  1. I'm right there with you.
  2. Oh yeah you'll be looking right soon enough!
  3. A 19.2 mpg lifetime is great for hilly TN. I'm rocking about 13.5 mpg lifetime but I do about 95% city. I too have been impressed with how accurate the DIC is in the new trucks.
  4. What's your lifetime? The 25 mile range is worthless in my opinion. On mine with the 6.2L, lift and 35's I can get it to say 22mpg but I know that's not what I'm getting in reality.
  5. Here's a picture of my 2012 GT500 before I sold her. It had the factory SVT Performance Package, Recaro seats, smaller pulley, JLT 127mm carbon fiber intake, axel backs and tune. Dyno'd at 526rwhp and 518rwtq.
  6. I don't see what your complaining about here. Your MPG even on the highway isn't going to be over 20 mpg because of the hilly terrain in TN. Personally if I was getting almost 19 mpg on the highway in your area I'd be estatic.
  7. Yeah there is and the guys that can do it are charging $400-500 lol
  8. Just have to find a box that fits.
  9. Shame your having problems with the lift. Your trucks set up looks awesome.
  10. Just search the forum and google. You will find TONS of threads and information about doing this. Basically what holds true for 2007.5-2013's will work for the K2XX.
  11. It's essentially truck inception!
  12. Once you have inflated your tires, added a payload or a trailer you can do a chalk test. You simply take a piece of chalk and draw a straight line across the tread. Then drive forward so the tires make a full rotation and you can see if your whole tire made contact or not with the ground. Then if it didn't make contact you can look at and tell if its over or under inflated.
  13. This just sounds like a personal problem. Do you drive with both feet or something? Or place more than just the ball of your foot on the pedal?
  14. Just send BFG an email and they will tell you where you need to be. Then from there you can see how she rides and do the chalk test if you like. But what everyone has said is correct E rated = about 40 PSI give or take a couple.
  15. I went from the stock 275/55/20 SR-A tires to 35/13.5R20 Toyo RT and haven't noticed a difference. There's an in tial change in feel in your butt but after a couple hundred miles that goes away.
  16. This damn tungsten metallic looks great but color matching it for bed liner is a pain in the ass since it changes colors a little. Thanks for the insight on your experience with raptor. I'm going try and get some samples sprayed this week.
  17. Haha. So if you use the binders than it can distort the color? Or do you not use them because of the binding agents in the bed liner spray?
  18. Wow that's awesome! Sorry for all the questions. How was the color matching process?
  19. How much did the Raptor cost if you don't mind me asking? My local Line-X would do it for 3k if I pay cash and help with some prep. Like removing the door handles, trim, grille, etc.
  20. The Line-X xterra looks killer! Once I fix my hail damage my plan is color match Line-X my who truck as well. Need to work with my local guys on getting the color down though. My fender flares came out darker.
  21. On my 2012 AWD Denali I replaced the stock shocks with Bilstein 5100's and it rode great. But that was also on a well built suspension kit from CST.
  22. Those look great! They caught my eye a couple months back but couldn't find pictures of them mounted on any K2XX. I may have to buy a set sometime soon.
  23. I can vouch for every word he said. The R/T's are phenomenal all around. You keep them spinning and they keep gripping and slinging mud. These will outperform Terra grapplers any day of the week.
  24. The ride is excellent with the coilovers and rear leafs. The rear leafs are a little stiff after first but now after a 1,000 miles they have settled and it feels like a factory ride. What I love about this kit is how everything feels like factory. There isn't any clunking noises, the steering isn't loose and the suspension isn't stiff. You'll be very happy once it's installed.
