You ever race at Albany MX?
I've sponsored a few riders there...
The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

No, I've never ridden a MX track.  Both my KX250 and RM125 are down right now.  I should have my RM up within a month, and I haven't opened up the KX yet to see what I damaged at my last dune outing.

The RM ran excellent when I took it a part.  I'm doing the top end as preventive maintenance.  It will be my introduction to MX.  My KX is set up for woods.

that is way to much money for that truck. i have been watching craigslist for the past 2 yrs. [at least 3X a week] there are alot of cummins in the southern states for under 10k. the only reason i havent bought one yet is no money.i have been looking for 96-98 12 valve 5spds.i use search tempest craigslist, pretty close to what crazedlist used to be.

thoughts on those?

I havnt been able to find much else out there for that much less. (that isnt beat, or run out on miles)..

Problem is, I need somthing that can haul a 22Ft toy trailer in the future. as thats the direction Im going at the moment.

so that kind of killed the 5.3L 1500 trucks I was looking at.

Open to thoughts and oppinoins on other trucks.

quick ... someone smack me and tell me this is too much money to spend on a truck...

http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicledetails.xhtml?zip=91910&endYear=2006&modelCode1=GMCC25PU&showcaseOwnerId=1237078&startYear=2006&makeCode1=GMC&searchRadius=200&bodyStyleCodes=TRUCKS&mmt=%5BGMC%5BGMCC25PU%5B%5D%5D%5B%5D%5D&listingId=357565074&listingIndex=5&Log=0

But


its the 2006 LBZ duramax (the hotrod duramax)..

only 1 owner truck,  30,000 miles.

Camper shell. (means no 5th wheel hitch, so the truck hasnt been hauling the titanic around its entire life)
all the injection problems are fixed by this year..

exact body configureation I want (short bed, 2.5 door)

its 1 year before UGLY smog.   so no nasty smog stuff.  (easy things that bolt on and off every "smog check" year).. (Oh but that would be illegal...  :roll: )

6 speed allison.

360hp
650 ftlb torque
BEFORE you mod it  :evil:

and the problem now is.. Family.

If I didnt have 2 little ones that need a back seat.  Id just go buy a 72 chevy pickup with a 454...  and feed it. all it can drink.

but they never made "crew cab"  stuff like tha tback then.   only when you get into the smog crap of the 90's etc...
