Hummvee, not a Hummer, but a military Hummvee. Ive always wanted to fix one up and have the ultimate hunting/towing/people hauling vehicle.

 

If I couldnt have that, Ide probably buy a Jeep Wrangler, and convert it to a CC pickup. Or maybe Ide go old school and get an International Harvester.

 

Im not a ford fan. I have driven my share and they were OK, but Im a GM guy from birth. My dad and my grandpa both drove GM since the late 80s.

 

I felt so betrayed when my dad went and bought a 2011 Ram 2500. I wasnt that impressed with it either. My first truck was a 87 Ram 150, but they dont make them like that any more. My step-grandpa (who was a ford guy) used to say, "If I had a one-eyed dog named Dodge, Ide poke his other eye out."

i sure as hell do not want that. all of the kids who drive them around me are complete tools.

 

 

 

 

 

 

i really do not like chrysler products. just seem very low quality and ive seen to many bad things. so i would take any CCLB ford with a manual 7.3

Thats sweet!!

 

Honestly, the most durable truck I've owned has been a 95 Ram 5.9. My first purchased truck. I modded that truck to hell and put 260k hard miles on it.. It only ever needed a fuel pump.. I grew up with Ford buddies, every body style Ford has felt and drove like a grandpa truck, this new style looks no different. If I bought another truck today, it would be a Dodge for sure.. I'd love a cummins, but Diesel is so high and I have no need for the 2500.

Dodge Ram power wagon hands down....Last generation

Close second Ford Raptor.

 

Will be the next truck for me, the price of a close to new one is actually not bad.

I Would get a new 3500 cummins manual , all fords are cheap pieces of poo, they have no idea how to design a quality interior.

 

however my dad would choose a Nissan frontier with a manual trans, such a shame you cant get sticks in gm trucks :thumbs:

i really like the looks of the f250's. i looked hard at the tundra's before i bought my sierra, they have a shit load of power, but i just didnt like the way the looked or drove. i never drove an f250, so my decision for it is based on looks alone

I dont like the new Superduty pickups. The interior looks cheap, and the seats arent very comfortable. The seats have no lumbar support at all, and the side bolsters are almost non-existant. We have an F350 at work and other than what I mentioned, its an alright rig. I sure wish they would have bought me a Sierra 3500 though.

If I were buying a new 2011 and couldn't get a GM, then I think an Outdoorsman regular cab Ram 2500 with anti slip diff, 4.10s and some other stuff would be in the driveway. With the latest Ram offerings, I would put them over an F-250. Plus the superduty is just plain ugly!

I would have a new Ford F150 Eco Boost with the FX4 package. But IF I could have any truck, i'd have a Raptor in quad cab, with the 6.2!

    • Howdy folks,   Recently I pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain (part numbers coming soon - will have to disassemble), and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).   On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash for the heating element.     No problem… or so I thought.   I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires. I ran it to the positive of the heated steering wheel (Violet/White), and took black to ground.   Hooked up the battery, turned the truck on - no heated steering wheel. No button backlights. Was pleased to see that my cruise control was working though.   Read a post suggesting reversing polarity, so I gave it a shot. Violet and White to ground, Black to power.    Aha! Heat! But I seemingly can’t turn it off AND still no backlights on any of the buttons.    Checked all fuses, everything is still in good order. I’m stumped.   Does anyone have any insight? If so, please share!
    • I'm about 1800 miles into my last oil change, and yesterday a message appeared saying oil life was at 77%. Not sure why it popped up but I think all of these electronics could be susceptible to solar flares or somesuch. I change my oil right at 3K each time, and that was the first time in 10870 miles that message came up. Strange thing is that it showed on the screen at all since I don't drive with that sort of info displayed on the DIC.

    • Checked the pads today and there's plenty of meat on them. If the message keeps coming up, I'll just answer YES that the pads were replaced and wait for the squeal.
    • Welcome to the Forum! Always post the code definitions along with the codes. there are over 18000 possible codes, no one remembers them all and most will skip over your post rather than look them up
