Hi Guys,
I'm shopping around for a truck to buy for towing a small camper, boat and doing other jobs. I would also like to be able to drive it around town without sucking my pocketbook dry. I was looking at a 2001 dodge ram 1500 with the 5.9L in it. I've heard this is a gas guzzler from hell so here is my question; Is there anything I can do to improve the efficiency of this engine or should I just go and buy a GMC or Chevy with the 5.3L in it?
I could probably pick the dodge up for around $15K. Any testimonials regarding this model and input is greatly appreciated.
