    Best used diesel?

    Seems like there are two types of owners; the ones that are blacked and lifted, with monster energy stickers abound OR grandpa's who are 80 years old driving them bone stock. The other I saw a beauty 2007 2500 SLT Crew, the thing looked brand new. Dropped my card on his window. Has 50k on it...

    Best used diesel?

    Hey guys Looking to sell my 14' Ecoboost Crew and get into a diesel. It just isn't an efficient towing vehicle and sucks empty too. Towing a 6000# trailer I'm getting around 30 L per 100. Wouldn't mind going back to an older Chev, an LBZ if I can find one. Not particularly picky but has to be...

    Best MPG in a truck / Ecoboost sucks.

    Wow - I would be pretty happy to get 12-13 L per 100, empty on the highway. I am around 15 usually. When the travel trailer is hooked up (a fairly light one, at 6000 lbs) - its easy - 25 L per 100. Going through any sort of elavation is closer to 30. I have the Leer old man-opy, and stock...

    Best MPG in a truck / Ecoboost sucks.

    I've been driving a 14' Ecoboost Crew Cab (157" WB) for the past three years and while I like how it drives, and the interior space - this thing sucks as a daily driver. Even on the highway, I struggle to crack 15 L per 100km. Combined I am over 16. I drive it like a grandmother. While I don't...

    Toyo CT VS Duratracs

    I didn't want to buy two sets of tires. 1 - to replace the garbage Goodyear SRA's that came on my truck. 2 - a dedicated winter tire and another set of wheels. Duratracs seemed like a good option. My Nokian's on my last truck kicked ass, but these are alright. Good in the deep snow, but not...

    2015 3500 Denali Duramax

    Christ, 80,000? ; is that all? I guess it does have black wheels and nice tires lol. Corvette stingray with almost 20k left over. Just saying. New truck prices are out of this friggin world imo.

    High milage ecoboost

    Mine is still pretty new (33k), but I haven't had any problems with it. Still holds 6th gear towing on most hills, but it sure burns a lot of fuel doing it. Should be called Eco OR Boost though.

    Summer Rims and Tires

    I went to Fountain. They were quite a bit cheaper than everyone else by several hundred in my case. Free rotations and flat repairs for the life of the tire too. I priced the muteki's too and they were less than a hundred bucks cheaper.

    All Weather Tires

    https://www.snowandmud.com/tow-vehicles-rv-s-trailers-and-accessories-for-them/93340-winter-rated-seasons.html I ended up going with Duratracs, and they have been great this winter. Quieter on bare roads than I expected. Nice looking tire too.

    Hot Tubs

    What kind of price range are you guys seeing for something decent? Every ad or website says 'call for pricing'. Thinking a good one is around the 7-9k mark no?
