6.0 SD, new owners update

Well, I have had my 05 CC, sb, lariet now for 5 weeks. I must say I really enjoy the truck. It starts ,runs great is comfortable as some luxury cars I have been in and is getting respectable fuel economy. I took it for its first tow today (towed an 8000 lb skid steer on a 200 lb trailer) and WOW. I could not believe how well it pulled. I wanted to give the truck a littel work out but could not find a hill big enough that would slow it down. Don't know what else to say but I do love this truck
