TD3 which is the “bulletproof” diesel. The TD5 has had a lot more issues over the years.
Whisky has killed more men than bullets, but most men would rather be full of whisky than bullets.

That looks amazing Dave. A little paint definitely gives that a sharp look. Good job! That trunk is a nice touch too.

My new Dodge Ram got “pin striped” shortly after I bought it last year. Took it up a 4x4 trail that was about 2ft too narrow. Lol.JDC222 wrote:Thanks! Still lots of branch scrapes but I’m ok with that ...
