Should make towing far more enjoyable. Congratulations on your new acquisition.

Thank you I was always in the category of my truck can pull my camper but... The wife finally agreed as she didn't like me being stressed on the ride. I had been towing my 28' bhs and our newest 28'dhbs with a 1/2 ton Silverado. Now I can't wait to hitch up and go!

I know the feeling, but I only lasted one summer in a half ton.

Congrats! I have one that looks a lot like that! And I LOVE IT! Can't wait to get out there every time we go. I was in your shoes too with a 1/2T that was technically capable, but not real fun to tow with; did it for about 1.5 years before I bit the bullet and got a 3/4T. Best move I ever made.

Not a truck pic, but some of our trucks have been born at the Flint Assembly Plant.

'05 Grand Cherokee 4.7l driven by one crazy Aussie mix and his henchmen riding shotgun.  Towing a 06 Baja 10z in to the CO mountains with no issue but a supercharger would help in the thin air above 9000ft!

I really like the new front end on the Chevy's SO much better than your old year model. It looks really nice. Congratulations.

I agree....., that's one advantage in waiting 14 years between model year TV purchase's!

New truck
[I]A couple of weeks ago Peggy and I picked up our new 2016 Ford F-250 6.7L diesel Super Duty, Extended cab, Long Bed. We replaced the F-250 gasser we had. I'm already seeing better fuel mileage. We haven't pulled the camper yet. But that will change within the next few weeks.
