I just got my first diesel and I am loving it! Wish I had gone with a "real" truck a long time ago.
Its a 98 or 98.5, 24 valve regular cab long bed. It has no options at all and I love it. Hand crank windows and a tape deck.. But it has a Cummins and that is all that matters. I am looking forward to picking your brains for help. I am not going to go power crazy yet cause its my DD. Later on maybe when I get another one.
