think of it this way....not much goes wrong on diesels lol keep the oil changed and fuel in the tank and fuel filter changed every few oil changes, and you shouldn't have much problems

I am too there boss. There used to be a guy in Oly with his own shop. I will call my old neighbor up and see if his shop is still around. I haven't been around for a while so things have changed quite a bit for me. But let me call him up and I will hit you back.

Hi .
I am new to owning a Dodge ram CTD. It appears there is a lot you can do with these machines. I am more into having a good running rig and plan on keeping it until my wheels fall off....
Ram 2500 5.9L cummins 48k big horn automatic..
Any advice on how to use the automatic tranny would be appreciated. This is my first automatic.

Austin,

You are a bit of a drive for me, is there anybody who you would recommend around the sound. I am trying to avoid the Seattle traffic.

BTW, as President are there any meets or get togethers?
