find an 04-07.5 cummins, get a smarty, yank out the trans and get one built with at least a billet single convertor, flew plate and a billet input shaft. that's how I set up the trans in mine. cost me $3600 for the trans. the stock trans blew up at 22k miles, of course I wasn't good to it.

Why not just call it a programmer or a tuner?

Smarty is a manufacturer/name of the one and only tuner you should ever use on a cummins. Unless you are a racer and can justify the cost vs the need for power, then get EFI Live.

Hey, give Dodge a break! They last for a good 10,000 miles now, maybe . . . haha.

Do you still have all of those rigs you've got in your sig? Do you drive them all every now and then? Always been curious!

Yes, the current fleet is as stated. Some run, some don't, a few are insured to run around in on the road. Mostly been driving the wheels off my K5 since the end of last year.

Sweet, I love it! I remember seeing you say that you drove the Blazer a lot. Glad somebody's still got their collection going! Hope I'll have a collection at some point down the road

I think the 02 is one of his toys and the 08 is his tow rig.

What purpose does having 13 vehicles serve other than being bad A and just having them to have them? Lol he probably just buys a new one every once in while when he needs it, and just keeps whatever he was using before

Mint condition low mileage 7.3L original owner. I did run it a few years ago now. I think that was when the 6.4L was getting the injectors replaced under a recall.



I'ma hoarder of trucks, trailers, tools, parts, guns and ammo. I see things from that list I want, and I snag 'em up. I carefully mothball and exercise my stored trucks. My friends know my favorite line of getting another beater or runaround truck to save a nicer truck to, "Keep the miles off 'er."

Pretty much. Haven't bought a new truck in over a year or 2 now though. Been stockin' up my mega hoard of ammo.
