It has 3500 lb. with a 4 cylinder. I had some doubts but several CCF friends said go for it". Local pulling, in an out of ramps, seems to be no problem. It takes hills better than the old S-10 with the six. Today's maiden voyage will be very enlightening. My daughter bought the bling and my wife and son did a great job in placement and installation. The kid knows his ***************. I live next to a guy that owns a towing service and garage and he was blown away by how well we did in spacing and lining up all the letters, Thanks WhiteLakeRider. |

I wish FORD would bring the Ranger back. Kapla picked one up down in South America, its a sweet truck, I am half tempted to buy one down there and ship it back. Maybe Seb will sell me his when he moves to his next toy... |

Nice rig Jackie! I wish more manufacturers would make an affordable mid size truck with greater fuel economy. Hardly anyone needs a half ton that will tow 12,000 lbs. Hopefully Chevy wont price that truck way to close to the full size truck like Dodge did late in the Dakota's life.

A cool Dad would not use the words old and truck when talking about his only daughters transportation needs, right Maddie? Mary Fran says something red and convertible would be a start---- |

For thousands of years men have felt the irresistible urge to go to sea, and many of them died. Things got better after they invented boats.

Those are really nice. I'm glad Chevy got back into the midsize/compact game. That's a really nice option with everything getting huger and huger. Sharp looking too.

Charlie, you either need a red boat or blue truck!
Seriously, nice looking rig. Pretty easy to maneuver with a regular cab short bed. |

Thanks,
I put aftermarket leaf spring hangers and shackles in the rear, and lowering springs in the front. It got the lowering kit from Belltech. It is 3 inches lower in the front and 4 inches lower in the rear. The wheels are from a 2014 Texas edition Chevy truck. |

While I am not a P/U fan, that GMC looks pretty nice. What did you do to the suspension?
