Wow! That's a good looking truck! My '20 was the only one around when I bought it. Thanks to the 'rona, there aren't too many 20's on the road around here. Congrats' Brett on the beautiful truck and it's nice to see you hanging out again! Stop by the one pager if you have the time
What kind of leveling kit did you go with? I used a BDS with the adjustable track bar. Love it!

Thanks Andre. So far there is only one other ‘20 in town here, originally I wanted to order, but the Rona put a stop to that . Found this truck with everything I wanted so I grabbed it .
I went with ready lift for now, I wanted to do a 4”, but I bought a 5th wheel last fall and I wasn’t sure how it would tow.
Thanks for the invite

He's no rookie. Steve's right. Brett, get that sig pic updated! Although your 2011 is a sweet ride. Maybe leave them both in there!

Brett, I pulled my mother's with the Fiat with a 4" lift no issues. After adjusting the hitch/pin box, the set-up worked just fine. I pulled another one and there wasn't enough adjustment. It was about an inch or two too tall and caused an ugly rake. However, the 20's are lower to the ground. When I bought my truck there was an identical '19 on the lot with 300 miles on it. Black Platinum. Same spec (even the interior color). The bed height of the '19 was 1.25" taller than my '20. I think you might be pleasantly surprised.

Nice upgrade. Did this directly replace your 2011? Any headlights or grille projects in your current plans with this one?

Congrats on the new truck. The more I look at the 20s, the more I like the new body design. I like the new grill design. Definitely post pics before and after for the leveling kit. What kit you go with?
