dodge cummins

[quads14589]

Found a dodge cummins its a 00 with 132k on it for 9500 dollars, looks to be in mint shape with a sound system in it no rust whatsoever, do you think 9500 is too much for it becasue i know that the dodges in that year have terrible trannys

[250x_kyle]

gotta have more info. just knowing that its a n 00 cummins doesnt help much

[400exrider707]

Its a good deal if its clean. Stock autos in those trucks suck, they just dont hold any amount of power. If its stock and the tranny is stock, its probably OK, but they just dont hold up to a lot of power, which is why most cummins owners opt for the stick shift.

ii have a 94 with an auto in it its got a lock up hd converter with a mild shift kit and it gets the job done but the motor is mostly stock just a few odds and ends the truck you are lookin sounds nice to me if its stock.

[BlaineKaiser450]

sounds good to me

[ben300]

an 00 wiht 132k for htat much is a steal..., my budy bought a 00 wiht a 150k and it was mint for 11500, so i say its pretty good....that engine alone will run forever, plus you can pick up a five speed trans for a decent price...

yea well this truck must be chipped becasue in the cab he has two gauges one for the turbo and i cant read the other one, but this truck is at a dealership. ill post up some pics

TWINKIES!! :devil:



Where have you been!??! lol I haven't seen you since the Banana boy thread.. :D :devil:

Good deal but I think you could find better. The standard cab drops the price of trucks by ALOT. I bought a 99 2500 4x4 with 195k extended cab fully loaded for about $9500.

132k isnt much though. Im pushin 300k with nothin wrong. I should get half million no problem.

[hypersnyper6947]

Thats a good looking truck, offer them 8500 see what happens

[400exrider707]

a 60lb boost gauge would scare me, unless the guy just didn't know what he was doing.... why on earth he would need a 60lb boost gauge is beyond me unless it was heavily modified or he just got the gauge cheap or something!?

The other gauge is fuel pressure... not sure why he'd need that either, but its just a gauge, doesn't really mean anything.

Usually a truck that has had some sort of a tuner on it you would want boost, pyro, and tranny temps. Usually you'd see a pyro instead of a fuel pressure gauge, but who knows.

I'd ask why it has a 60lb boost gauge on it though.

Is it modded at all?

Cummins are easy to get big HP numbers out of, but it seems the next weak point is the tranny....

[scuzz]

I would guess the fuel pressure gauge was so he could make sure he wasn't having low pressure and running lean.

Idunno...

ya im gonna call him tommorow and mabe head down there to go check it out

[byrdman37876]

name says it all. dodge it. unless u can make more selling it for scrap.

[quads14589]

lol

[bens250ex]

probably had the 60lb because they are the most common/ cheapest you come across.

[rider250ex]

The fuel guage is so he knows if the lift pump is on its way out. A new lift pump costs about $200 stock $500-$600 for a good aftermarekt. They always go on these trucks. IF the lift pump dies your vp44 (injection pump) wont have any pressure and will wear out causing failure. between $1200-$2500 depending on which one you buy. Always Always put a fuel pressure guage on a vp44 cummins.

probably because the most common are 30 and 60...and most diesel trucks will tap out a 30 with not to many mods, so why even put it in?

I had to replace my 30 psi gauge with a 60 on my 95' psd because it was pushing 35 with only injectors, turbo, chip, intake, exhaust and supporting mods, a cummins will do it a whole lot easier than a 7.3 too.

[hypersnyper6947]

I boost about 29psi stock, not consistently but it will spike to 29psi. This is in my 6.0 powerstroke

thats a ridiculose PRICE! we had same year and the transmission went out in the parking lot[ they fixed it for frree dad wrecked it a year later tore his shoulder up b/c airbags didnt deploy] no joke dude kelly blue book says $5,870.00

thats just my input

[rider250ex]

The price seems decent to me. I paid around 12k for my extended cab with 130k on it. That seems to be the going rate for them around here though. If its a clean truck i would go for it

[cmb19]

Did you end up getting the truck?

$12,000.00?

[rider250ex]

Back in april that was the going rate. Now you can find them way cheaper, but 9k for a 4x4 with no dodge rot is a good deal

[quads14589]

No guy sold it
