Didn't want the 6.0 diesel anyway, heard of to many problems with them overall. Guess what I'm looking for is something to mod fairly easy and can hold up to the amount of power I want to put in it. I know I will probably have to upgrade some stuff, just like I would a gas engine. When I first started looking at these types of trucks, I want to go with the banks bundles, but reading some threads on here, most people steer away from them, so I'm still learning.
Two guys at work have 06 dodge 2500's. both are 6-spds and they love them. Going to talk to one of my buddy's into letting me drive his. He has an edge tuner on his.
if you want somethin to bomb fairly easy go with a 94-98 dodge with the 12 valve cheapest motor to get big power from

well fellas, ended up getting a 2006 Ford F350 Amarillo Limited Edition, needed to get out from under both of my cars I had. Now saving money overall. It has a 6" or 8" lift, 38x13.50x18 tires. Rear airbags, Magnaflow header back exhaust, from what I can see.
