Hey,

My name is Virginia, I'm 25 and I live in northern Los Angeles county, CA.

I have a 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 5.9L 24V Cummins Turbo Diesel 4x4.

My first vehicle I ever drove/owned was a '06 Dodge Ram 1500 5.9L. Loved that truck . . .

My Dodge is my daily driver. I drive it to school, have fun on my mile long dirt road I live up, and I have fun thinking of things I eventually want to do to modify it . . . But that takes time and money, so I'm starting off with small things for now.

My dodge has a gooseneck hitch, towing air bags, just put in new stock tail lights and HID headlight bulbs. I'm considering smoking out my tail lights and headlights, but haven't decided yet.
Once I graduate in May with my bachelors degree, I'm planning on painting my truck black. Haven't decided between flat black or gloss black yet.

I'm also considering doing a front leveling kit. Got a quote for new shocks and leveling kit to be installed for $450, so that's on the list of possible things to do as well.

So, yea . . . . Hi everyone

to DB!

I would say before all that cosmetic stuff that you get an aftermarket lift pump like FASS or AirDog and a fuel pressure gauge. This is to keep the correct fuel pressure to your very expensive Injection Pump.

Fuel Pressure Gauge is a cheap way to avoid major issues later on.
