Craigslist, cars.com.....

What kinda 12  valver you after? Year, reg., extended or quad cab? Tranny? 2 or 4 wheel drive? How picky are you?

I will keep my eyes open, I happen to look for them all the time anyways.

Long range and ultra reliable, so 5spd?

If you're OK with a reg cab or extended cab, and 2wd then it won't be that hard to find the right truck.

TDR has several:

1997 Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 CTD

PRICE REDUCED TO $6990!Although I have said I would keep this truck until I die, I have decided to sell her. She has no job anymore, and she needs to work again.

Price is $7990. I am putting up a group of photos on a web site, but if you need a shot or something, just ask. EMail me at: DonGeneda@rgv.rr.com

1998,12V,QC,4x4,SB, Laramie/SLT "grail" truck
1998 Dodge Ram Laramie/SLT 2500 “Grail” truck, 4x4 Quad cab short bed, with the 12 valve Cummins turbo diesel. This truck has the rare combination of the bullet proof 12 valve Cummins diesel engine, quad cab, 4x4, and short bed. Dodge only made this combination for about 6 months in 1998 before switching to the 24 valve engine. The truck has new Yokahama all season tires, Auto trans, driver and passenger airbags, power windows and door locks, cruise control, power seats, heated mirrors, power mirrors, tilt steering, sliding rear window, running boards, new windshield, outside air temp and electronic compass, boost and EGT gauge, Killer dowel pin (KDP) is tabbed, new pioneer stereo with blue tooth for hands free cell phone operation and USB interface for lots of music, FOB door lock/unlock, ice cold AC, and new front brakes, rotors, and calipers, Engine is just now broke in with 239K miles and runs great. I will be moving south and won’t need a 4x4 truck in the warmer climate. This is a very clean and stock truck, and has never been in a major accident per Carfax and is rust free. The fwd works great and the transmission shifts fine. Additionally, this engine and mechanical injection system will convert well to WVO, SVO or biodiesel if that is something you’re interested in doing. I will also include a set of 4 like new studded snow tires on Dodge steel wheels. Truck location is Seabeck WA asking $9999.00 obo email address is Titan.iv@hotmail.com

TurboDieselRegister.com - pay to play forum...

You might be able to view the classifieds without registering though.

12 valves suddenly got more difficult to find when California went to required smogging of 98 and above trucks. The 98 12valves have to be smogged, and that's a pain. But 89-93 first gen, and 94-97 second gen trucks do not.

Not a second gen but it sounds like a good deal.

'92 auto 4x4 218K miles $3000. Will probably sell quick, if it was a manual I'd be after it!
