GM is offering only $1500 in rebates but they expect another $500 once they start hitting the lots, which would have been nice.

This thing ought to tow just about anything I put behind it. I tow boats quite a bit and a lot of chemical trailers and flatbeds with equipment. Now I can do it in comfort! I got rid of my f250 and have missed it ever since..


congrats on the new truck.. I agree on the moon roof.. I do love the sliding rear window though...especially when my daughters or my son and friends are back there and I let one loose..I lock the windows so they are inoperable and have full control on the rear window...only after they say what I want them too..

Yep. "Smoke" an engine and see how fast the "Tuners" come to your rescue.

Sounds bad ass.

Let me know if supplier pricing would help you out.

truer words have not been spoken! Had an 08 Dmax towed outta here this morning with a scattered turbo (about $3600) TCM shows max torque recorded 871 FT/LBS which is just about 200 more than stock. Rep said no go. i do not recall Banks sending me a check to fix the mans truck??

I looked at a 2011 Dually today at a GM lot and was surprised to see GM using Michelin LTX's on their trucks from the factory! Finally using quality tires OEM!

In the press photos they are touting the 20's that look like they just stole them out of the Ford parts bin yet everything on the lot had the old style 17/18's. The dually I saw today had the LTX's mounted on those terrible star pattern plastic hubcab looking 17's!
