Was '08 the last yr of the 5.9L Cummins in Dodge pickups? '07. They switched half way through, so 2007.5 and later got the 6.7.

So looked at a 2006 Tacoma.....
For all out resale value, I can't think of a truck that beats a Toyota Tacoma. Maybe it is just a Colorado thing, but they are the best I have seen. The 2000-2008 were THE most popular year models & body styles. They sure did ugly them up in the last few years. And, the 2016's are hideous.

Hopefully that means resale on the 2016s will be chitty, because I dig that tan color they've got on 'em...

It does look pretty damn good I saw a new tan one the other day with black wheels and mud tires. It really caught my eye too. The styling is a step in the wrong direction though. I still like the looks of my 2011 model better.
Now with even more aplomb

Picked up a 93 Cummins Dodge a few weeks ago for a crew work truck. 71K original miles. Those old engines are great, sounds like a Swiss watch, the old trucks themselves not so much! I don't think it will ever be worth much, but I do know it will serve me very well, for a very long time, for it's intended purpose. The best part is it's paid for so all the driving is pure gravy. I drive a 99 Cummins 4x4 every day as a work truck, and will drive it until it becomes impractical to maintain. At 175K right now, and the truck is almost perfect. Must be getting old as the appeal of new trucks is past.  I did buy a Toyota Tacoma last year, but I'm not in love with it. 2009 with about 70K miles, might be for sale soon.

Dibs if you ever sell the 93 Dodge. Seriously Let me know on the Tacoma as well. May be in the market soon...
