I bought this truck 4 or 5 years ago, after the purchase of a brand new 2003 ford powerstroke and hearing the horror stories of engine failures of the then new 6.0 . I had no troubles out of my 6.0 but I knew that they were just around the corner ,so I opted to get out of it , thus the purchase of the proven cummins 5.9l and this Dodge . I bought this truck from a fellow ebayer in Las Vegas with great feedback  and after looking relentlessly locally for this type of truck  that had not been completely destroyed by modifications , use and just utter neglect. Once shipped to my location in Tennessee , I had painted at local Maaco due to clear coat chipping from the hot sun of Vegas .  The interior including dash and seats are in near condition with hardly any wear of seats and no cracks at all of dash. Truck has original wheel covers along with brand new Firestone Transforce 10 ply tires , after a front passenger wheel blow-out  on the interstate at 70mph ! The blown tire did hit the front bumper lower valance  , requiring it to be replaced with aftermarket .    About a year after I bought the truck the check engine light came on however it ran fine but I am quite meticulous and discovered the injection pump was faulty . I ordered and replaced original pump with one from Thoroughbred Diesel  along with lift pump. I also replaced the camshaft sensor and crankshaft sensor since they are located behind the pump so as to avoid any future problems in this area. There are no check engine light problems exhibited at this time. This truck uses no oil and runs perfectly !! I can honestly say , there are no known problems with this truck and it could be driven anywhere . I also replaced fuel level sensor in tank to eliminate erroneous readings ..... Every now and then it will briefly display lower fuel levels than known fuel level , this maybe attributed to the trucks lack of being driven . I may have put less than 4000 miles on the truck since I bought ....it's just too nice to use as a truck for work !! I did install a hide a way gooseneck hitch in the bed with retractable 2" ball along with 7 blade electronic brake control neither of which   have been used... Again just too nice of a truck to use on my farm.  Please Do Not bid at all if you have negative or no feedback as I promise your bid Will most assuredly be canceled and future bids blocked unless I am contact BEFORE  you bid . I'm very tired of bidders who do not follow through with their commitment... It costs me time and money ! I require $500 deposit within 3 days of auction close, pickup within two weeks  with full payment by cash or cashiers check with contact info from your bank before this truck leaves my location. Thank you for your consideration On Apr-22-15 at 19:19:02 PDT, seller added the following information: Sorry folks , this is the 24 valve turbo charged engine . I've had several emails about that since I failed to include in ad. If you look closely at a blown up profile picture , you can see the badge on the door .
