> ya coulda got a nice 1st gen for about 5k… never get a cummins with a auto tranny tho… only differences in the 1st gen and 2nd gen is the body and injection pump, and unless u plan on make over 500hp ya dont need the p pump in the 2nd gen… powerstroke can be found for 5k too thats how much i paid for my 7.3… cant find a cheap duramax cuz there to new and the first 2 years are in scrap yard cuz they blow up at 100k… 12v cummin an a 7.3 will last 500k if not more, my buddies 7.3 o/d says 587k and it stopped working 4 years ago, trucks still running to this day

Yeah I thought about all that but for what I got this for it does what I need & I can’t complain.

Tires will do for now. They’re not too bad. 2nd vehicle so it doesn’t get too many miles on it. Cab lights will be coming off when I get the truck back.

Yeah but for what I’ll be towing I’ll be fine. I’ll be towing small project cars with a tow dolly & my dad’s kubota is only like 2500 lbs. Nothing major at the moment.
