Not many of these got made before they shut down for the bk. This truck is an absolute blast to drive, I will definitely believe the rags that did 0-60 in under 6 seconds. Dline pointed me to Moe's Performance, and I ordered a lowering kit this morning.

Thanks guys!

I absolutely love this truck. Friday me and my buddy Kenny are taking off in it on Friday for the Power Tour, it should be a blast! I've only had it since Tuesday, and I already put over 1k on it....of course 850 was the dive home from the dealer in Nebraska:D

I have a friend who is really into photography, so this truck is getting whored the heck out :) I think the bottom pic kenny might have taken after he detailed it at his work, but the other pics were up in Romeo, Michigan. Matt actually got some cool rolling shots too, but they were literally directly after the 850 mile road trip....just a few bugs on the grill.

YEAH! Matt said you talked to him. He's been shooting a ton lately, and his pics are really good. And he's pretty much the easiest dude in the world to work with. He was actually saying he thought it would be cool to get our trucks together, because you've got a black one right?

For real dude, that would be sweet. Those wheels are dope as hell.

I'm thinking about getting my wheels painted black.....I was sure I would if I got the black truck, but I'm not positive with the white. I talked to a guy at motown who said he's painted the chrome clad before, but I haven't heard back from him yet.

IM so damn jealous, ive only seen one at the dealership and was only able to drive it about a mile on the access road of I35, they make some smooth power and the shifting definitely feels better than say a Crew Cab or Quad cab. Glad to finally get to see one dropped!!!!!!!!! They do feel a little too tall IMO for a street truck. Welcome and SWEEEEET truck.

I kind of like sitting up that tall when I'm driving, and I love the ride quality, but it just looks too tall right now.

The acceleration is ridiculously smooth, the truck just goes and the needle keeps moving!

Tint today, but it doesn't look like the lowering kit is going to get here in time to drop it before the power tour.

Yeah, a couple of my buddies are trying to talk me into taking the badges off. I think they look fine right now. But if/when I go with black wheels and/or bdw decals on the side, they'll be gone for sure.

looks AWESOME, ever think about a lower profile tire to get it a little lower also, more street look. Did you do the install or a shop?

A buddy and I did it. I may go a little more low pro in the future, but not crazy thin....I'd really like to go with srt-10 wheels too, but I've got too many other projects right now.

Yeah, not many made it out. It'll be interesting to see how many get built now that St. Louis is going back to work. They're closing their doors in September, and I believe they are only running '09s until then, possibly only trucks that have already been ordered.
