  1. I bought a 2007 6.7L cummins Dodge. Pretty basic truck 6-spd manual . I'll make a thread once i get it cleaned up nice. More importantly, ANOTHER price drop now to $16,500.
  2. I had a a Lucky Luke game for the original playstation. It was like 8 dollars new in a bin at best buy. I never knew it was a cartoon but it sure was atrocious.
  3. I'm pretty sure you're wrong about that with these new hemi trucks, my buddy has a 2011 crew cab hemi that surprises me. 6 spd auto helps too right?
  4. If I had not just bought a diesel dodge this would be in my garage. It reminds of my old 97 with a 318. YOUR TIMING IS TERRIBLE!
  5. Another bump. I'd really like to get out from under this. Truly is a great truck, I just upgraded to a full-size. Make offers.
  6. Welcome, and nice Honda, srsly . My buddy Tony is a crash test engineer at Honda Marysville, talk about a badass job.
  7. Steak, or Stake? I would have no issue with being burnt in close proximity to a steak.
  8. I'm amazed at the pile of melted bumper plastic/aluminum. Not a single bit of radiator remains.
  9. Now up on AutoTrader: http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicledetails.xhtml?searchRadius=0&listingId=324382762
  10. These are the people we live amongst, be afraid. http://columbus.craigslist.org/pts/3064527114.html Just read it aloud, as written, for great justice. Call Dave just for funsies.
  11. Only selling outright at this time, since I've already bought another vehicle - forcing the sale of the ranger.
  12. I have one for sale that's obviously too new for you. That said, the trucks have been mechanically identical suspension wise since 1998. The 2wd trucks have coil spring front, whereas 4wd and Sport/Edge model 2wd trucks have torsion bar front suspension. The 4.0L V6 has been around forever, and they first started using the Duratec 2.3 4-cylinder (DOHC - truck-specific version of the 2.3 w/o variable timing + forged crank) in 2001. The 3.0 "vulcan" V6 was offered in the middle there somewhere, and it's a decent motor, but doesn't make much power and is basically a car engine they decided to put in the ranger. If I you're not going to tow/haul more than 1000-2000 lbs, I'd look for a 4-cylinder truck 2001+. If you're planning on doing much heavier work, I'd look for a V6 truck, specifically the 4.0L. The 3.0 V6 has basically no more power than the 01+ 4 cylinders, but just gets worse mileage. Also, if there is something you like/dislike more from year to year on the trucks, they haven't really changed the body/interior very often. Parts interchange from year to year like legos.
  13. Bump again! I'm thinkin it may have to go on autotrader this weekend.
  14. Edited original post to reflect price drop, also now throwing in a VERY nice tonneau cover that's only a few months old.
  15. Really surprised at how little interest I've had in this... Nobody on craigslist either
  16. Bump again. For anyone interested I can be available tonight, Saturday after 6, and about any time Sunday to show/test drive the truck.
  17. I recycle 10 gallons at a time pretty regularly, either at autozone, advance, or tractor supply. It is not uncommon for one to have their tank full and force me to go elsewhere. I'm sure they're paying someone to empty the tanks, so maybe you could offer to pump their tanks into your own barrels or something for free? There are probably some regulations that could get in the way though....
  18. I believe Columbus, but whoever Dick Masheter Ford is contracted with... And if you're asking because of the grey spots in the one picture, those were my dog's muddy footprints
  19. All my input will be related to baitfishing, generally on bottom or floated up slightly off the bottom. 1. How long have you river fished? 10-15 years 2. Who taught you? Have you taught anyone? Kids, friends, etc, for example. Grandpa, Dad, Friends. I have taught a lot of people, specifically with respect to carp fishing, which is unique. 3. Any differences from fishing a lake, for example? Yes, often you must use a heavier sinker, depending on current. Sometimes you must cast out a good distance to find the depth you're looking for (generally riverbeds have channels, and often the best fishing is just up from the edge of a channel/shelf). Fish generally head downstream once they're hooked, so try not to fish upstream of snags or other potential debris. Also insure that you're far enough upstream of any fishing partner, so you don't end up tangling with eachother once a fish is on. 4. Types of fish you fish for in the river? Carp, Catfish, Buffalo 5. Types of lures, etc most often used for fishing the river. Often live minnows/shad, cut bait, flavored baits fished with a hair rig (specifically for carp) 6. Particular skills/tips you've learned? A lot from 3 above probably applies, but also when bottom fishing or any fishing where chumming is involved, river fishing requires greater amounts and more frequency as current spreads your bait downstream. 7. What it means to you? Income, hobby, food, etc. Hobby only
