What happened to the TRUCK?

[K5Cruz]

This is why there is an options sheet on your window sticker. Just about any combination of truck you want you can have. I've got a big horn with a manual transfer case and tranny. The only thing that is automatic on the truck I would change is the front end, I'd like to have manual hubs. Not because I like getting out in the rain to lock in the hubs, but because I dont like the front end turning all the time.

And in all honesty, I'm sure I'm not the only one who bought a Dodge for the Cummins alone. I like the look of the truck, sure, but its junk. I can not think of one Chrysler product over a year or two old that I've been in and thought to myself "Wow, this is a nice vehicle." They squeak, rattle, and pretty much fall apart around the drivetrain. I'm pretty sure they painted my truck with a magic marker and cleared it, because if you look at it wrong it chips or scratches. Within three days of ownership two of my front speakers went out. I just had my entire front end replaced at 50k. My AC compresser went out at 45k. It rattles inside, my steering wheel covering is worn out, my seat is breaking down, my axles have lost most of their paint, and all of my radio buttons are losing their color, just to name a few. The truck still runs great, however

I can pass on the power seats, leather, and stuff like that, but I do like having a cloth seat, CD player, and power windows.

With another winter approaching, what I really want is a grid heater hooked into the vents like the TDIs have.

You had issues with your axles???? Dang it! this one of the reasons I bought this truck, is because I thought it had super lardge indestructible axles. Or when you say front end are you talking about the steering?

Sounds like the boyz in Saltillo drank too much Cerveza before they built your truck.

I would assume that the reason these trucks aren't on the lots are b/c there are only an extreme few amount of people that want a basic truck. Any dealer ship can special order you what you want in a truck. You have to talk to the sales manager. PW and PDL are nice to have in a full size truck especially in a 4 door. But I'd agree I lime the rubber mat b/c I hunt alot and my floor mats get dirty real quick. I couldn't imagine hand cranks in my truck especially in the fall when the weather is nice and I have to roll them back up when I park somewhere so nobody steals my shiz.

I agreed 110%! Instead of adding all those extra features that most of us won't use they need to spend a little more time engineering better equipment around the cummins.
