Re: GMI exclusive first head on shot of new dodge 3500 dually
You said it the fence did stink and the lightpost that was in front of the tester did not help matters at all. Anyway here are the two pictures i took on my second attempt sorry for the shaky quality but it's hard to shoot and drive at the same time

Why don't you just stop the car?

Re: GMI exclusive First shots of Dodge 3500 Dually model (now with new pics)
For three reasons
1. Chrysler drive has no shoulder at all which means If I do stop the car I hold up traffic 2. Even If theres no Traffic and it's clear I can only keep it stopped for a short period of time in the event some speeder comes blasting through or if security happens to show up 3. the truck was parked in the one spot on the lot where i couldn't get any good angles at all if it were parked a little more to the right I would have been able to stop further down the road and get a good shot. If the truck was to the left more i could've pulled in the parking lot that was off camera and gotten some good steady shots. Anyway i will be going through there tomorrow in my truck and if the dually is still there I hope the higher ground clearance will give me a little more visibility to work with. And for the record I do stop my car but only if it is safe ( I want to live another day and keep shooting pictures for GMI BP etc) and if the tester I'm shooting is at a good angle (which was not the case with this one since i tried three different angles) As usual if the pictures come out good this time around I'll post them here ![]()

I'll keep trying to get better pictures of the dually (I'm a very persistent individual) and for the record this Dually has been one of the most difficult testers I have shot so far but even though the image quality could be better these are the first ever shots of a Next Gen Dodge 3500 Dually

Re: GMI exclusive First shots of Dodge 3500 Dually model (now with new pics)
LOL actually most of CTC's security guards drive gray jeep grand Cherokees with a small light bar on the top and if i see one of those driving around I usually leave and stay out for about five to 10 minutes. GM security over at Milford is probably the hardest to predict and identify. They drive cars that are basically unmarked and if they catch you on one of their "photog' patrols they will pull up behind you and stay on you until you leave

Re: GMI exclusive First shots of Dodge 3500 Dually model (now with new pics)
Seeing that the current Cummins is certified for 2010 emissions, and this truck is probably going to be a 2010 model released in 2009, could Dodge be working on an even further emissions certified Cummins, say for example untill 2012-2013?
