Hey guys and gals, my name is Colton. Just bought my first Cummins about a month ago. Been on the site since before then learning a ton about these trucks. And before anyone asks about my name on here.....My fun car is a 91 Honda CRX built from the ground up with a B16 engine. Wanted a way to tie my name from other sites that people may recognize me from. That's right..I've got a B-Series engine in my daily driver truck and my fun car .

I had an 03 Silverado 1500 before and with a baby on the way was in the market for an ext cab. I came across a rare find and immediately sold my truck and bought this Cummins. Not really in the market for a 3/4 ton but I've always liked the Cummins and it gets better mileage than my little Silverado and I just couldn't pass this truck up.

It's a 99' 24v NV4500 ext cab Laramie SLT 2wd with 60k original miles!!!!! Truck looks new inside and out besides a couple very small dings. No DASH CRACK! No stains or anything. Looks like it's barely been used. Old man owned. Pretty much pulled a camper seasonally and thats about it. Garage kept. Plans are to keep this truck as clean as I can and only a few tasteful modifications. It's my daily driver and it's a truck so I don't intend to treat it like a sports car or "roll coal" and advertise that my truck is improperly tuned and I'm wasting fuel. I have a fun car to drive hard and play with. I'd like to put a little beefier tires on it, slightly larger exhaust, intake, and programmer with the only intention to increase fuel mileage. Only exception to that being a possible leveling kit. Here are a few pics.

Pic I shot when I first got it. Have since lost the camper and soon to order a hard bed cover from "Undercover" for it.

And for the heck on it one of the fun car. I've just always liked these little cars. I've had it for over 7yrs and its been off the road for 4 as I've restored every single thing on it. Hope to be driving it again before summer.
