New truck guys and gals

I have been wanting to get a drw and I finally pull the trigger the other day and I love it, even the little old lady love it, lol. Since I bought it I put my old hard cover on that I had from my other truck.

Wow, nice puller. GM has been playing with GVWR - What does your truck have on the door post sticker for GVWR?

Thank you guys for your comments, this is my dream truck I have been wanting a dually for a long time I was either on the fence or I couldn't find a dually but when I finally made up my mind to get one I found one and bought it.

I can't wait, we took our new 5th wheel out a few month ago and the main a/c was making noise so I went up on the roof to find out why and there was a part that was broken, so now before the dealer can replace it they want to take a pic of it. I need to take it there going to long way of course so I can test it out, lol.

Good call. Nice truck! We took ONE trip with our first fifth wheel and a SRW and immediately bought a DRW. You can't beat that rear end stability on the highway.

Congrats, we just finished our first trip with our first fifth wheel. Our drw handled it like a champ. No more white knuckle rides.

Awesome guys and thank you we are excited, well even my wife liked it, we have our first tow this coming Tuesday we have to take our 5th wheel back to the dealer so they can order some parts for it, and you all know I just can't wait.

We just got back from our cross-country trip, from WA to NJ, from NJ to NC, and leaving NC after being there for a little over a week going to Las Vegas, NV and staying there for a week and leaving Vegas going to Caldwell, ID staying there for four days and going back home to WA.

I wish that I could have had the dually making that trip but then I was on the fence about getting a dually, I did last week hook our 5th wheel to the dually and it only dropped 1".

When I weight our 5th wheel it was 14,500lbs and the pin weight was 3200lbs thank you guys for your comments I think that I will have this truck for a long time.
