all these manly men talking about how they use their trucks for truck things.
I can load a lawn mower, I tow a boat, I never wash it because it's a work truck

and here I am, almost always CLEAN and barely open the tailgate.
but
I did transport my milwaukee packout tool box to the detail on Sunday.

does your truck have the typical GM tar dipped frame ?

what counts as underneath ?

plans for the paint ? if going with the TW, then i would use an iron remover first ( if you dont clay ).

 

[Yaj Yak]

it's weird, parts have tar on them and others don't "feel" like they do (or it doesn't come off as easily)

underneath, like, underneath.

paint- likely wash it quick tonight and then throw some shit wax on it for the next week or two til i can ironx/clay/do something serious

i know [MENTION=73]tinfoilhat[/MENTION]'s talking shit about the oem intake/tune package (while he's shopping stow and go minivans) but i like the idea of a warranty on this.

i figure a decent intake would cost ~300 bucks.

another $200 for a tune that keeps the warranty?

not that crazy i feel for OEM.

13k in towing in new truck is plenty.

old truck wasn't picked out because 3500 it was picked because >6ft bed crew cab with leather seats.

gm wasn't doing 6 and a half foot bed 1500s back den.

 

[EmersonHart13]

No payload concerns? Or is the overlander, roof top tent thing not happening with this one?

What is the payload on the door tag for these since the optioned up stuff is never the advertised limits


edit: you answered my first ? in your edit

 

[EmersonHart13]

Stop trying to extend that cock extender is all I am saying.

no payload concerns. sold the the tent long ago.

the door tag matches the advertised limits. 17800 gcwr 7300 gvwr curb weight 5606

 

[Yaj Yak]

if i ever have a payload concern, i'll slap an ARB something on it, throw a tacoma or jeep emblem on the back and BOOOM no more payload concerns since payload ratings mean dick to jeep and tacoma guys.

Gotcha. So 1,694#, sounds right for trim/options. I thought advertised for crew cab 1500s was "1950-2140#"
