Thank You, Gentlemen! Hadn't given it much thought 'till now but, you are right! It is rather camo'd there, isn't it?

Michelle, those are known as icicles. We have had a good crop of those this year. Tomorrow, we are suppose to get 5 to 8 inches of snow. When will it ever stop?!?! It's beginning to look like the time is coming this spring that I will shovel snow in the morning and that same day, I'll cut grass in the afternoon!

Had the opportunity to hook up to that white 16 foot cargo trailer in the background to haul some furniture earlier today. It didn't even work that truck! Just for the grins-n-giggles, I brought the 20 by-pass around the south side of Elkhart back to the house on the north side of Goshen. I delivered the furniture just off Nappanee St on the west side of Elkhart. So, I thought what the heck. We'll see what it feels like to pull this trailer at 70 mph with this truck compared to the old '05 Silverado. The old Silverado was a good truck but, this new one does have the horsepower!! Can't wait to get him hooked up to the 5th wheel!

Icicles?! In southern California we call those Christmas decorations. Nice job since I can't even see the wiring for when you light them up. What hitch ya gonna use and will it be slideable?

Good looking truck, even though it is a GM (LOL). At least you will get a chance to try out the 4x4 being in Indiana the way this year is going.

Art, the old 16K Reese is going back in for now and, it is a slider. Later, when we finally step up to the plate for a new 5er, we'll have the option of pinning in a new 20K if we need to.

MrRobinGrimes, it does have heated and cooled seats. Also, leather wrapped wood trim heated steering wheel!! That really feels nice on these cold snowing days. Especially when, I can hit the remote start from inside the house and go out several minutes later with those seats already warm!! AH YES, life is good!

mlh, if this new GMC turns out to be as good as the old Silverado, I will be real happy! Have my fingers crossed that we don't have issues with any of the electronic gizmos and gadgets on this thing.

JandC, with the way it is snowing right now with the wettest, heaviest snow I've seen in years, chances are good the 4 wheel drive will come in handy today if I have to go anywhere.

You must be getting what we got back home last night. Super heavy slush and about 6" worth! The hits just keep on coming back there.
