Its Here !!!!



Just got my truck of the Trailer on Thurs evening during a snow storm. Had to wait till FRI to go to customs and get the paperwork stamped by the Germans so I was all legal. What a way for the first run. 80 mile round trip on the autobahn at about 130-140 KMPH. I didnt even get to drive it till last night as the wife picked it up and i was working that morning and had to meet here at the customs place. The new 6.7s have some good gitty up and the factory ebrake is great my wife was laughing at me as I was downshifting with it on just to here it .

Truck in Sig pics soon as i get the snow off it and clean it a bit. The snow slush made a mess have about 6 inches still on the ground snow for the past 4 days Gotta love Germany.

I can't imagine trying to swing that thing through some of the streets in Germany, never mind Okinawa!!! Congrats on the truck finally arriving. Watch those narrow roads (esp your mirrors).

Where in Germany are you? Are you on active duty? I used to be stationed in Germany and man do I miss it.

Ya it would be ok on base but some of the streets off base are to narrow for even this.

I am in Hohenfels Germany on active duty, I am used to the roads with the trucks as i also have my 01 here with me. It has the normal mirrors on it so no real clearance issues. The 01 has the tow mirrors and the Frau and I have gotten goods at the mirror drill when driving around.
