We originally bought this truck because we needed something that we could haul horses and hay with, go camping with, and also fit three kids under the age of five in. Not exactly an easy bill to fill out. We were pretty happy when we found a '99 Dodge Cummins 2500 Extended Cab manual with under 200,000 miles and a pristine interior and exterior. Not only is the engine a beast, but it hauls my steel four-horse stock trailer fully loaded with ease. It's almost 20 years old, and it's held up so beautifully and needed minimum mechanical care. The only real work we've had done on it was replacing the clutch and flywheel. I also thoroughly enjoy the spacious cab. There is enough room for two forward-facing and one rear-facing car seat in the back, myself and my husband, our two Australian Shepherds, and groceries. The leather interior has also held up really well over time too and looks great.

I have literally no complaints about this truck. From the quality of the build, to the solid feeling on the road, this truck gets the job done. I have the V10 engine which is unbelievably powerful. With a fully loaded trailer and bed it honestly does not feel like the truck is even pulling anything! It glides on the road. The Laramie package is really something special. The leather is of a high quality, and the woodgrain dash looks really elegant. When sitting in the truck, it hardly looks like a truck inside! It looks like a luxury car. I also have the auto dimming mirrors, compass, and ambient temperature gauges as well. These all work well, and I find them to be accurate and helpful. They are bright enough that even in the daytime, in full sunlight, I can still see them. The rear doors open and have handles which allow for passengers to comfortably be able to get in and out of the truck. The back seat lifts up for extra storage. The extended cab is roomy enough to allow passengers sitting in the back to not feel cramped. Everything about the truck is truly amazing, and it really feels solid whether you are joyriding around, driving to work, or carrying an entirely full load.
