first and only mod was to pull the lift blocks out of the back at 90 miles on the clock. they measured around 1.5"

First road trip with a Gsxr 600 and a keg in the bed for a little over 300 mile road trip averaged 23.4mpg at 79 cause 80 doesn't go into 4cyl mode lol


that is all for now

thanks, biggest reason i got a brand new one was for the chance to build credit to buy my own house once this is payed off.

plans are some sort of drop (daily driver friendly), intake,exhaust, factory 20's, and drive the shit out of it as a daily.

i drove a 14 last night holy shit, amazing trucks.

hopefully by six speed you mean the factory trans and not swapping a 6 speed into it.

What issues were you having with the 06? I don't remember..

it was just showing its age with 96k ad driven hard its whole life. the front end had a random clunk that i could not for the life of me find out. it needed a steering rack, the guy that painted it for me flaked out way to damn much and never had time to fix the fuck ups in the paint then wondered why i wouldn't throw a decal with his shops name on it and go to car shows with him. it was a pain in the ass to get in and out of my work with it being so low. on a side job had a for transmission tip over in the bed and collapse one of the wheel tubs and had a constant tire rub in the back after that lol.

Eventually i would like to get another nbs but start with 4wd for an awd monster.
 
I've never noticed that before, that's a retarded spot for a mudflap. Those are awesome mpg numbers tho!
