Suburbs suck, I can get anywhere from 10-20 mpg depending on what I'm doing. Also I would like to see your 5.0 pull 11,000 lbs and a 6.4 get 20 MPGs on the highway so yeah it does get such good mpgs.

I know these aren't the best but I just had the ATZ mounted.





I can't wait for the Fox shocks to go back on cause I looked at the CV boots and they are rubbing when they are fully extended with the 2.5" level.

I painted the webbing in the grill to match the truck paint but I forgot about the rest of the grill so I had to plasti dip the rest of the grill. It turned out great.

Thanks and what did you have planned for your truck? The fox shocks are night and day over the stock shocks. I have to do some fiddling with my preload settings and it sucks doing it cause of the 600lb spring.

Nice, I like what you've done so far. I think Lariat might be my next truck, but in Green Gem with the tow tone paint option.

Thanks, I've haven't noticed the green too much but I'm sure it's better the the basic white I got. I figured a truck twice as much as a basic truck would have a better paint but I was wrong. I would have went with a ruby red or the Tri coat white.

not sure what i am planning for now. For the longest time i was thinking about doing the suspension like you did to get better on and offroad performance, but im in need of new tires so that comes first. I really want to fit 35's with aftermarket rims so it will probably cost to do that. All in all, seriously considering just getting the same size tires, letting the truck stay how it is and trade up to a raptor in a year or so.
