Saw some other pics of the Cheby Reaper. It's flares, bumper, grill & hood. Plus a F/I engine. Don't know if its got the suspension to keep up with the Raptor or not. Still ugly though.

[quote=GIGGER;14149381]OK thx Paul, I will prolly leave it as is without a sway bar, an F350 is fine by itself without one

Have a good day truckers, more snow fell here ... :(.... about 4 or 5 inches

New Chev Reaper, can you say fugly, they say its the Raptor competition....

My 23yr old son drives an 05 GMC 2500HD. He bought it in Lloydminster AB sight unseen. It had blown head gaskets so he got it cheap. He had it shipped to Ontario (BTW, never use shipmyride) and rebuilt it. New gaskets, ARP head studs, turbo wheel and some other mods. Have to give him props for his wrenching skills but he's just downright mean when he sends me this picture today. :)

I think they're just for the trucks that use a truck camper to help with high center of gravity and resulting body roll from high CG.

I'd bet that better suspension articulation would be a benefit.

Howdy Joel.......:-wink

Certainly sounds like you have life figured out :)

I have the truck, now I need to swap my travel trailer for a fifth wheel and get retired too. Still need to wait another yr and a bit for my wife to hit early retirement age then we'll be getting out of town for the winters. No longer a fan of the cold.

Lynn and I are thinking about doing some travel in the southern states during some winter months. We will have to Home School Theresa....she is in 1st grade.

Here in Great Falls Montana, we are on I-15. During the fall we see a million Motorhomes and 5th Wheels with Canadian Plates headed south. Soon we will start seeing the Canadian folks headed north.
