Default Picked up a new Daily/Tow rig

Well since both the SS and fourth gen are paid off and not really big enough to easily get my 1 year old in and out of I decided it was time to step up to something a little larger. I picked up a 2006 2500HD crew cab, short bed 2wd Duramax on Monday. Bone stock other than cat & muffler delete and surprisingly enough its still ridiculously quiet! Only had it for a week but I absolutely love it, I wish I would have bought one a long time ago! The nerf bars will be ripped off this weekend for sure, I can't stand them and at 6'5" I really dont need them, haha. I'll be keeping my eye out on CL and ebay for some factory tow mirrors because the half ton style mirrors just dont look right on there IMO. Also already have HIDs for lows and fogs on the way and debating whether I'm going to drop the rear to level it out or raise the front. Being 2wd and a highway only truck I'm leaning more towards shackles in the rear. Here's some pics!
