yeah for sure, i bought my 2001 dodge cummins 3 years ago for $9000 with 290000 kms, but they seems to hold their value quite well

oh and the 94 is probably more reliable, the 24 valve trucks tend to have injection pump problems if you dont put a better lift pump on them like a fass or airdog

If you dont need the extended cab, id say keep the 94'. Everyone wants the 12 valve p pumped trucks because they have huge power potential and free mods you can do if its going to be your play truck. The 94 will also probably get better fuel mileage than the 02. I think the 94 is probably worth...

the turnoff is the first turnoff on your left after the ram falls campground area, like 3-4 kms i think, then down that road for 3-4 kms, there is a parking lot there with 2 different trails you can head off on, one goes to the ranger creek riding area and the other to the hummingbird area

i know that in diesel trucks its mostly used for lowering egts with a water/meth kit, they normally see 50hp increase with 50% water and 50% meth, but not sure what the benefits would be on a 2 stroke sled

about twenty mins west of nordegg is the sugar bowl, its a good spot if theres enough snow, and about 60 mins south on the trunk road is the stagging area for onion lake and ranger creek riding areas. Both of those are good if theres enough snow as well. The sugar bowl is kind of hard to get...

heres a few more pics from last year, if we get snow like last year, its a great place to ride

makes sense, thanks for the reply

Flatlander_01- the main thing im confused about is the gas compression field, if you had your hd mech ticket and got tired of working on trucks/off road equipment, could you get a job in gas compression?

yeah i did, it looks great, i wish my truck was a 12 valve, but i do like how adjustable my 24 valve is with the edge juice with attitude.

obviously i work on my own machines and am quite good at it, but theirs always more to learn, im sure you couldnt build a 800 hp diesel truck, or build a custom sled, and hopefully after i get a trade or more than one trade ill be able to do something like that

so you have your hd mech ticket, but work in the millwright field?

so polarblu, would you say that an hd tech would have better experience/training to work on their own trucks, sleds, dirtbikes etc? but a millwright gets training in a wider variety of stuff, welding, machining, engines, compressors, pumps etc?

thanks for the reply's, keep em coming

yeah thats a good idea, and you can get a second trade in 2 yrs after you have one correct?
