Road trip in the 450!

Lol some people just don't get it. Justin has a 50" light bar to out across the top of the windshield when we get back... Wish we had it to flash people that cut you off.

I'm really digging this truck though. These platinums are tough to beat.

You needed some laughs. By now even sirus is playing the same stuff over and over.

Someone is having way to much fun in an expensive truck. Then again I have fun driving my buddies 6.4 too so I can't really say all that much. Going from 7.3 to 6.4 is a definite upgrade in power.

You would know better than I do. Lol

But yes! This truck is great. It's not a powerhouse by any means, but it's fine for a tow rig! I told Justin when he gets bored of it, I may have to buy it from him

Side note to everything else but what iPhone app is that that shows the speed you're going?

I've never towed anything with one but from what I've read everyone says they pull great. hopefully with some of the upgrades on the 15s we"ll be able to get a little more power outta them.

Dude. Lol

And no, it's just one trailer. The dyno is a gooseneck.

That's a long sob

They didn't.

We estimate the dyno in at 24 ish... Trailer the dyno is on was shipped at 10.936, dyno is around 9500, then they sheeted the bottom of the trailer with steel, built the rest of the deck up, storage, and the generator and compressor

Oh, and we're picking up some big ass disc in Illinois on the way home. Should be fun.
