Got a New Truck Today

[kb67mopar]

I also am not a fan of white but these are good trucks. Not sure I believe the post about not being able to load up the truck without squatting (then again mine has leaf springs not coils). I put my buddies 2200 lb car hauler plus a 4 door coronet on there and it leveled the truck perfectly....no squat just level. Now 2000 lbs in the bed might bring it down another inch but a ton of gravel back there didn't really make it squat much either.

That being said, next one I buy will be a diesel anyway...better fuel economy and can tow a big rig out of a snow bank.

Uhh...kb67mopar, You do realize a ton of gravel IS 2,000lbs, right? :eusa_think:

Thanks Guys,
I went looking for a silver as usual but I liked the white.
Living back on dirt roads white and silver show few scratches and less maintnance
Man does it fly for a big truck
I recomend to anybody
No real use for a diesel for me
I don't really tow much or haul alot
Only must here in Michigan farm country is 4X4

I did the same thing you did but I came home with a GMC. Congrats on the new truck...

What I meant was a ton in the bed would probably drop it another inch with the trailer but I have had a ton of gravel back there with little squat. Sorry I typed that sentence wierd

Just thought I'd post this. This is what my truck looks like with a 4000lb jeep on my 1500 lbs trailer. No appreciable squat. But like I said, I don't have the coil spring suspension, I have leafs.
