Up for sale is the most dependable diesel truck on the road, the venerable 12 valve Cummins Dodge Ram! For those not familiar with these trucks, a little bit of research will give you a clue as to why the 94-early 98 Dodge Ram Diesel Trucks bring such a premium. These are the motors EXPECTED to run over 800k miles with routine maintenance. These are the trucks that get 22-25mpg hwy STOCK and better with modifications. These are the trucks with the mechanical fuel pump...an issue that many 98.5-02 Cummins owners have spend thousands on fixing. With that being said, if you're looking at this truck, you probably already know all this and more. This truck has been adult owned and responsibly enhanced for better fuel economy and reliability. These improvements were removal of the restrictive muffler and installation of boost,EGT and trans temp gauges to monitor important parameters. Tires have been upgraded to 33" all terrains(285/75/16) and fronts have 65% tread life, rears have about 45-50%. Newer flip up towing mirrors have been added as well for better visibility and appearance. The engine runs extremely strong, transmission shifts excellent and four wheel drive operates properly. Front suspension doesn't "wander" or have unnecessary play. Cosmetically, the truck is in better shape than pretty much any 97 Dodge Ram with over 100k miles,though it is not a show truck by any means. It has its share of rock chips but both doors have been replaced to remedy the ever present rust that forms on them over time. There is a small patch of paint bubbling on the base of the left front fender. Aside from that, no other rust issues.....this is a very solid truck. Interior is in above average shape for the year of truck, with the only tear being on the drivers seat bolster and has been sewn up to keep it from spreading. This truck appears to never have been smoked in and is only a TWO OWNER truck. No accidents at all on its Autocheck Report. THIS TRUCK HAS NEVER HAD A GOOSENECK OR 5th WHEEL INSTALLED! Yes, you read right. This truck has had an easy life and is ready for a lifetime of trouble free service. I take great pride in fully disclosing the condition of my vehicles.
