Another arrival

Picked mine up Friday evening.
I'm impressed so that's a good thing.
+/- 250 miles with avg. MPG of 15.4 (msg center), mostly 50 and 55 speed zones. Too few miles at this point but it's a start. 3.31 ELD.

This picture will do for now.
I know, the Continental's have to go...lol.




And an updated picture.
Truck in its natural habitat.

Post up a pic when you change out the tires. I'm still trying to decide which ones I am going to get.

Congrats on the great looking truck

I know that its been a long 12-week wait for you but your patience has finally paid off. I've also ordered a supercab rather than a crew cab but as of today my truck is still in processing after 9 weeks - so no VIN, build date. There is no way that I'll get my truck built and delivered to me on the west coast in 12 weeks now.

Well, I didn't get issued a VIN until 11 weeks 5 days (11 days after the truck was built) so it's still possible for you to get it in the same amount of time as mine.

Mine came with Michellins. Not sure what the criteria is as to which trucks get which tires.

FINALLY!!

Someone else who appreciates the beauty of Sterling Gray!!! I thought I was the odd ball (maybe still am) for ordering a color that it appears no one did. Granted, I was under a lot of family pressure to break my streak of blue vehicles...

I really like how the chrome looks on this vehicle color.

Congratulations!!

Michellins are on the 20 inch rims, I believe all other tire/rim combinations are Contis.
