Just FYI:
Nitrogen filled Tires.........
The Nitrogen helps reduce the rubber deterioration caused by the Oxygen in the air. (True.....from the tire manufactures)
It is considered well worth it on 5th wheel/Trailer tires. Age kills them before milage does.
NOW...........on Topic......Congrats on the new Rig Dad........ :-) :-)

Not long at all - I went online to configure what I wanted, then did some dealer searches. A match came up at a dealer a couple of hours away, so I called my local sales guy and gave him the VIN - turned out that the truck was still being built ... so about 3 weeks or so until it was at my local dealer. The wait was definitely worth it - what a huge difference in the drivability, particularly the transmission!
