I'm seriously considering another 4X4. This one would be a full size 2003-2006 Ram 2500. They run $7000-$10,000. I'd need to put a complete lift kit in it. Kor Racing has what I want. Either 35 or 37 inch tires, five, and wheels. New 5.7 Hemi engine as the average mileage on a 2003 is about 137,000 miles. A few other things, like a custom front bumper, so my angle of attack matches my angle of departure. 4.56 or more in the differentials. True-Trac in the front and a Detroit Locker in the back.
I'd need a trailer to tow it behind my camper rig.
I figure $20,000 to $25,000 all together.
It would have twice the range of my Jeep Wrangler. I would sit higher up for better visability. With a roll bar in the bed, I could sit on it to glass, etc.
I'm thinking I'm going to need something else where I'm going to be hunting. Flat, thick washes of desert Ironwood. 100 sq. miles of land where I'll need to stay on the move to find fresh tracks.
Yes, I can afford it.
So, what do you think ? E
