    Nice, but would hate to drive as a daily. We have 4 5500 in our fleet and those things are a stiff ride. Only way they ride nice is loaded down.

    I just got off the phone earlier today with the seller. His name is Jim Todd. If anyone wants his cell, PM me.

    Jim used to sell GM Kodiak 5500 Pickup Upfitted trucks. He has a lot of experience. He left GM when they dropped the medium duty trucks and started selling RAM focusing on C&C trucks.

    On this truck the bed was modified and the whole conversion is sanctioned by FCA. The up-fitter is actually located in Texas.

    The bed was extended 10" up behind the cab with steel. They had to also widen the fenders in the rear because the track width of the rear DANA axle is wider. It has a gooseneck and 5th wheel prep.

    Regarding the front fender flares -- He's done a couple of these and the front fender flares do no accept paint well and it tends to bubble over time. From experience, he's decided to leave the black front fender flares and let the buyer decide if they like it or not. He seems to think a little of the 5500 vestige is nice.

    About how it rides -- He said the wheelbase and the bed and the 52 gallon tank helps smooth out the ride a bit and the ride "isn't as bad as you might think." He said when towing, it's a beast.

    About why he didn't go to Ford -- He thought the RAM C&C line of 3500 / 4500 and 5500 trucks are the best in this segment. He doesn't like the Ford engine and thinks that there is a lot of untapped potential for business on 5500 RAM trucks and even larger down the road.

    The upfit cost him over $14k including transportation back and forth to Texas from North Florida. List on the truck would be around $83k ($68,100 sticker + Upfit). The web price of around $75k includes discounts. (I'm sure like everything else in life -- it's negotiable.)

    He has done these before and just recently sold one to a buyer in Michigan who had it shipped up there. He said it was in stock after getting upfitted for less than a month.

    His goal was to make these done right with no compromises as if it came from the factory like this.

    Seems like a nice guy -- likes to talk trucks -- and didn't seem to be blowing smoke.
