PawPaw, I was told the leather in the Platinum was cured on the thighs of a virgin.

Loving the EB so far...driving my son in law's truck with one made me like it. Love the low end torque to get these heavy truck's moving. The 5.0 in my '11 was more of a mid range to high rpm engine which is more suited for a Mustang! The 3.31 is rated about 400 lbs less then the 3.55's for towing and if I decide to go taller with the tires later it won't be much more then the stocker's...enjoying the ride stock for awhile!

Would that be the new truck smell? Hard to find a virgin nowadays probably!
