Default introduction... school me!

hello my name is Cody Capps. I live in the panhandle of FL, i'm a big fan of the 2nd generation dodge ram. I own a 1998 dodge ram. But, I didn't sign up to tell you about my ram which i'm sure most of you chevy guys hate :P No, see I am a 17 year old young man. back in the day my grandpa bought a 79 corvette. that corvette was passed onto my dad and was going to be my car until. It was stolen, you see we lived in the middle of nowhere and my parents left it at a their friend's house and he moved and didn't care about the car and just left it. well I remember that fateful day we got news he moved and we went back. and the car was gone. we still have the title to the car but no 79 vette in the yard. anyways i'll continue this on the c3 section. but I am here so school me. I know some stuff on these 2nd gen ram trucks and I picked my 98 ram for $800 so work doesn't scare me . I always thought if I could find that car i'd swap a 350 with a manual transmission.
