Is it a diesel or gas ? I dont recall seeing or hearing anything about a 4 banger diesel, might be worth a look
It's a 3.0 litre straight six...kind of a "mini-Cummins"....


Met an old guy up in the high Wyoming mountains a month ago who was driving one. Said he'd had it for about a year and absolutely loved it.

It’s probably still worth what it’s window-sticker said.

How much do you want for it???? 😜😜😜😜

I just stopped and looked at a White, 2001 extended cab Ram with a Cummins because it had "ARIZONA CAR" in big letters on windshield.

It had 188K on it, and the bed had a cut out for a goose neck.

I was not interested cause it was an auto-magic.....



He was asking $28,000...............That was 2 weeks ago and it's gone now. I have no idea what he actually got for it.

We use salt up here in MI, so those AZ cars get a bit of a premium.........

Just Sayin...... ;)

^This.

Around here where vehicles don't rust, a pre-emissions Dodge/Cummins or Ford 7.3 Powerstroke will essentially sell for what it sold for as new, even with around 200,000 miles on it. Hard to imagine driving a truck for 20 years with no depreciation!

You'd be lucky to get $5,000 for a gas-powered truck of the same year.
Very similar in my parts. Between that and up coming youngins willing and able to pay whatever it takes to get one.

And it happens just like @D2Cat was saying.

Our area is LOADED with trust fund babies, they'll get you out from under your sweet ride before you even know what happens.
