Quick Truck Question

Today we have the internet and Google where we can try searching to find just about anything. There are diesel trucks and people who work on them and parts for them in Mexico – you just have to look. I think just about any make can be found. I looked for Dodge Ram because that was the original question. I also posted that I personally have seen Ford pickups and been to a Ford dealer where parts and service on Diesels can be found. There are others. And I am sure there are still more that do not have an internet presence. Just look

Some Ram diesels for sale in Mexico – not saying buy one there but they do have them which could mean they have parts somewhere . . . . http://autos.trovit.com.mx/autos-usados/dodge-ram-diesel

Here’s one listed for sale in Mexico. Seems someone has a Dodge diesel in Mexico – can they get parts and service – maybe ask them . . . http://auto.mercadolibre.com.mx/MLM-523560096-2005-dodge-ram-2500-4x4-disel-_JM

I believe Dodge uses Cummins engines? Lots of Cummins repair places in Mexico. Here is at least one website where you can search for Cummins. I am sure there are many other ways to search. They list the engines they work on and have parts for. More searching should turn up more results for other engines by other manufacturers where parts and service might be found somewhere in Mexico.
