    I haven't been hanging around here too much but I am in the process of buying a new truck. Here is a pic of it. It is an 04 2500HD 4x4 Duramax. Miles are still pretty low on it. Has a spray in bed liner and all the options for an LS model. No badging is on the thing which is think is one reason I am drawn to it.

    Very nice good luck on getting it not to mention I think the debaged look is good with the black.

    Good looking truck. The removed badging does look good, I just did my Ram. I like the mono chrome look.

    Well, all the paperwork and the down payment have been sent. Shoul dbe at the house in a week or so. Just wish I would be at home waiting for it to show up. Should be back in 2 months or so to take it for its initial drive but I am sure the wife will be driving it before me and telling me all about it. Will update as soon as I drive it in May.

    Like John said I am out of Jacksonville, NC.

    I git a lead on a 24ft bumper pull trailer right now. Going to wait until I get back before I look into it any more and I always have the Chickadee sitting at the house.

Should be in the carport this weekend. It got there on Monday and getting registered on Monday.I worked out a deal on Freds trailer and will be buying that before I get back.

    Not a problem I may even talk Joy into letting me test out how it pulls:pimp: . I put the leveling kit on mine today, real easy just need to rent a ball joint press, 2 hour job max and I am digging how it sits. On the 28th my H2 rims should be here :D

    Well send me some pics to my e-mail. I sent one to your work a few days ago. Well if you want to drive it might as well wait until Tuesday or Wednesday. Joy is in Alabama registering it for me. I might come and borrow yur truck and trailer when I get home just to see how it pulls myself. Need to find another rig when I get home. Maybe John has one sitting down there taking up space.

    Yeah ha ha ha funny. They way she has been talking, I think she likes driving it better than the van. She "said" she wasn't going to drive it anymore unless to get it inspected or get the decal on it, but I know her better. It will have a few extra thousand miles on it when I get home.
