New Dodge

[mcjaredsandwich]

Ive got a 97 1500 v8 magnum. 190k miles. Eats oil and gas but runs like a champ. Dodge makes some good stuff, I plan on my next trucking being a diesel dodge, gonna go with a cummings.

There may be a fix to the oil burning...but not the gas consumption. Search for a Plenum kit. I bought mine from Hughes engines and it worked. I have a 98 1500 5.9 and it used to burn oil through a leak bw the plenum plate and intake. If you're somewhat mechanically inclined you can prolly fix it for less than $200.
