hmmm i love the 3.07 rear and the 29 mpg that come withit when the pump is turned up and the engine is hooked up to the ever infamous that i have yet to have a problem with(just wait itll blow tomaro) getrag 360. i love the seats that feel like seats and the chicks that cant believe that the truck is as old as they are the ease of opening a hood and not needin ------- diagnostic computer to figure out what hasnt gone wrong yet. hate the stock turbo downpipe tho love the starter bolt next to the engine block. hate the light rearend on a 2wd on a wet road really sucks in snow. love how everybody wants me to find them one cheap HAHAHA SUCKERS

 

I love the black cloud that slowly floats away after I start it up.

I love looking over at the poser in his lifted Stroker that sits as high as my stock first gen in the parking lot every other day and smiling while I flick the ignition and leave while he's sitting there cranking with white smoke pouring out of one of his two stacks...

I love the fact that I don't think I could break the truck if I tried.

I love the 70s style aerodynamics, it slices through the air...Like a SLEDGEHAMMER!!!

I love the fact that the seat springs supply more suspension than the suspension over a speed bump.

I love it when I see ten faces turn when I fire it up in a crowded parking lot.

I love the fact that it sounds more like a large piece of heavy equipment than a pickup, and that there's a reason for that.

I love that girls have a hard time getting into my truck with skirts or tight pants on, and that its at its stock height.

I love the fact that my truck has nearly 300,000 miles on it and shows absolutely no signs of its age other than the body and interior.

I love it when I go into a drive through and have to reach down to the window, and that I can't even reach the drive through atm without unbuckling and sticking my torso out the window.

I also love the looks I get when I squeeze the giant thing through a drive through, into a parking spot, or between two cars, that appear substantially less distant than neccessary.

I love the fact that I can feel the clicking on and off of the heat grid through the floor and my shoes like someone is tapping the underbody with a hammer.

I love the fact that if I lose the entire electrical system and the power drops so low that the guages and dash lights go dim and then out, im still truckin along like nothing happened and it goes all the way to town and right to my parking spot.

I love the fact that everything under the hood is operated via hoses, cables, and rods, and that there are a total of about 8 wires running from the motor to the chassis.

I love Dodge for building a truck over 2 decades ago that was so far ahead of the competition just by using overbuilt parts and legendary CUMMINS power, that it still keeps up with the trucks built with 20 more years of technology in both power, and efficiency.

The rarity factor.

The guillotines also known as power windows.

I love passing Toyotas up South Pass with a car on a flatbed behind me...And knowing that we're both probably getting the same mpg.

Im pretty sure that my truck starts faster in 0* weather when its not plugged in, than any other/newer truck does in 90* weather. And it does it every time.

I love it when my mirrors flap up and down like my truck is trying to take off and fly when im on a bumpy road...

I love the funky folding split bench seat that I thought was broken the first time I folded it forward cuz it folded towards the middle, and I love the center facing rear jumpseats.

I love the manual hubs that stick out of the front wheel so far that they work as steps to access the under-hood.

I love that I bent a cheap lug wrench trying to take my lugs off for the first time before I realized that these truck's lug nuts take more torque than most Hondas make.

I love that I have so many lug nuts that neither NAPA, Oreilleys, or auto Zone carry enough of the same one to buy a new set to replace the old rusty open ended ones.

I love the time it takes to pour a new oil change through a funnel.

I enjoy the album of music I get to listen to during the half hour drain time during an oil change.

I love that instead of looking up the oil filter number in the little book, I just find the biggest one and grab it.

I love the sound of the turbo as I let off the pedal.

I love the fact that the parts are so cheap that its cheaper do do a brake job or something on this truck than it is to do it on a car, even when my rotors require 3x as much metal as the car's.

Vent ext cab windows, Vent door windows, and the driver's side kickpanel vent. Pure awesomeness.

I love watching people that haven't been in my truck before fumble around for the door handle while trying to get out in the dark and telling them that its by their butt.

The fact that CUMMINS TURBO DIESEL and DIESEL FUEL ONLY are printed front and center on the dash.

I love the grille thats about as wide as some small cars are long.

I love that the top of the grille on my stock truck is at chin height for smaller people.

I love the 500+lb axles that comprise a 7th of the stock truck's weight while the motor comprises the rest of the first half.

I love the blinkers that you could stuff a partially deflated football into.

I love the tranny cooler under the ext. cab seat.

I love that the front leafs are as thick as the rear leafs on most half tons.

I love the 19' 8" total length of the truck and the 13' 8" wheelbase.

I love that I can almost lay straight across the front bench seat and therefore the cab comfortably sleeps two.

I love the front seat that comfortably seats four and the rear that not quite as comfortably seats another four if the other truck your with can't make it through the terrain.

 

Get a room with it

 

I think you missed one about girls with skirts and the second to last part... Not exactly the way I fly man. Thanks for the opinion, but im gonna pass it up and just continue using it as a room.

 

i love how my tail lights are about to fall out because she shakes and radles so much!

 

The simplicity.

 

I love the king pins can never beat the king pins
I love the Vent windows of course and like ez said the drivers side floor vent.
I love the way I can dim highbeams behind me for the drivers with my tail pipe.
I love that a no first gen looks or sounds the same

 

This . . .

 

Very nice

 

Did you shift into 4WD before the run?
