Had a 84 W350 Crew that I sold like an idiot. Building a 77 D100 Stepside currently
I see you are also on Ramcharger central. Lots of good Mopar info there. I miss my '90 RC.

What in the hell did you ever sell that w350 for? And I'm not a Dodge fan. But those, and the RamChargers that were like 70's and 80's Broncos, but with a metal roof. They sort of showed the way the big Blazer would eventually go, with non removable roof. Again. Not a Dodge fan but loved those
Oh, well. If you're gonna sell it, those are good reasons. I guess we just can't have nice things...good that it went to a fitting buyer.I built an engine for it that ended up having a piston out of spec and it hit the head so it was sitting a while and Hurricane Sandy dropped a tree which caused some roof damage (was only the outer skin) but with it sitting it was better for it to go to a new home.
The guy that bought it was from VA with a real nice Cummins truck. He swapped the entire drive train into the crew as he needed the extra room due to having kids.
It would also be nice if they shrank them back down to a normal size, but I don't have much hope for that happening. My buddy has a 2016 Sierra 2500 and it is simultaneously larger on the outside and smaller on the inside than my Power Wagon...Wish all the manufacturers would bring back step side models. Sure would fix the issue of barely being able to reach over the bed rails of modern trucks. Actually GM and Ford now have step cutouts on thier 2500/250's. Good and helpful
Yessir. The old ones are veritable Tardis compared to the new ones. Granted my cab is cavernous - I cant reach from driver's door to passenger door to grab something off the other floor or wedged between the seat and door. But yet, seemingly less elbow room on account of thick door cards, (happily) plush seating, and bolstered center console rests, convoluted dashboards (looking at last gen Tahoe) and such. I DO love my K2 Sierra, though. Nicest truck ove ever owned, so. I'm a bit of a dichotomyIt would also be nice if they shrank them back down to a normal size, but I don't have much hope for that happening.

Ok, first time I’ve seen that……excellent lol. Now that’s how you demonstrate the multi functions of your slide out. Best job in the world….mom/dad. Enjoy every dirty diaper changing moment as they go by as fast as the wind. Before you know it you’ll be picking out your new offroading adventure while they’re picking out a college. Goes by tooooo damn fast lol. Best of luck with your tiny adventure.On a recent trip to FL... What do you do when you're at the beach and there's nowhere to change a diaper? Use your drawer system of course!

Talk about some smooth sand, those look like pristine conditions! Very nice!Got to drive on a beach for the first time on a recent trip, was tickled pink.

It was a gorgeous day; nice strong wind coming off the ocean (that almost ripped my awning off 😅), and the sand was packed hard enough that I didn't even need to air down and probably could've handled some decent speed.Talk about some smooth sand, those look like pristine conditions! Very nice!
haha, he sure used us as a train to shuttle him to all the alpine lakes...and the dog, looking like a steam locomotive train conductor with his head out the window looking forward
