A big welcome aboard. Don't be a stranger around here. These guy's and gal's are awesome here. They will help you out a lot and will save you a lot of money. Of course on the other shoe they will help you spend a lot, a lot of money but of course that money isn't going to the dealerships. good luck on finding a truck. They are a lot of fun.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. Clay you were the first to jump in and i've read nothing but good things you've done to help people. Look forward to learning more. Izzy(Joe) I think we had some pavement buckle up here in Northern Indiana from a hole shot you pulled down in Texas. Sounds like you're putting some serious torque on the asphalt. And Redboat what can I say---THAT is an avatar!! Again, Thank you all and I look forward to learning from everyone. Tony

Welcome aboard Tony. As already said stick around and you will learn loads. Also spend loads but the money you save from doing it yourself and better, you will still be ahead of the game as compared to going to a stealership. With a more reliable more powerful truck. Good luck and I too am looking forward to seeing the pics of your new truck.

Watch out for that PMS.
Even if you have an iron will, the engine is made out of iron and outweighs you by 700 lbs. You will lose.
