Otherwise a similar year 1500 2WD is what I'd say.

Thanks. That's what I traded in on the 14. 06 2500 130k mi that was a corporate truck. Ran good but yeah mileage was 13 loaded. Wish I still had it. 2wd weighed the same as my 4wd 14 so not bad.

we swapped my sons 94 rcsb lq4/4l80e was not to bad a LOT of room under the hood for turbo's but his thinking of letting it go his 6'4" and just to tight for him on the inside im 5'11" and i touch tight for me on the inside of it, im more comfortable in my 04 rcsb that i DD

i have no input on the 08-13 trucks im just not a big fan of them

best looking front clip IMO
has all the creature comforts you need and nothing you don’t
the dashes don’t crack like the nnbs
the seats are more comfortable than the nnbs IMO

80e swap, big single turbo, upgraded fuel system, built rear axle or 14bolt s/f swap

This. 100%. The 800 RCSB is a cult truck... i cant explain it but im glad I own one.

Btw I think he meant 06 and 07 classic the 03 05 is the same but can swap the 06/07c hood and grill on them, it’s bolt on no modding I just done it to my 04

i also think it’s the nicest front end on the gmt800’s
