Yeah thats the main reason, I can afford to drive it but the fuel mileage could be alot better, I'd also like to be a little more competative in areas like.....DRAG RACING

you might be able to afford the gas but the question is can you afford to fix broken parts on your every day driver? take into consideration that drag racing it on a reg. basis can become a money pit.just lookin out brother

I'm not a big fan of raised trucks... I think that they look good, but unless you have a really good lift, and the installer knows what they are doing, and the user knos how to service it once it's on, it's only problems...

Bring it down a tad...

It really has been great, but the fuel mileage does kinda suck now, and high 14's at the strip just isnt good enough, me and the ol man have decided, when I get home on leave, she's comin down......

Scott Zaffram, he was the first 3rd gen on 40's that anybody ever saw. He's known as camotanker on this site if he's not been banned. his truck has been called the MonsterRig for about 4 years now.
