Yesterday was a sad day and a good day all at the same time. It was one of those deals I could not say no too but I was already on the fence with it. Traded in for a 06 2500 Mega Cab Laramie 5.9 Cummins. Truck already has some goodies on it but got to play with it some more to figure out what all has been done. What I can tell right off is, 5"MBRP Exhaust, S&B CAI, 6" Lift riding on 295/65/20 Nitto Trail Grapplers and Pioneer stereo and speaker upgrade, haven't check to see what speakers are in there yet. I got way more for my truck than I thought I would get and got the 06 for way less than I ever thought I would with the cummins. Dealer is putting new brakes and replacing the passenger door mirror and should have it back tomorrow morning. Truck is strong, so thinking there may be a few other thing done in the engine compartment.

Congrats. That Cummins is going to push those big tires much better than the Hemi did.

Thanks all, Pretty stoked about the new truck but still sick to my guts on letting the 03 go, I've had it since 04. I was at the cross road of dumping a bunch of money on hemi or getting a cummins and the dealer really wanted to make a deal, was a right place at the right time thing. Got to say though, a little intimidated by the cummins, I have never owned or dealt with a diesel before so this should be fun. Heels, I not even sure where to get fuel from, the base I work on doesn't have diesel pumps, I checked tonight after work so got to figure this out quick.
