    Do you have the goofy chrome Big Horn letters on the front doors too?

    First, without a doubt will be to black out the front 2 windows... then a Spray-in bedliner, followed by an exhaust brake.

    No need for engine mods.... who needs more than 610ftlbs anyway? :stir: rotfl

    VERY nice truck. waytogo

    Only thing I would change (other than the brand ;) ) is to remove all those stick on things. I had the dealer strip all the vinyl and stick on logo junk before I would take delivery. The only thing I left was Silverado, 2500HD, and Duramax; and I was wavering on having those pulled off too.

    610 ft/lbs will be fine, until you ride in one that has 800+ :D
