New Truck

My lease is up on my '06. Just got my hands on an '08 Super Crew 150" wb. Stone green with Pueblo gold accent, chrome pkg, sirius, 6cd, pwr slider, pwr seat, trailer tow mirrors with heat, 3.73 ls, towing pkg, 5.4. I'm psyched. I like my 06', but the supercab got old after a while in crowded parking lots trying to load things in. Having the remote start taken out today, plow stuff on friday, so I hope to be in it this weekend. Here's hoping

After you have had a chance to drive it around with the TT mirrows please post and give your opinion on the wind noise that you get from them. I would like to trade mine for a set but am just worried they will be noisy.

picked it up yesterday and had it on the highway at 75 or so. Just as quiet if not more quiet than my '06 regular mirrors. What a difference in the view though. Gorgeous mirrors.
