Just picked up an '09 Chevy 2500HD 6.6L. Had (and still have) a '99 Jeep Wrangler, but was thinking of getting a toy hauler to get to the track...Needless to say the jeep won't tow that.

Anyways, first full size truck and first diesel. and I HAVE BEEN LOVING IT FOR THE PAST WEEK!!! So much more room than the good ole jeeper.

Anyways, will be lurking for how-tos. Would like to add a train horn, power chip of some sort, and i am thinking airbags after reading some posts on towing.

Other current toys are a 2007 Speed Triple for the street and a 2001 Honda F4i for the track. Post up on www.vasportbike.com (http://www.vasportbike.com) often for rides, gathering, and trackdays for the bikes.

Welcome to the site, and beautiful truck.

thank ya. Line-x'd the bed and just got a rollbak cover to put on'r

Great looking rig, congrats and welcome. The LMM is a monster, 660lb/ft at 1600rpm is more than enough to keep me happy.

By the way, what a way to enter the full size market...most go with a Tundra or F150 w/5.4 or similar...like your style of going heavy duty:D

Question...the allison is sweet titties in my mouth...however, should it be utilized in all towing situations (engine braking)? My current track hauler is just an open trailer with 2 bikes on it, a genny, and some gear....the truck pulled as though it wasnt even there, but not sure if i needed it in trailering mode or not...
