toss a few hundred pounds of sand bags in the box will smooth out the ride, and might help you out of a soft spot ;)

my company issued 2012 gmc 2500hd 6.0 4l90 3.73 xcab was $31k 2wd, $37k for the 4wd w/ winch n brush guard..

but they bought 617 of them :hm:

Duh! See, I don't think in metric or Celsius ! :lol:

I guess GM won't be going out of the truck business anytime soon ;)

Wow! My 2016 2500 with the 6.0 was only $38K new according to the paper I found in the glove box. But it's single cab. I didn't know they made a crew cab "work truck." My truck rode rough too, but I let the tires down from 75 to 60 since it's still mostly empty (just a canopy).

yep, our buck sucks...
trucks were actually $53K, then destination and the other crapola they throw on ya brought them up to $55 799.
pretty basic, only power is the winda's. 4x4, vinyl seats and floor, tilt column and tow/haul. also has some kind of info-tainment screen system, still lurning, never had any kind of screen in any of my vehicles. boss did spring for a/c in them which is nice-they blow bloody cold.
goes in this weekend for Line-x and new racks.
most of our current fleet is like yours Killer Bee, with a few older '05-'06's in the mix. prob about 3/4 of the current fleet has 400 000 km or more (approx 250 000 miles) we also have an old '05 f350 diesel crew 4x4 with 600 000kms (approx 370 000 miles)

Only thing mine has is power door locks, which I wish it didn't. The windows are hand crank but it does have AC.

There's a little bitty screen that displays time and temperature, plus radio and hvac when you change something. I dunno if anything else; I can barely figure out how to change AM/FM on the radio :rolleyes:

Mostly all of that stuff is useless to me unless I wear my reading glasses which of course not when driving. I have to figure out which button does what and then remember when I'm driving. The gauges I can just tell what is going on.

Yes sir I understand that one. There’s a few days a week I do similar mileage. The oil fields I work in are pretty spread out, it’s 200+ miles from our northern wells to our southern wells. Enjoy them while they are new, I always feel kinda guilty getting the new ones muddy for the first time.

1976gmc20- yep we do our part to keep mother GM afloat!

Frankie Avalon starred in that one.

Didn't Barris build that car? I'm 99% sure it was.

But I don't think I'd be driving it around in the rain with no top.

I have the model kit for it somewhere around here in my junk.

Can't forget these two among many others. And no. I didn't take this shot. I wish that I did.
