I am heading to Baton Rouge LA Wednesday to pick up a 96 12V, then heading to Houston on Saturday.
I plan to sled pull and drag race.

Any members that want to meet up, shoot me a line: 715-498-0707

Good luck at the sledpull. I hope you dont break anything. At least you'll have another rig with you and a trailer.

Garrett,

I look forward to seeing you there. Your truck is AWESOME!

There is a big thread from our local group going on.

https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...d.php?t=115530


Some DTR members will be at Diesel Innovations Friday afternoon/evening if you can make it to that. They are having a dinner/get together there. Not sure what all. http://www.dieselinnovations.com/di.php?

If you can't make it to that, hopefully we can see you at Baytown.

Hey thanks guys. Sorry I've been very busy getting ready, and also driving, haven't been on here much.

I am in a Mont Belvieu Super 8 right now. Got the new truck and towed my truck from Lafayette LA to here. Pulls VERY nice for a stock truck.. Its a 96 12V 5 speed 2x4. We took the AFE racing filter off of my truck and put it on the tow rig for the tow.
Very impressed for a truck with only 215HP..
BTW, this is the FIRST stock 12V I've ever driven..

I'm planning to be there after TexasCTD talked me into going.
I meet TexasCTD, Fordsuxs(sp?), Crobtex, XLR8R and RamWheelsBy4 at Diesel Innovations party last night.

I was the white quad cab that went #4 in line, behind the Duramax, I did 272'. the 'track' needed a little work, but overall, I was very happy with the results, but I do need some traction bars and some more hp

Good to meet you Garrett. I met you in the parking lot when you were unloading your 98. Awesome truck and Awesome PULL!!! Very impressive.

And I will second what JDGnut said......your "new" 96 probably won't stay stock for long!! Your GF told me what you paid. Sounds like a bargain!! Congrats!


And MikeyB.....you know now what you would have missed had you not come on out!! Your entering the sled pulls next year right??

I saw your pull! Great job! You are giving me inspiration since we have similar trucks!

Didn't realize that was you. I have a couple of pics of your run.
