5.7 351 has tons of power, but i get 11 mpg!!! im selling this thing this summer and buying a rice burner or something good on gas... and a 1985 monte carlo ss

[200xman]

todd, here's your 20's with 53 inch tires, 29 inches of lift, and 3 inch body

LOL I saw that on Ebay too. Still desn't look like enough lift to really clear the tires. Mines staying stock but I do have a 88 Wrangler and a 86 F350 4X4 Dually with a 460 that I will be doing up. Come springtime Mike and I will have to head out your way for a weekend and tear up those hills.

[mywifeknowseverything]

I think I Financed a Digital Camera for you as well:lol:

I see you went with the Pinkie Lifters Champagne Color...It suits you...:welcome:

[tracey]

[mudbogger]

My 2000 Ford F250 superduty with 44 inch tires and a V10 gas motor gets 6 mpg on the highway-can you beat that????Ha.

[phreakboy]

the new hemmi is verry dissapointing, my lil 5.3 vorteck has alot more pick up compared to the new hemi's and mines pushin 90,000 miles and still takes the new hemi's loland mines listed 2 inches and pulling 33's

Damn you must be puffin something, the HEMI is most definetly a great motor, and I am unsure where you guys heard of it being bad and having problems but I know that mine will smoke any other stocker truck out there even my buddies avalanche with the 8.1L, I have roasted chevys, fords, hondas, with a freakin car on the back of my truck with plenty of witness's. And ya know nothing Rots like a chebby,
Chevys rust and Fords break down and DODGE is there to pull them around.

Shee thats a nice ram and a good choice, I had to have the Hemi though, the reason you stated is also the reason I decided against the 20s too, that and they dont appeal to me that much. Besides mine will get some new 35's on my 17's soon. For a great site check out Dodgetalk.com, it has tons of information and is a great site. Also not sure if you are into big tires but most dont realise that 35's will fit stock on your truck. Have fun and enjoy.

[IrvSLedman]

haha The Hemis arnt the same any more, just Mopar Label on an engine now..Back in the day ill Give it credit the Hemi was a mean motor.. but Dodge just killed it, i just bought a dodge Shadow and DUDE! its got a hemi in it! 3.4L! Mopar can rot lol, Chevy all the way!! i got some buddies with 360's and one with had one with a Cummins Straight 6 best dodge ever, tons of power nice sound but still tons of problems bought it, and in the first month had to put like 800 into the front end.

[IrvSLedman]

Nice truck though. sorry got alittle heated on chevy bashing, dont take well to that lol.

[newramman02]

Hi, I dont know where you guys are buying tires at but, if your paying almost a grand for 4-Goodyear 275/60/20 Wrangler Hp Tires I would find another tire shop. if you go to www.quandtsonline.com and click on products, and then scroll down and click on tires theye sell new take off 275/60/20 Goodyear Wrangler HP's for $150.00 each, and 275/55/20 Goodyear Eagle GTII's for $150.00 each. I have dealt with them and they are pretty cool. They are located In Salem,IL. My Brother and I have a Small tire and wheel shop we run on the side and I know wholesale on the Goodyears are around $117.00 Each. That is about what any tire store pays for them. I also wanted to post a pic of my Dodge Ram it is a 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 SLT 5.9 Liter, with the Factory 20's and I have put 33x13.50x20 Super Swamper Irok Radials on it. as far as gas mileage, I did'nt buy the truck for gas mileage, I bought it because Dodges Are built very Heavy-duty. my truck weighs about 5,500 pounds, I have a friend who runs a large automotive salvage yard and he always says that a 1/2 ton Dodge Pickup is Equivalent to a 3/4 ton pickup form Ford or Chevy. I'm not knocking Ford or Chevy I also own trucks from those manufacturers, see for youself, look at the frame and axles of a Dodge Compared to The other Brands of Trucks. As far as the Transmission problems go I have owned 5-different new Dodges over the last 7 or 8 years and i have never had any kind of problem. I also currently have a 1994 Dodge 3/4 ton 2500 series that I use to pull some of my Asphalt Equipment with(my real job) and it has over 184,xxx miles and runs like a champ! still on the original engine and transmission!

[Billy Golightly]

The dodge is definetly setup more like a work truck. When I was shopping for mine I drove a Ford and it was smooth as glass riding, would have probably sagged 2ft if you put a bag of feed in the bed :rolleyes: I could grab the corner of the bed and shake the whole truck around. I tried doing that to the dodge and even with me throwing all my weight into it, it didn't move hardly at all. And then when I drove it, I knew that it was made for work and haulin stuff.

[trainingwheeler]

:lol: dodge the bullet guys chevys & even fords are better than dodges :w00t: the cummins deisels are cool

[phreakboy]

:lol: dodge the bullet guys chevys & even fords are better than dodges :w00t: the cummins deisels are cool
:rolleyes:
That why GM(chevy) is almost bankrupt and fords sales are down by like 12% and dodge is the highest selling truck right now:lol:
