Chris talks about this truck like it’s just a run of the mill stocker, but he runs the wheels off it using it for everyday driving, towing their Titanium 5er, towing their gooseneck trailer loaded with a tractor or two. Plus, it’s NOT just for highway use, it sees plenty of runs down the local ¼ mile and he’s not afraid to hook-up at the area sled pulls (check out the pics in his gallery).
If you ask him,,,, he will tell you,,, ”It’s just a Strong running stock truck 372 hp/862 Trq” ,,,,,,,,, Then he gets a big GRIN.
Congratulations Chris!
Remember folks,,,,, get your pics uploaded to the new Gallery
I got a feeling your wife is going to want equal billing now

I could not have asked for a better birthday present. I turned 25 (for the 18th time) on Dec 31. Thanks to everyone that choose my "stock" truck out of all the great looking trucks on this site.
I have nearly 71,000 on my baby and am looking forward to getting her broke in and see how she drives then, who knows it may develop another 100 HP or so. Then it will really be a "strong running stock truck"
Dennis, thank you for the great write-up.
Top, we are starting B.O.M.B.ing plans for Leigh Ann's truck.
We to wish everyone a safe and happy new year.
Looking foward to seeing everyone in the up coming year.
See Ya
Chris
