Why are people selling there trucks shortly after putting tripples on them.

[dordtrecht5]

Someone asked a question and individuals responded with their opinion. Question was why are those triple/twin trucks going up for sale. People gave their opinion what did I miss?

Even when people post up a truck for sale some ask why are you selling. In your eyes they should (seller) respond with none of your business.

People are curious. It is a interesting to as why. There is no doubt it could be for other reasons then stated above ,whats the difference? It's just conversation

Ya, it is "just conversation". And...it is just your opinion, just like it is just my opinion. This is NOT the "For Sale" section on the Forum. I know that people like information and have every right to ask a seller why something is for sale. No, I don't think the seller should respond with "none of your business." However, because this is just conversation, I stated a simple opinion. Take it or leave it. I didn't like your reply, but I didn't respond to your reply, I responded to the OP with my opinion. If you don't like my opinion take it with a grain of salt and STFU. :rofl:

How many people have posted in this thread that sold their truck with tripples on it? Count them up. Every single response on here except one, which is Trent's, is pure, unadulterated conjecture and suspicion. Who f cking cares why Truck1 with tripples got sold? I don't. Yes, I have wondered the same thing, but big deal. Maybe he thought he could get more money out of it with two more turbos. I say, good for him.:spit:

Stock engine trucks don't make 1000+ RWHP and blaze rear tires at 90MPH when the second charger is on full boost...........been there and done that in a few trucks.......:rofl:..........I have had a few drivers white knuckling a 7000 lb brick at 100+ mph when the ass end wants to get loose because even at 100+ mph the tires are not up to the HP/TQ in the traction department.



People that ask me to tune a twinned truck are not asking me to hold back on what I do, I use my experience and judgement to make it as safe as I can but in the end when you make 1000+ RWHP something is gonna give.

I have my share of trucks that have held up well, it is trannies and drive shafts and cranks that seem to give up more quickly.

If you want it to stay together the recipe is there, Cummins, cummins, cummins, cummins, cummins, cummins, cummins.

:woott:

Fixed it for you.

Fixed it for you.

HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA...........yeah, OK, a Cummin's.......?

All it is is a potato chip truck motor or a generator motor wrapped up in a turd of a truck............:rofl:

Maybe someday the 12V-P-Pump trucks will climb out of the dark ages and be comparable to a dmax........didn't Butkhardt hand them Cummins boyz there azzes for how many years running..........??

Had to check today's date to make sure it wasn't April 1st.

What I am wondering is why is anyone begging the question to begin with. None of my business why anybody would buy or sale. Just like its nobody's business why I would do the same.

The reason is because they want, and can sell.

I understand that the op has the intention of learning if there is something inherently "wrong", but damn. I'm not trying to be a doucher about it, just posting an opinion.

There is ALWAYS a risk with going aftermarket. If you don't want to take the risk, put a cai and a catback exhaust on and be content.


x2 i agree with this statement. and i am one of the people that is selling my truck. honestly its just like tony said, half of you guys have no idea what it is like to have a 1000wrhp + truck and try and drive it and race it and do whatever the hell else it is you do with a truck and it not cost you money always. it is a adrenaline rush like no other but after a while it gets old wondering if your gonna tear shit up everytime you drive the stupid thing. i also agree with whoever said that they had the most fun in their stock turboed 500hp truck. when i had that i always ran the biggest tune everywhere and beat the crap out of it and it was fun and seemed fast at the time. then like mackin said greed got the best of me and i wanted more, and more and more, till now i have a truck that makes probably 1200hp in the biggest tune and you know how many times it has seen that tune.....1 time. you know why, because one its downright retarded doing those 90mph+ burnouts tony was talking about and 2 you always are scared of whats gonna break next. i run my truck around in the smallest tune all the time. its probably 550-600 but its plenty. i made some mistakes along the way on the money end of things and im burnt out on it and want to see it go to someone that has the money to take it and do what its built to do and not worry about shit that tears up. just my .02 cents. flame suit ready as all the the threads i post in turn into that.

oh and it has nothing to do with the triples. the truck runs better then it ever has with them on it, they sound amazing, and look good too. just wish i had gotten my other intercooler pipe...:hug:hey trent!

Lulz, I was just trolling. But I think anyone will agree that a cummins cost less money to make big hp and is more reliable. I'll still stick to my duramax though!

You have no clue. Talk to any cummins owner that has track proven 1000hp and let me know how cheap and reliable they say it is.

Yep, cummins world up where I live. Not many guys go beyond 6-700hp without major problems. Lots of melted pistons up here. Part of it is there hasn't been decent tuning available. The rods are definately strong, but they have other issues.

I should have been more specific. Once you are close to 1000hp its all about the same, doesn't matter if its cummins, duramax or powerstroke.
I'm talking about 7-800 hp.
