A guy around the corner from me has a 2001 2500 4x4 Dodge with a 6 speed and 3.54 gears it's a Laramie but with a rubber floor mat. It's got the NorthEast cancer starting but is in really good shape overall. He put a price of $16500 on it but says it's just a place to start, it has 121,000 miles on it. Just incase anyone was interested.

folks in western MA have a pile of nice state forests to ride in.. out here all we have is wrentham which is nice if you like a lot of granite in your diet.
Theres a really nice spot Ive been riding but the EPO's are enforcing it this spring so thats closed to us now too =(

whats your budget if you dont mind me asking?

Diesel-less
02-11-2007, 10:09 PM
Well, ive really got to get rid of my 1500 ram first. but my budget should be around ten grand. id like 2500 reg cab, 5 speed...thats what i really want, but im pretty much interested in just about anything haha...my only stipulation is that the truck NEEDS TO BE 4x4!

Id really like a Ram, but would take a ford...no chevrolets please LOL

Diesel-less I talked to the owner of this truck today, he is on this site as Mal91152. Sounds like a nice truck, esp for the $$ all highway miles, plus he is a BIG time cummins nut so you know it was cared for..:smokin:

Not a bad truck for the money and a great first start. I hate to part with the 12 valve but I have too many trucks and the wife says clean up and put the money to the daughter's college payments ($40K / year). I priced reasonable so someone else can enjoy. email and i will send photos.

Do you have a boat? Where do you fish??

Torque This, I just got a 20' Aquasport classic with a 140 Johnson. Haven't tried to run it yet. I would love to do the striper thing, last one Igot was last Sept while visiting my daughter in college at Neport. Got lucky and caught on a plug from shore

If you need to do some work to it, tune-up, etc, bring it down to the shop in Derby, we can back it in and check it out. (when it warms up a bit) :idea:

The Housey is LOADED with fish!
