    Man third Gen owners are definitely a type. Got the stanced wheels, tow mirrors ALWAYS out, light bars, black everything. Be interested to see what you do with it. Damn seems crazy cheap to me ! Especially if it doesn't leak or seem to have issues. The interior even looks nice. I thought it was going to have a shit load of issues with all those hot boy upgrades. Usually when they look like that it is all appearance and zero maintenance.

Been in the south its whole life. I'm in Tennessee. Bought mine in 2016 for $9900....FROM A DEALER! and buy a flow pro muffler, it looks like a corkscrew inside the muffler..It flows good, sounds great and doesnt drone!

    Great buy damn good truck and motor I have had two 12 valve Dodge duallys and love them ! I strongly suggest looking into a FASS fuel system the 24 valves are a high pressure fuel system who's injection pump is cooled by the fuel and is very particular [as in the will take a crap if trash or pressure loss is encountered] the automatics are another weak link [both of my past trucks were automatics and I had no issues] good luck with that excellent purchase looking forward to your next video !!

  • @violent93
    @violent93 3 місяці тому +2

    You have the best auto trans produced with cummins pick ups, the 48re, stronger than the older autos, electronically more simple than the new autos. I recommend a Shift Kit if you plan to do anything with the transmission 👍.
    And yes, straight through resonators reduce a LOT of noise.
    2003-2004 has different injectors than the 2004.5-2007, among many changes in 2004.5.
    If you plan to own the truck for a long time i definitely recommend an upgraded fuel system like FASS or AIRDOG.

    Nice find. I have a 2007 3500 Dually which was the last production year for the 5.9 pre-DEF power option. The best advice I would give you is test those injectors immediately, before you ask, yes it costs about $12K to find out the hard way, and that's if you do the work yourself. I've also dealt with two of the other common issues with 3rd gens, TIPM issues, and HVAC mode doors. Now I finally have everything operating as it should and it's a great truck. Considering what new ones go for, even with a new motor, I'm money ahead.

      Later year common rails were a better engine. But hoovie didn’t put those miles on himself, in a hotshot platform almost every diesel can do it because they’re all highway miles under a good load and insanely good maintenance typically. That’s why most buy Texas diesels, all highways, mostly towing.

    Killer deal! Lose the tail lights and maybe go back to stock wheels?
