I'm not having problems with the link? But here is another link for it, hopefully it works. http://cars.yakaz.com/f350-cummins-for-sale#lo=4&docid=000908obms9nvn84 I found the CL ad for it as well. http://bloomington.craigslist.org/cto/4221562153.html

Not mine, no affiliation whatsoever. Wish i had the coin for it though, it would be in my driveway this weekend if i had the money. Hope someone here picks it up...

In the spring/early summer it will be for sale here on the portal first, as i know many people are interested in it and would use it for its intended purpose.

BloodyWest!! Thats perfect and awesome for the photos!!! Thank you very much!!! They just solidify that i will be perfectly fine with a Dodge =D

I love your truck... Gonna have to get me a Cummins :wings:

I'm so happy i decided to ask the question lol. There is a metric **** ton of knowledge in this thread, and it has certainly helped me out and i appreciate all the information/knowledge that has been shared. Hearing about the 24v lift pump, and VP44... yeah i have to agree, if the right one...

Thanks Red! I'll keep that in mind, I would prefer to pick one up here out west, much less rust to worry about.

Red - That's exactly what I'm thinking... My daughter is 1.5, and unfortunately we don't have her very often. So it makes sense to get what I want now. And way down the road, I'll have much more/better options for a family rig.

Bugdet is moderate, I guess that's how I could explain it? I don't want payments... So that puts my spending cap around 10k... But don't want to buy cheap and have to basically rebuild a truck. I am glad I'm not in a crunch and needing it now... I am not interested in a 99+ Super Duty as I...

Thank you all for your thoughts/inputs. Ideally i want a 12v dually, im sure not many flat billed hat guys want a dually as its not as "cool" as a SRW truck to lift and make it all fancy... I'm 31 and want/need practicality over flashy. Right now an extended cab Dodge would be great for us...

Yeah, i was thinking a 12v would get around 13-14 and that would be double the mileage that im currently at, probably doubles the power that i have too lol. And i bet i could go another mile per gallon or two if i looked into a pop up model such as an Alaskan... Hmmm... Obviously i know its all...

Red - Thank you for your detailed reply, i truly appreciate it. Both the wife and i are Dodge (moreso a Cummins for me) fan. And honestly the only reason i am considering the Ford is for the larger cab. I had an 06 Super Duty back in my bachelor days and I loved the cab space, hell i loved the...

Looking into a turbo diesel and slide in for my next rig (possibly as soon as next summer). I have it narrowed down to a 98 12v Cummins or a 96-97 Power Stroke... Now, i know everyone has their own truck preference so i'll take all advice with a grain of salt lol. Right now, its me my fiance...

Papa, your rig looks awesome!!! I'm quite jealous of you and your build!! But, i am quite happy for you as well!!! :bike_rider: Enjoy!

Oh even if i do part with it... it wont be for at least 3 more years. Thats about when i would have the funds to do a 12v swap, but who knows what the future holds for my family?
