Yep, different strokes for different folks.



I don't even know why we are talking about you getting a diesel. Your going to change your mind(set-up) in about three weeks anyway

Little late in the game to change now, the motor and trans is sold, and most of the extra crap off the truck is spoken for too. Hell I may just end up rocking a stock truck with a catback, tune and efans from here on out

Throwing parts at a Dmax is to easy.Bottom line is he sound of a LSx at 6K is like music you can only get from gas.

Ya we are luckey for sure. 2 people died, and over 40 were seriously injured. The brakes on the 70 kinda suck, but the steering is ok as long as there is no wind. Can get hairy at the top end with a cross wind.
