Well it's been 2 hours so far so I am guessing approx 1000 years.  which is good because at that point I will have enough saved to pay it off %100

[BBHD]

Congratulations! Now I'll have to keep an eye out for it when I'm passing through!

[Royal Squire]

Congratulations! Is that a winter front on there.

Congrads to you Nick for the new truck... Now you should be able to make it out here and do a camp out...

[AH64ID]

Awesome you will really like it! I had a lot of fun putting 1500 miles on my dads '17 last month. 

 

Did you look into the air assist suspension?

 

What made you stick with the G56? I love my NV5600 but I'd be getting an Aisin if I bought one today.

Quadzilla 6.7 edition???

I dont want to mess with an auto again.  I am sure the 6 speed autos are better, but it SUCKS to tow in the mountains with an auto.   no air assist, just good old fashion leaf springs.  

 

trying to keep it simple, we intend to keep this truck for a very long time, or until we see a 3500 electric with  diesel generator

I believe my wifes words were as follows "keep your grimmy mits off of it"  to that I said " well if I don't have a 2nd gen my hands wont be grimmy"   

 

 

lololol  so no, stock for a long time.

[Me78569]

I hope to do some towing with the Aisin in the mountains this summer. I've never heard a bad thing about them and they are nothing like the 47/48 or even 68. I expect it to do as well as, or better, than my NV5600. 

 

It just sucks how much torque you give up with the G56. 

[Me78569]

Meh 600+ is enough for me.  My truck was grossly over powered for my needs.

 

Nice and simple is what I want.

[CTcummins24V]

4" or 5" exhaust at least, those new trucks are too quiet

[dripley]

Congrats, nice step up to make. Good price too.

[Me78569]
