Yeah I hear ya there. I hate owing money too but right now I don't see any other way for me to get into a decent truck. It would take me a long time to save up 3500 where I'm working now. My plan is to get into a good truck, make a few months of payments on it then I'm heading to Texas to find a better job before I snap at my current one. For once, I'd like to have a truck that isn't a constant project just to keep it on the road.

What's wrong with PHP? I've heard multiple times that they're just as good as TS, TW, Beans, Swamps, etc...

I hear ya on not wanting to have to keep messing around with a truck just to be able to drive it. Good luck with a loan though, I hope you get it and that you get the truck. If you get the new truck, I'd sell that old one and use that to lower the loan payments.

I'm just a fan of TW, to be honest. Beans and swamps are good too. But I'm just picky

Plan on it. The cash from selling it will either go toward a couple payments or fuel for the road trip. I'll probably set it aside and use only what I have to on the road for fuel/food/etc and leave the rest for payments while I'm looking for a new job.

Does anyone have any experience with the banks stuff? Is the chip one with different levels or is it just plugged in and can't change it without putting in a whole new tune?

Assuming this truck hasn't had a full exhaust system put in, this is my plans:

3" downpipe into 5" Aussie stacks via a 2"x6" stack box. Think I should go 3" DP to 4" into the stack box, then into the 5" stacks or just run 3" pipe to the box, then the stacks? Do you guys think a 2x6 will be too restrictive? Its a piece left over from my bumper build and its the perfect length for a "y-pipe" for stacks at 5 foot.

If it has the banks power pack, i would think it should have a 4" exhaust on there...

I can't really tell, but judging by the picture, it looks like it still has the factory pipe on it.

I applied for the loan today and should know by tomorrow morning whether I can get it or not. I'm hoping they give me an ok and then I'll call the guy and see what all it has.
