Nice looking ride. After owning a black 4th gen I wished I bought a white truck. Congrats buddy, so when the twins turbos/dual CP3's going on

So what exhaust you going with? You at least have that stock emission junk ripped off soon. The H&S overdrive works nice as well.

Sharp looking ride Jamie! How do you like the carli setup? I'm debating whether or not to do their leveling kit or the backcountry kit.

It just needs full deletes now

I'm installing Bilsteins 5165 remotes onto mine, as the stock shocks just don't cut it in the ruff stuff. Heard good tihngs about the carli stuff.

So what do you think about the 2012 interior coming from a 07?

A must mod is the the in-cab air filter, I have one in my truck and its one of the best/cheap mods going.

I just wished that I bought a dually or a 8ft bed truck, as my bed gets full in a hurry. I want to haul a slip tank, the short bed gets full in a hurry, so you can only haul small loads.

I've been pretty impressed with the 4th gen truck, as of today, I haven't broken anything yet besides the seats.

Let the bombing begin buddy.

Super nice new truck Jamie! I'm surprised that you went with white!


I'd be in such a quandry if I had a new 6.7L. Warranty vs. stupid emissions, vs. poor fuel mileage, vs. EGR, DPF, vs. head gaskets vs. 68RFE..

And 4th Gens are so much nicer than the 3rd Gens in many ways.

Has the aftermarket finally figured out the 68RFE?
I understand that the 2013 Cummins pickup will also get DEF/Urea injection??


Best of luck with the new truck!!

Bankdude, my 02 just going to have to be taken off the road for abit. Needs some front end TLC and front/rear axle upgrades.

FYI steering braces works awesome on the 4th gen, the steering wheel goes from bouncing in your hands to a nice firm steering and no bouncing. Probably works better than it did on the 2nd gen.

H&S has a nice delete kit for under the hood, allows you to get rid of the egr solenoid/egr cooler. I'm going to run a coolant line from the head into the egr cooler return, most guys don't do that and just put a plug into that line.

MBRP sells a 4in down pipe for the 6.7L around $100 and from there you can just run some 4in chunk of pipe to the stock muffler. Find a shiny tail piece, fancy exhaust system done on the cheap.
