Truck is a 2004 ram 2500 4x4, hemi auto and 4:10 gears with a bajillion miles on it. Mechanically its in like new condition. Physically its beat to hell... there isnt a single inch on it that isnt dented or scratched. It was an old farmer's truck and he ran over every thing he owned with it. :
Back in Feb. i had an incident were i exited the shoulder of I-30 asleep with the cruise set on 75mph. In the rain. Ran through a fence, took out the front bumper- grill- hood and wrapped about a mile of hog wire underneath all 4 corners. I had a spare to my trailer laying in the bed and it jumped up through the back glass and came in the cab with me. The fence wire cut every brake line on the truck.
I got a new $50 ebay grill, and found a junkyard hood (with hail damage) and front bumper for $250. I repaired and painted the hood and front fenders with duplicolor Paintshop paint shot out of a standard HVLP gun. Eventually im going to do the bodywork on the truck and paint the whole thing so it will match.
