I just bought an '04 Ram with 79k miles on the truck. Extended cab and 8ft bed. I have never owned a diesel before, really needed a truck so this is what I got. It is in great shape!!!
So my question is, with a couple $$grand$$ to spare (I got a good deal) what are the first, basic mods everyone does? EFILive is gonna happen, but is there anything you would do before that?
It will be a fairly regular driver (I have another vehicle to get to work in too), used to maintain my hunting camp 1 hour away (good gas milage is important.......mostly x-way driving), pulling a trailer with a 38hp Kubota tractor and or a 4-wheeler sometimes.
I really like the HP some of you guys are getting and still able to drive on the street :ft:.......impressive!! Like I said, this is my first diesel. My only other "engine" experience is on my Harley, Hemi and 440. Whole new world for me.
:thankyou2:
