thanks jamzwayne.
i always wanted one so when i saw it , i had to have it.
2004 with 24,000 miles, when i got it 100% stock and a 9 out of 10.
i put the 20" factory style rims, lowered 2" in the back. #4 pulley and a tune. i have all stock parts stored away.
I talked to alot of guys that had them and most said, do a pulley , tune and enjoy it, after that you start messing with the drivabilty and the fun factor. part of me want to do a built engine and whipple. but it would really kill the value of such a clean , low mile truck.

In the Ram 2500/3500 it's only available in the low trims and limits a whole lot of options while hurting your tow ratings. It further rub salt into the wound the auto doesn't cost any more money. I doubt they will last after the next refresh. For now it doesn't cost anything extra to build a manual truck but in a new design it will and the ROI isn't there.
For a personal truck the manual is more owner preference but a whole lot of the HD series trucks I see are owned by a company. Not a lot of fleet managers want to fool with changing out clutches because some moron was driving with his foot on the pedal.
