Interesting ebay Truck For Someone Looking For A Cummins

I may be in the minority, but I actually like that old Dodge bodystyle as long as it's a regular cab-short bed configuration. The extended cabs do look a little awkward. That body started in 1972 and remained largely unchanged until the "big rig" look debuted in 1994.

Their truck got caught up in the middle of the Chrysler bankruptcy of the late-70's, and then the whole K-car and minivan craze that actually saved the company. However, a byproduct of this was that their fullsize truck went without a redesign for a couple of decades.

But for a workhorse with a Cummins, I'm not sure I would care all that much about what the truck looked like -- just what it could do!
