    2nd Gen Dodge

    Id love to have a 12V Cummins. Ive wanted one for so long, but realistically for a decent one I would be spending around $10,000 more then a gasser, and repairs are more expensive etc..

    Fuel Mileage..

    My first choice was actually a 94-97 12 valve cummins single cab 4x4, but realized that a decent one is about $8,000 with around 300,000+ kms. I have also looked at the first gen ones and they dont have enough cab space for a guy my size (6'5) My buddy just bought one and I took it for a spin...
