    I had just got loaded and was about 3.5 miles down the haul road from the quarry and about 7 miles from the highway. Now that u say it. I'm sure if I was thinking clearly at the time we could've managed to get by with just the excavator . But still would've needed a tow down the road.

    For what it's worth my little 13 liter is down to 5.7mpg average running 80 to 85 at 75mph. I'm more than pleased, but an x15 will likely be in the next truck I buy. Hopefully this time next year I can have 2 trucks running. Then eventually not have to drive unless I want to.

    Yes. Plus the 35k body shop bill. And 1 month of downtime. But took 3.5 months to fix

    What size tires you running Stwik?

    I have 3:70 cogs with 24.5 tall rubber. I’m sure we have a different transmission too…..

    You guys know what suspension this airbag goes to? I'm thinking the kw 8 bag? Let me know if any you guys need it. Doesn't go to my truck.
