Need Opinions- 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 CTD

I have a 2002 cummins auto 4x4 extended cab short bed. 285 tires are nice on them trucks would not go any higher or any lower. Buy a fass fuel pump and you will be fine, plan to do hauling get a 3 gauge a pillar trim fuel trans piro gauges. if it is lifted the trucks will bounce around. my truck has 117k all stock from a dealer in 2012 paid 17,000 if u can get the truck between 14-17,000 I do not see how u could go wrong. most people do not under stand these 2nd gens blue book value and ( want ) status are rising each year and are worth more than earlier 3rd gen common rails. replace the track bar upper lower ball joints fass fuel system gauges u can por 15 the bottom of the doors to attempt to stop the rust. im in nj so just like u if u do not stop the rust now it will get worse fast. I have seen a few trucks 2 tone them and paint the bottoms with rhino liner. if its stock take the k&n filter off since they clog the turbos up. I run a air filter off a catapillar and I have a small edge ez tuner on the truck, retimes it and adds a little more fuel.
