Ability to pull 7 Tons of Motel Space up a hill
 

I was leary at first but after I converted a 1996 RAM 2500 4X4 Extended Cab, Long Bed by installing the entire 5.9L Gen I Cummins and the power train out of a 1992 RAM W250, and making upgrades of the smaller Turbine Housing, 5 inch Turbo Back Exhaust, High Performance Injectors, and making minor fuel adjustments I was so amazed at the amount of power to pull this 7 Ton (motel on wheels) for my wife up mountain passes.

I do believe that once I install the Denny T Fuel Pin and a larger Inter-Cooler however, that I will be able to get up the hills without having to be floor boarded in O/D to doing that!!

I love this engine!! :U:

cause my 93 screams old school cowboy cadillac.........tu-tone creme and maroon paint, western hauler bed, alcoas........:rocking:

my 90 model cause now i can beat up on the newer trucks with less money involved, cause we all know it makes them mad when they get beat by a old farm truck.........:rocking:

oh and they are both paid for......

i love the way she shakes when i turn off the key.

i love the quarter gallon of diesel she shoots out at start up.

I love that even after driving a Common Rail with a full billet tranny, I still like to drive my 17yr old, non lock up truck more.

so far i got 3 first gens and they cost me the same as a new regular cab, short bed, V6 automatic truck.........oh and soon to possibly have a fourth 1st gen.......77 1 ton 4x4 4-speed truck.......

We've got 4 Cummins trucks. My '91 D350, my brothers '97 2500, my dad's '97 2500 and my other brothers '03 Common Rail.

I still like to drive mine the most. :U: (My brothers '97 is real fun to drive too though.

I love how I can leave that pimped out Cobalt 8 lengths behind by the time I hit the 60 km speed limit in town,without even making any smoke.Then when they speed by,tap the throttle to give em a puff to show them you had WAAAAY more fuel left.Then laugh when they get pulled over.I love the fuel mileage and the power.I love opening the back window before I shut her down and just bliping the throttle.I love my 5 inch straight pipe stack.

Its more fun than my 07 and I don't have to worry about scratches

I LOVE the way I get looks of jealousy and awe from all those 2nd and 3rd gen owners as I drive down the road. and I love my original ram hood ornament

I love pulling into the local starbucks to meet the girlfriend, and having soccer moms look at me, like, "you have to be kidding" sorry, but my long wheelbase truck just doesnt turn like your dodge journey, you HAVE to get out of my way!
