Proace4, nice truck man lol. Who would have thought these little trucks could pull something too. How do you like the bags? I was looking at getting some, what brand did you go with?

Pullin my Hot Rod.

umm.. i like them a lot, when i'm pulling the car. with the 305/50/20 toyo's on the rear the bags were a neccessity in order to not sit right on the tires. I cant remember the brand... sorry i'll have to look! When not pulling anything it does make my trucks *** kinda loosy goosy. but taller tires and bags ftl on that one i think.

Your truck looks good pulling that DSM! I would've never thought my truck would do that great pulling more than its rated for but it does so and suprisingly well. it still averaged like 14-15 mpg at 65 mph. Granted its kansas and its flat but i just took my time and let the exhuast groan and moan all the way to the drag strip! lol if and when i passed a car... they just stared, lol, 1. it was loud as hell 2. i like to think it looked cool. 3. usually they were older people going slow on the interstate! lol

I cant wait to quit putting money in the camaro and finish the t56/6.0 swap for this truck. gonna make the tow rig a blast! and easier on it hopefully!
