Getting back to the headers, ive heard some different things about LPP which raises some concern, bad fitment and shitty customer service. wtf guess ill just go with the pace setters.

I was curious about mileage too. I've debated on getting a 2010-2011 RCLB 2WD 6.0 gasser and lightly modding it, but keeping mostly stock, the one thing that worries me is gas mileage, I drive quite a bit to and from work and really would only need the 2500 HD as a backup tow rig as my wife has the diesel.

Keep us updated.
