The
History of Haulin' AssThis first page is dedicated to our wonderful, hard working, Dodge Cummins Diesel Trucks, Past & Present.
This is also a look into our lives on the road, as most of the photos are taken during our Long Hauls.
Pictures are taken in Alaska, Yukon Territory, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana.

This is our Old Dodge, the first hauler. Our 1990 Dodge 350, 12 valve Cummins Turbo Diesel, 5-speed manual transmission, 1 ton, long bed, regular cab, fully stock. This truck worked hard, and still drives around home with a friend. Has a good strong Cummins Diesel engine that just won't let you down! |
We were just posing for pictures in these shots. Unfortunately I do not have any pictures of myself with the Old Dodge. |

Next is our Old 1998 Dodge 2500 HD, 12 valve Cummins Turbo Diesel, Long Bed, Quad Cab. Pretty well Stock when he arrived, left with K&N Air Filtration, Headache Rack,
Bored out Turbo, plenty of new parts including injector pump, Modified NV4500 5-speed Manual Transmission, Gooseneck hitch, and so much more.
This truck was well known in my family as my "Big Rig", the hardest working truck I have had so far.
We Logged well over 115,000 miles in two years of Transporting Alaska's Horses around the state, through Canada, into and out of the Lower 48 States.
(Now thats a lot of Oil Changes!)
