I love this truck as well. I should have gotten a regular cab rather then an extre cab, oh well, next time.

Jealous would be an understatement...

Paul M · 03-17-2011, 10:08 PM

hehe yea..was worth the wait..soon as i seen her..i was like..im in love! the covered bridge is the last longest one left in oregon. was built in '45 and restored a bit ago. its now on the park grounds there where one of the oldest mills was built back quite some time ago. mill is long gone,but they decided to keep bridge and now its a historical site.

Very SHARP... are you going to stick a front leveling kit on it? How do you like the seat fabric? The 07-09 are lint traps... My 09' crewcab is getting the new 11' covers installed next week... I seen the new covers yesterday... they look soooo much better than the old style.

Paul M · 03-18-2011, 06:31 PM

yea..going with the bilstien leveling shocks for this. the seat fabric seems ok so far,though i did order a balistic seat cover since i work in a machine shop and have metal chips on me alot. so hoping the seat cover lasts a bit

Paul M · 03-24-2011, 12:11 AM

dishow · 03-24-2011, 03:29 PM

Very sharp! You rarely see regular cabs anymore unless they are the stripped down work truck version. Your wait was worth it!

DannyK · 03-24-2011, 05:39 PM

Beautiful truck ! Are they still calling that "Victory Red"? I didn't know you could get a 6 speed auto now; how cool !

Paul M · 03-24-2011, 06:42 PM

the remote can give the current fuel amount in the tank, miles and tire air pressures. also shows which doors are locked or unlocked and time left on the auto start cycle. there are other remotes like this that do a few more things..like sun roof operation i believe and radio station preset search for those tail gating trips..lol

FLDBRED · 07-25-2011, 09:14 AM

Wow! That's a sharp looking truck! I wish they would offer the 6.2 in the regular cab 4x4!
