Re: Maiden voyage
i actually gave it a little more gas than i originally thought i would. the truck felt good, eventhough i only drove around the block a few times. once i get the truck reg and some other small things done ill really drive somewhere.(hopefully)

Re: Maiden voyage
Congratulations! I know that feeling, your listening for any and every odd noise, scrutinizing everything you feel in the truck, makes you feel like your having an aneurism.

Re: Maiden voyage
Great feeling, did the same thing this morning except I just drove it on the trailer to go to the exhaust shop.......blew a power steering hose cause we had not tightened the clamp........you did better than I did. Kieth

Re: Maiden voyage
funny you ask about the axhaust because i had to cut the pipe off on the passenger side before the muffler. the welds that were holding the pipe up in that side broke off before i drove it. so one side has a straight pipe and the other has a cheap turbo muffler with a turn down . but ill be putting some short 12 in glasspacks soon, with some nice bellflower tips to go behind the wheels along the bed. cant wait, maybe headers sometime in the future too.
