Default Learned Something New ABOUT MY TRUCK TODAY

Hey yall

Went to Les Schwabs today to get some new wheels installed on the vehicle only to discover that it is not a 6 lug but a 7 lug.. they are telling e that this is rare and that no whee manufacturer makes a 7 lug wheel and they have to special order a wheel for it from fuel wheels.

Two questioms:

Difference between the 6lug and &lug besides the obvious?

Wheels that are availble that dont cost an arm and a leg?

So I take it you dont do your own maintenance? LOL, How long have you owned the truck before figuring out it was a 7 lug HD?

Summers22, I have never needed to do any of my own maintence to the truck since I have owned it knock on wood. I do my own oil changes and stuff like that but I haven't yet had the pleasure to discover how many lugs I have.
