Its a black 03 4x4 6 speed with 51k miles on it..
a little pricy i think but ill talk them down or ill get a white one..
i found a couple others but this one if perfect just like my truck now with a lb7 and a stick..
Witch i like the lb7 better anyways i think its got more take off.

Sounds like your bouncin back and forth on GM...Dodge...GM...LB7...LLY...CUMMINS....If I were you I'd keep your '06, its newer, nicer, and you might actually miss the allison.

But its all up to you, just somethin to think about

Well not really. I never thought about the dodge until my dad brought it up.
My dad is going to be ordering a new truck in late 06 for the new front end's.
So he wants my truck to trade in because it'll have better trade in and i really want a stick.. Im not sure about this truck but im getting the info on it tomorrow and im going to look into it and see about it.. I love my truck but i dont want a auto i really want a stick.. I hate towing with a auto.. and i mostly tow so i have alot hate im my life..lol... But i don't know we'll see.

NO NO NO..
Ok at the end of this year the new front ends are coming out and they'll look like the tahoes and suburbans.. my dad wants that..
so he is wanting my truck so i dont mess it up to trade in on a new 07..
and he is going to pay off half of w.e i get..

with only be on the half tons to begin with....don't expect a new 3/7 or 1 ton for a while. and from the pics i've seen you'll be shocked about how much it will look like a, dare i say "ford sd"
