Nice looking truck. That is the best looking grill I have seen in a GM truck in years and the tires fill up the wheel wells nicely taking away that boxy cut out they have. Very nice.

By the way Builder, he did get the 6.2 with 3.42 gears.

Thanks, I think its too much bling, but I'm getting used to it now. The grille is one of the things that bothered me the most..I'm getting over that too.

I know what you mean about the bling-thing. Our tahoe has blinged-out wheels, matching tailpipe, handles, etc. At first I thought it looked a bit "urban" :laughing: but quickly got used to it. Now I get a lot of compliments.

Screw the mileage. Get out there and melt the rear tires! What's life if you don't have fun. I saw a truck like your's beat up on a mustang over the summer. Pretty fun to watch. :thumbsup:

Thanks builder...That's the first good laugh I've had in a while (except when I switched the dash to French)...I'm a-feard to see what those tires cost. But once I break it in, there will be one killer hole shot coming, just one...Stab control off

What part of this dump of a state are you in?..East, West or central?

That is definitely a good looking rig....and 400 ponies to boot.....

Enjoy!!

I actually like PA. Especially now that it's in control of an "R" and we'll just leave it at that.

I am in the extreme SE corner, right on the PA/DE border. My street runs the DE border. I'm actually closer to Wilmington, DE (2 miles) than any other PA town. Love it down here. Roll 1 mile south and get tax free shopping in DE. beautiful farms and lots of potential customers for construction, farm & estate work.

Where you?

I have no problem with the 1/2 ton GM's. I do not care for the interior or the wheel well styling but the rest of the truck is ok. The 5.3L is gutless but other than that they have been decent trucks but not without faults.

The OP got a good looking truck. Like I said before that grill makes it and the larger tires hide some of the big wheel wells and makes it much better looking in my eyes than the average one. He did good by skipping the ancient 5.3 and getting that 6.2

Where I have a problem is the 3/4 ton and 1 ton GM trucks from about 01 to 10. The light weight chassis, torsion bar front suspension, ect. Again I do not care for the interior or square wheel wells but the chassis was just not up to par.

That all changed with this 2011 GM 3/4 ton and 1 ton. They now have a real chassis but stuck with the torsion bar. That would be my last choice on a HD.

Thanks for taking note:thumbsup:
