OT- About a dodge.

hey guys, as some of you know we own a marina. And we had a guy come in to the shop today to pick up a boat and haul it to florida. He has a 2001 Dodge cummins...with a MILLION miles on it. The guy actually have a Beefed up roof rack system and put boats on trailers on the roof! AND pulls a boat on a trailer as well! It was actually shown on the Powerblock tv series Truck U. I have some cell photos along with the youtube video.

I've got no beef with a Cummins or the way Dodges look. Hell, if the truck would hold up around the engine I may even have one...

I think the major knock is on the transmissions. The motor is just fine.

Yeah, Cummins are amazing engines. If only Ford had bought into them first...

But that's fixable

Cool to see any diesel pickup with that many miles.

All valid points about dodges, but y'all are forgetting the biggest. All the D bags that drive them!
