85 dodge ram charger repairs and snow drive! 

That sounds like great rig!

@Donovan Samuel nobody gives a damn

A Cummins would be a great swap idea!

@18Dreaming let's goo Well, speaking as a cummins swap enthusiast, they are awesome. My current project is a 90 ramcharger with a p pump 12 valve and getrag 5 speed. You can make stupid amounts of horsepower and still have a very street and trail friendly vehicle. The 12 valves are also extremely simple to work on and widely available, though they are getting a bit uncommon these days. The aftermarket support is absolutely unparalleled, they get good fuel mileage compared to gasoline counterparts, and with minor maintenance are very durable. There are downsides, of course, the biggest being price of parts. If you want to build raw horsepower, just build your preferred flavor of big 3 big blocks. You will get more power cheaper that way. Exceedingly cold weather can of course be problematic for any diesel, but there are numerous ways to alleviate that. Honestly though, I just like them. My father has been an owner operator truck driver as long as I've been alive, most of those rigs had cummins in them and my upbringing revolved around them. I guess I'm biased, but there is a lot to like about them.

@18Dreaming let's goo Ah, that. Well, I think you hit the nail on the head, its status. Don't get me wrong, I'm not that old and a few years ago I was racing around in a jacked up truck spewing smoke like all the other kids. The only difference is mine was a 1986 f350 I, of course, put a cummins in and built myself as opposed to the kids that will forever be indebted to the bank because they took out 40k loans to be cool. Either way, those were the people who got into the work force ten years ago. I think the diesel craze is dying off due to so many of us getting married and selling off the toys. Its still there, but I see a lot of comparisons between it and the chopper fad back when Orange County Choppers was dying off. Give it a few more years and the only people with diesel trucks will be people who actually use them or genuinely enjoy them because they are cool.

I have a cummins swapped 87 ramcharger 4x4 5 speed

11 eh that’s a good lifespan!!

Dallas dad was 170lbs I see lots of dog food in my future 😆

Thanks for watching got some videos coming!!

Oh wow that’s a substantial increase in mpg! Definitely got a few mods to do on this ol ram!

Cutting off the 3 catalytic converters and running duals with H pipe, turbos, and 4" chrome tips helped too. Your EGR block off is another plus

Not much room at the back eh lol!!
