You wanna know why I didn't order my gears and Detriot from you? Simple. Cause I can't frickin stand you. Stay the hell out of my posts you moron. You have nothing to say that I want to hear. I don't care about your opinions. You don't come into someones post who's proud of something, or bragging about something, and say that it sucks, or you have a better one or you coulda got it cheaper...etc It's rude. I cannot believe you havent mouthed off to the wrong person and gotten your ass beat for it. You agree? Piss off. Who cares if timmy agrees? You have no tact what so ever. Always opening your pie hole and spewing forth a constant stream of sh!t. I would think that Canmore would agree with me...and countless others. Good thing you live 2000 miles away from me. Stay there. :mad:

You missed the entire point. :surepal:

Let me re-phrase for you in a single sentence.

I looked at a newer truck that was cheaper and had much fewer miles, but I didn't buy it because they would not loan me any money on it.

The rest of it, I'm not going to comment on, except for the fact that I take nothing personally with regards to my business, and it's your money, and I hope you're happy.

As to the personal attacks, take them to PM, as I really don't understand what you're all pissed about, but I'd be willing to bet it could all be clarified off the forum.

Oh and if you can't take the heat, it's probably time to step out of the kitchen.

Oh yeah, and the next time you know everything, do yourself a favor and don't post up asking for opinions, and then whine like a little schoolgirl when people don't think your way. The entire idea of having a forum is to get other's opinions. Fine if you don't like mine (looks like others agree anyway so it's not really my opinion) but you've obviously done the wrong thing if you posted in the open forum and didn't expect to get both good and bad opinions.

Either way, you can't go wrong, it's a Cummins. :grin:
 
PM sent.

I have no problem with recieving good and bad opinons. Notice rgfguitar's post. He made the same point you did....but didn't come off as an ass. Everytime I fire you up in a post like this, do you know that I always get atleast 2 or 3 pms from different members telling me that it's great that someone calls you on your dickery and that they agree with me? Everytime.

This guys ego is unreal.....

I totally agree. I notice that the other vendors on the site do not act the way Tim does. I bought parts from him once and will not again because of things he posted in my posts, same reasons you noted above. People buy from him because he sells so cheap, but he is an a$$hat otherwise. Tim,

I just did a search through every post you have started since you have been here.

I only found one response by me in all of them, and it was in regards to Pitbull tires, and you sure see that guy around a lot lately, pimping his product that isn't even on the market. ;)

If you had a complaint, I wish you would have said something to me personally and I would have gladly corrected it.

That all said, I know my attitude keeps y'all from buying stuff from me, and that is fine. I have more orders than I know what to do with and so far have had many, many happy customers. For others that wish to do their business elsewhere, as long as you're happy with the service, price, and parts you recieve, no matter where you get them, I'm happy for you. :grin:
 
Glad to hear about the job:D I could understand their reasoning but it was an honest mistake. :thumb:

As a business you are good to deal with, as a person you can be an a$$. Imagine how much more business you would have if you could bite your tongue once and a while. Just because you can post a reply in a thread doesn't mean you should :deal:

And I would PM if I could and am frankly too lazy to email.

Glad to hear you're happy with your parts, to me that is all that matters.

I tried PMing you and emailing you last night but both are turned off on your account.
 
Timmay, if you read his original post, and not someone else's response, then you would see that he is only showing off a truck he is trying to buy. He never asked for yours or any opinion at all, but once again, because you are the all knowing Timmay, you had to offer an opinion and try to show that you are SO much smarter then everyone else.

Looks like a nice truck to me. I am sure that you will enjoy it for a long time if you end up with it.:cool1:

It's a 12 valve and I'm definatley working on talking them down from $14k. I'm gonna go check it out alittle better today. Didn't really get a chance to crawl around under it and poke and prod at stuff.
Well, if it's pretty darned snappy once it gets going maybe someone turned up the pump or even changed the injectors at one point, you'll have to find out. I do suspect something not completely stock if it pulls as well as you say and obviously has guages already. ;) That would be pretty cool if it is bombed a little. Back when I was shopping I drove a 98 12v with a turned up pump and injectors but with an NV4500. It was a lot of power once the turbo spooled up but it lagged bad...but with the auto in that truck you only have to deal with a sluggish turbo once. :cool1: THe more I thought about 14K isn't all THAT bad, especially if it is turned up a bit. If you like it I would go for it, and getting them to drop a little would be icing on the cake. ;)


As far as TIm, we all know him, thats who he is and probably will never change. He does have good tech advise almost all the time but can make very rude statements at times (don't feel bad, you should have seen what he said in my thread about when I told everyone I had bought my dodge cummins). I have picked that all he cares about is a sale these days.....thats about it. He is your best friend.....unless he thinks you aren't going to buy anything from him and then you don't deserve to be in his presence.... :laugh:

But in his defence, his post about how much a truck was that he looked at wasn't all that bad...a little rude, but not near as bad as I've seen him get. :laugh:

personally i'd rather have a bone stock rig than one thats already been "bombed". you dont know how much the PO's have been throttling it. the more a motor is souped up and the more fuel it burns, the shorter its lifespan will be.

down the road form me i found a 99' ram 2500 ex-cab longbed daully with the Cummins for $8,000

Andrew

am i the only one that thinks this sounds WAY WAY WAY to good to be true?


did you meen a 89??? lol

you truck looks very nice and kleen jethro, tobad its not extended or crew cab be alittle cramped on long haul trips, yeah if you can get it a little lower sounds real nice. :waytogo:
 
I have drivin both the 12v and the 24v and the difference is like night and day, i havent towed with eaither one, but we have a big ass bobcat trailer, and I have been told by the bosses brother(he pulls the bobcat most of the time) that the 24v pulls like nothing is behind it, and the 12v luggs alot going up grades like on 50 going up eldorado hills, not shure if you have been up that way:dunno:

If it was me( just my opion) i would hold out for a extra cab, 24v. I like the room in the extra cab alot better, the only thing i diddent like about the dodge(vs. say the '04 3500 cab and chassi d-max we have also) the steering is a littl lose on the dodge, like you have to stay on top of it all the time to keep going straight down the road.
good luck man, and hey if you like it who cares, right?

It depends. My dad was looking at an '02 dmax that was strait piped and had guages. Obviously the PO had a chip in it. Didn't bother me one bit. If I had to guess I would say if a truck is equipped with guages and is setup for more power, the PO wanted to do it right instead of just sticking a chip in or turning the pump up and not caring what is going on with it. Also, with 140K on that '98 and it having a chance of being turned up it probably has a newer tranny in it.

If you were looking at two identical blazers for the same price but one with a stock 350 and one with a built 406...which would you take? :)

stock 350 in a heartbeat.:D

i said i'd rather have it bone stock, doing it right and not doing it at all are two very different things. if that 02' dmax you were looking at was sitting next to an identical but stock dmax, for the same price i'd go stock. sure you might build it exactly the same way and could have saved a few bucks, but you NEVER know how hard it was driven.


If I had to guess I would say if a truck is equipped with guages and is setup for more power, the PO wanted to do it right instead of just sticking a chip in or turning the pump up and not caring what is going on with it.
even if its built properly it still wont last as long as a stock engine. of course thats assuming that the PO was actually using the added power, which is basically a given. just like if you putt around in with a stock engine, it will provide many more trouble free miles than if you floored it all the time.



Also, with 140K on that '98 and it having a chance of being turned up it probably has a newer tranny in it.
or has a fragged tranny thats on the brink of needing rebuilt.
