A Simple beautiful truck. Are you running a lift or just level? What size wheels/tires, did you need to do any trimming?

 

Thanks

Jeff

Sorry about the delay Jeff! 6" Rancho Suspension. 18x9" LRG 102 wheels with 0 offset and 5" backspacing. Nitto Trail Grappler M/T 35x12.50r18. No trimming required, but I did by preference.

Here's an update from a few weeks ago. Doing a little scouting for my upcoming deer hunt!

I love the way your truck sits, what size tires do you have? Also is it just leveled or more?

You guys keep posting these pictures of the new trucks. Going to cause problems with my wife because it makes me want to go to the dealership and get one for myself.

 

I actually came up with a plan I think may work, put a lot of thought into it.

I think I can pull it off by renting a garage space to keep the new truck parked. That way everything will appear normal and I don't ever have to bring it home to my garage, so she would never see it.

 

I will not trade because that would be an obvious giveaway so I have to keep both my 08 & 10. Instead of paying for it, (she would definitely notice that money gone from checking account) I can get a loan and make monthly payments.

When I want to drive the new truck, I can just drive to where it's stored and switch vehicles and then do the same before I come home.

Since all of my vehicles are paid for, I can drop to lower insurance coverage on my vehicles and not change hers.

Dropping coverage levels and adding full coverage for a new financed vehicle would only raise the cost $35.00 from where it is now. Since I handle the insurance bill, she would not see that either.

 

I really think I may be able to pull this off! Have to talk to her first and see how she feels about another truck, the above is my back up plan.

Seems like a lot of work just to get a new truck. If yours are all paid off, why not just trade one in and call it good. Plus I think your marriage might last longer if you don't keep this from her.

I must agree, keeping a brand new truck from your wife seems like a bit more trouble than it's worth. Also, seems like a big thing to have to hide. She might wonder what else you might be hiding if she ever found out you hid a truck from her.

    • Get the 5.3. I`m not a Ford guy.😉   I think these L84`s are less problematic than the L83`s. Certainly less than the L87.
    • I have finally paid off my mortgage and can now purchase a new truck. I would greatly appreciate any opinions on the purchase of a new 2026 GMC Denali 5.3L or 6.2L with the Denali reserve package. I am not interested in the 3.0L.  Or should I go buy a Ford?   Thank, John
    • One of the few things I enjoyed about my time in the midwest was taking off on weekend drives. Unlike home, where we are boxed in by mountains and water, those rules don't apply to the inland plains. Roads connect and sprawl everywhere. While Minnesota is flat, it's not completely featureless and there are fast moving rural roads with curves and slight elevation changes. I used to relish heading out in a particular direction with no set destination, no curfew, and weaving through little townships, wherever the roads would take me. Along farms, lakes, or through the deciduous trees... It was beautiful in its own way, and the seasons were so distinct there. Fall drives yielded amazing shows of color and contrast. Summer drives rewarded with the and amber evening glow of the prairie (and lots of juicy bugs).    I do a lot of that here in my home state too. But it's much less mysterious/intriguing. I've traveled most roads in the region, and every road that's fun to drive within a good radius of my house. But every drive, even on the same old roads, is still enjoyable. I know where I can lean hard into the throttle or really throw the car into a curve. There are exercise loops for when I just need to keep certain cars limber, and much longer routes to settle in and enjoy a drive and put some miles on. All the mountains and water make for some really awesome roads for spirited driving. But not all my driving is spirited, for example, that's not really enjoyable in my pickup or this Blazer (that's still here...).   Sometimes a good drive is followed by a ritualistic wash before tucking the car away...
    • 'GMAuthority' is reporting the 2027 HD's will have the L8S 6.6L gasoline V-8.  There was some talk here about the L8S awhile back.  Not sure what changes it will have now as it seems the 2027 emissions regulations have changed from what was originally proposed.  The big question will be is L8S just a stopgap for the last 2 years of the current T1 HD platform or will it carry forward to the next generation 2029 T1-2 HD's?    I assume the L8S will still be a Gen. V engine. 
    • New engines will still be using DEF. You just won't have the limp modes occurring when you run out of DEF now.
