Thanks
Bill
Bill I love the Truck. Without question the Duramax and Allison Transmission combination are Awesome. I don't see myself changing it for a very long time. It pulls my boat and racecar trailer with such ease you don't know it's really there. My GMC 1500 before wasn't even close.

I put a 6" Lift with Rancho shocks on the truck. It makes the ride a lot different. Much bumpier.
The Rims are 17"x9" with a Toyo 34" Open Country Mud Terrain. They are really good drivers. Not real loud but Look fantastic 295/70-17's.

This truck I would recommend to anyone. The diesel over gas is a no brainer. The power/torque difference is huge. The way I drive it doesn't get a huge chunk better mileage but that is my lead foot. I have a manager that has virtually the same truck with a New Airbox on it and he gets over 20mpg's.

Buy One You will love it

Fantastic house, collection and garage! Something to strive for, and it looks like the kids have the bug as well...

GLOVES GLOVES GLOVES!! Please put gloves on the kiddos in the Karts, if and when they come out of them, their poor little hands will be the first things to hit the ground!!

Your Garage House is awesome, your cars are too. I miss my 550 Replica, it was an absolute hoot (fast and light), I just couldnt get over the danger factor in Chicago with the soccer moms in SUV's.

All my cars are white too!!

Final Addition to the stable for a while
