Thanks Jim,

It is actually a funny story though because i didn't really want the dually at first. But then i found this and i basically stole if from the dealership so i really couldn't pass it up. And now i love that i got the dually. Except parking at school is a real pain in the *ss. I love what you did with the motor of your truck, really like the color scheme.

Thanks Matt. Alot of the guys in the 00--3 PSD forum have the same "mods" under the hood. I love the color blue so when I saw the blue metallic I knew that was the one I was going to use. It is a *ss to park them sometimes, most parking spaces are designed for much smaller vechicles.

Yeah you're right. Especially when you have 600-700 kids at school all fighing for the closest spot, meanwhile here i am just fighting for any spot. That's why the spring is so much better when i can take the bike to school everyday. Is your's 2WD?

No mine is a 4x4. The bike would be much easier to park. I'm not to fond of winter.

I just read that. I'm really sorry brother. As I have gotten older I have less and less "love" for winter.
