Crew cab, nice!! I now have a crew cab for the first time and love the extra room in the back, and being able to comfortably seat 4.

Good luck with it!!

I will leave that one alone






List of future mods:
Spray in Bed Liner (high pressure spray not low pressure like Rhino)
Window visors (got today)
Window tint (0.20 in the rear and 0.30 on the front sides)
Bed cover (undecided on the style i want)
Wheels and tires (no larger than 20" wheels and must have black centers)
Performance chip (not too radical, it will still be a daily driver)
Stereo and speakers with sub (nice system with crisp-clean sound)

Hell, the 4WD Chevy/GMC half-tons sit at about the same height as the 2WD Dodges and Fords. Has the tuner car market influenced GM's truck design team lately or something?
I had a 5.3 2WD and I loved the ride height. If I'd have changed it, I'd have dropped it another inch. When I owned it I lived in a canyon and that low ride height makes those trucks handle MUCH better than their competitors.

I think it's the right choice. If you need more ride height, you are probably going to be buying a 4WD anyway...

NICE truck Hammer! I don't envy you for keeping it clean, but nothing looks nicer than a polished up black ride.

I have 2 kids to polish the truck if they want to ride in it.


Black does look good when it is clean, it's just hard to keep it that way.

That was not a gloss, it was a 2 year science project.

I like them. If I end up getting wheels on my truck...that's what I'm going with. Probably the black as well
