Had an interesting one not that long ago. I was at a Flying J, filling up with the fiver attached, and a guy came over asking about the truck, wanted to know about the truck and the hitch and everything. After 10 minutes or so showing him different things, he thanked me for the information, then went and got in his transport to continue pulling his load down the highway.

I don’t get as many compliments as I overhear people talking when they walk by as I’m loading or unloading stuff in the bed.
comments like
“man those are nice trucks”
” I wish one of those fit in my garage”
”wow! That is quite a truck there!”

I was at Ruby's Inn at Bryce Canyon, Came out from eating and there was dark haired lady hanging off the front of my truck and her boyfriend taking photos. I asked what was going one. They said they were from France and had never seen such a BIG truck, ( I also had the 4 horse GN trailer hooked up) We promptly put some cowboy hats on their heads and put both of them on the front and took a bunch of photos for them. I'm building a school right now and hear compliments from my workers almost weekly about good looking my truck is. So yes they get noticed

I often back out of my driveway into a busy street. As I was backing out today an older body style white Platinum SD was in the opposite lane driving towards me. I looked at him as he passed to wave a "thank you" and the guy was too busy staring at the truck to notice my wave lol! I definitely get even more comments in the few weeks since I put the 37's on as well.

I am bone stock and I get at least one comment every time I take the truck out.
doubly so when people see a small woman get out of the driver’s seat. That’s right, this one is MINE!
my husband has learned to say “thanks, it’s my wife’s” when he gets the comments.

I've heard everything from "nice 350" to "I would hate to have to drive that thing". Said by a guy watching me back out of a tight parking spot. Little did he know that I had the 360 degree camera system. Made me look like a pro.

Got three compliments from three different people in the same day. One of them was a business owner I know, he is a Chevy guy but said he really likes my truck. His secretary also commented that's a really good looking truck. Another guy walked up to the window and asked how long I had it. Then he had nothing but praises.
