Wow...nice truck. Congrats.

Can't beat the 5.9/G36 6-Speed setup...

I've got a '07 3500SRW with the 5.9 and G36... I LOVE that truck.

Cool...I wan't interested in the truck though...just the wife who would buy you a truck. :D But since you are going beyond the call of duty for everyone in the country, we'll let you keep her. :p

Best wishes to you and all the other soldiers serving in the forces...and especially to those in the battle zones!

thanks for all you do....by your signon name I am assuming you are Armor. What unit you with?

Nice truck..you can't hardly beat the 5.9 2wd for fuel millage, even with the high price of desiel they are still cheaper to operate than most gas burners.

Yeah I'm a tanker, But I havn't been on a tank since Iraq in 2006. Been doin most of my work on foot or 1151, Just picked up a new MRAP last night. I'll try to get pics today. The new truck(to me) is 4WD. Fuel is going to stink with it but, I need it since she bought me a toybox before I left.

Nice looking 3rd Gen your wife got you!

Can't go wrong with the 5.9. The CR's are too quiet for my likings but def are still a good engine. Before you know it you will be sinking money into it just like a quad:devil:

Engine isn't even broke in yet either, your MPG will just keep increasing while still breakin' her in:D

Thats badass! We had the mrap for a minute tell we had to send it off to another platoon! To tell you the truth i'd stick w/ the 1151!

Being a gunner I don't trust a lot of drivers in the military in the mrap as tall/top heavy as it! We've been airborne in the mrap all ready and been riding on 2 wheels 2 times!

When I'm riding on the top the mrap w/ my 50 cal that high up w/ that badass bumper I feel like ****ing god racing through town! If only i had a dollar for every vehical we demolished in one of those!

mrap practically indescructable though and they load em' to the hilt!
