Mine's not as fancy as the rest of the pack... I prefer a simple and easy to maintain truck, and I'm young and not full of money. :P Here's mine, though. I notice the interior render doesn't show the 4x4 shift control for the non-ESOF.

Really looking forward to this, huge upgrade on my 06 half ton Silverado. Gonna miss my manual, though.





Nice ride and love seeing the CNG prep. You will get use to the automatic and enjoy the ride but your right hand will wonder what to do for awhile. Where will the tanks be mounted?

Still trying to decide of the CNG is worth it. I'll swap the bed for a flatbed eventually and hopefully will be able to fit the tanks between the rails, I'll still need it to run gas as well for any serious trips as I'm planning on moving to Maine. I wanted to keep the CNG option open though, I'd love to do it I'm just having a hard time learning what I need to know online.

And yeah, our auto trans car died so I've been driving exclusively manuals for the last couple months, and mostly manuals for the last 3 years. Wondering how many times I'll reach to shift before I adjust.

I never thought to ask about the CNG on here, might open a thread on it early next week.

I like your new truck. The auto in the new truck will hold up great. It should be easy to work on and trouble free for many years.

Hope so. Automatics have really improved, and I'm hoping the Torqshift-G proves to be reliable and more efficient. Honestly, trying to back up trailers at nearly (or more likely beyond) the weight limit in my 2x2 half ton manual who's reverse gear really wasn't low enough has been enough to convince me I wanted an auto anyways, but when I recover from this purchase I'll pick up a manual something to daily-drive.

Fancy does not matter. New and exciting will be a great truck and I am sure you will be as happy with it as anyone going for top end. Congratulations on a great order.

I drove over the road trucks for years. Some 10 speeds mostly 13 speeds and a few 16 speeds. I still love to shift but I really love automatics. Enjoy a manual when you can but love the automatic when you want to just go!

Thanks!

Almost bought a king ranch last time but didn't and regretted it. Excited to get one this time. Had to ditch the two tone, never been a fan.

Beautiful rigs in here. Envious that I don't have need for a F250.
