I am not bashing GM here, just reporting what I have seen. I have been going to northern New Mexico every summer for the past 5 years. Every year I see the same thing. Duramax trucks towing 5th wheels on the side of the road with the hood open boiling the coolant out, usually at the top of a grade. I do not see this with the Cummins or PSD's.

The Dodge has the Cummins, and anyone who has one will tell you that you pretty much buy the motor and it just comes wrapped in a dodge.





what he said. The cummins is a great motor, inline six is very strong.

Here is my tow rig being towed! Ha, ha, just to be fair, I apparently ran it too low on fuel and it sucked an air bubble when I rounded a turn. What, no baffles in these fuel tanks?

Very cool vintage pics! I especially like the two showing the month/year of the photo.

Thank you. The third one would be some time in 1968, and the last one from 1969 or later.

I still have the black '65 GTO, btw.

Last year I brought my trailer back from Michigan - it was a long noisy trip and fortunately no real issues other than a drug sniffing dog in East St. Louis after I was stopped for no tag in Illinois (no tags require by Oklahoma law for trailers). The dog didn't find anything of course, but the one relatively young officer thought the heavy 8 or 10 ply tires were suspicious.

The '72 getting a log splitter and stuff off friend's family place that was sold in June. I mostly tow a 5 x 10 utility trailer. The original owner used it to tow a 5th wheel travel trailer and the platter mount is still there. The hitch out back is seriously braced up with a 2 1/2" receiver. I added the other "itched" pictures I have handy

When I get finished with this 64 SS Impala I'm going to try and get started on the 67 Ramp Rat truck! It needs tires and the battery for the 12,000lb winch and some kind of tie downs for it.
I got to move the tag also because the hitch is behind it.
:chevy:
