Q: im wondering about the cost of installing the second battery setup in my 99 ram. i know there are stock parts available. cummins powered dodges built since 1994 use 2 batteries politics the gentle art of getting votes from the poor and campaign funds from the rich. .

stephen harding harding@cs.umass.edu wrote in roy wrote well will one of you folks please explain to me why it is that these supposedly super traction fwd cars are on their roof as regularly as they are dont know that they really are. given that it seems a large percent of current car models and models of the past 20 years seem to be fwd i would expect a high probability of fwd cars in the ditch after a snow storm. id expect a high probability of fwd cars running red lights too but id be very surprised if that were due to fwd. there seems to be a switch to rwd under way right now. dont know if its just moving to something different or if dry road acceleration performance is now a dominant marketing factor. smh the number of cars in a ditch in inclement weather is directly proportional to the number of idiots on the road. ; joe black 03 dakota 5.9 r/t cc calypso green 93 mustang 5.0 lx hatch with a few goodies .

i know that the 3.9s dont get good mileage but it seems to be 13 ish all around and i dont rev hard on it etc. plugs are pretty new. i did put an oversized air cleaner in it. is that a problem what else should i check. guys with full sizes get more than i am per gallon. o2 egr o2s arent cheap though! .

that body style was used for many years. imo the style is probably very sound especially by the late 80s. just check for the usual rust spots... including on the frame. hi all i was recently looking through a truck trader when i saw a few late 80s to about 91 model 1/2 ton dodge trucksthe older style not the kenworth 94 look anyway; are these decent trucks some i saw had fuel injection as well; does the 4x4 work well any opinions would be appreciated thanks! tb .
