Great looking rig Cajun! Glad you liked the 6.7, I know most of us who owned (7.3 the "golden" engine of super duties) have been blown away by how it performs. Your bumpers look sick by the way.

That is one "Bad@$$" truck! When I went looking for the one I bought on Friday, I tried to find either a Ignot Silver or White Tri-Coat Platinum. They had The white one..Again-Beautiful rig!!!

That truck looks freakin awesome! I have almost 40k on mine and the tires will be replaced before next winter. I like the looks of the Nittos. Are those on factory wheels? I love the front bumper and winch. It is one of the best looks I've seen.

Now I got the fever again.

Great looking truck and again, welcome aboard.

Yes its on factory wheels....They are not the plastic cover....Soild aluminium wheels....My Dodge dully was notting but a plastic cover that never stayed on over a black steel wheel

Well just made a 3.5 hr one way trip. Running 75-80 mph I average 12.4 MPG at the pump. I did not buy it for the fuel milage....LOL

What rims did you go with? Did you have to use spacers to get 35's under it?

How does the small lift effect your fifth wheel hookup? Still got plenty of clearance for your kingpin?

If I remember right, 33 inch tires are the biggest we can go without doing a lift. I would love to do the 2" lift and 35's tho. I sure do like the look of a slightly lifted dually with fat tires on the rear.

How much room is there between the sidewalls? Doesn't look like much. Wonder about when it wold be loaded down? My 5er pin weight is right at 3200#.
