Pics

These guys!





Installed a brush guard and did some customizing of the stock grille. Added a toolbox.





After removing the brush guard and installing the new grille.





Leveling kit and black paint madness. I also lost some chrome in the process.

NICE!!!!! Great choice man. I love it. The ONLY thing that I don't like about this truck is that it is only 2wd. But you don't really need 4wd down south i guess....Other than that...AWESOME!!! Did you know those subs were in there before you bought the truck? Cause that is an awesome thing to stuble upon LOL Congratulations!!!!!

[obsidian]

had no clue they were in there. I was doing up the paperwork and was running a checklist through my head of shit to look for. I went out there and checked all the fluid colors and levels and just did a thorough walkaround. When I opened the back seat I saw two kicker subs staring back at me. I grinned and shut the back seat back up.

I made out like a bandit I think.

Get a Bully Dog tuner and you will have 1000hp and 1,000,000 ftlbs...I envy turbo diesel trucks...

[obsidian]

I plan on a programmer here in the near future but for now I need to make it more reliable. She is fine right now, but those 6.0 liter issues will be addressed first and foremost.

Y'know how we tell almost all QR25 guys that the first mod is the header?

Well the first mod on this is the EGR delete.

Its a sweet truck man. Now get a sweet boat!

[obsidian]

I have 5 boats already.

2 of these.



And 3 of these.



No sir, I do not wish to own another boat. lol.

[obsidian]

Thanks man. Got her for a good price too. 13,600 out the door.

[07BlackedOut]

Very nice Brando! Let the mods begin!

[duesMANdella]

this is awesome brando. Obviously the only beef i has with it is its 2wd, but its not like your trudging through some snow.
This will be cool to see what you do with it.
Thing is in great shape by the way. thats whats nice about buying 50k dollar trucks, the owners generally keep them clean

[KingDNH]

$3 and you can increase the power on that monstaaaa! lol JK. Turbo Diesel is just a masive torque generating machine. I love it man. Congrats. How does the acceleration feel compared to the lower(edit) torque sentra?

[obsidian]

This big bitch takes off like a bat out of hell.

There is obviously a big difference in weight and size but man, the acceleration doesn't let you know it easily.

I love this truck. I will probably try and bring her to the meet in MD if I'm still invited.

Find me a CVT that can handle 570ftlbs and 325hp in stock form. Remember that this bugger is going to be upgraded also.
