    That's a good looking truck. Unfortunately it's not what I am looking for. Are you trading it in?

    Unless I find a buyer for it yes. I trade every 3-4 years.

    Ya know, this little 450 hp and 10 spd move this truck where ever I ask it to go. 3.73 gears make it easy to get along with. Most trucks on the road haul freight from sea to shining sea with only a 10 spd. Its got to be a pretty big hill for me to have to drop a gear.

    That being said, I’m on the lookout for a 13spd and a tall ratio cut off with disk brakes. Then I can sell my cut off to @singlescrewshaker.

    I typically don't go on any rides. They look fun but I'd be paranoid something would break the entire time. I get my thrills on the mountain bike. At least if it breaks its because I caused it lol.

    Man i gripe about my 13 spd out west here. A 10 speed would put me over the edge. But i only got 3.25 so that might be the problem

    Try a 10 speed with 2.80 rears on lp22.5s.

    I'll trade off triple digits for being able to pull a hill without loosing 15mph plus
     
    cke, dwells40, Nostalgic and 6 others Thank this.
