the only way to beat the system is to go with a 3/4 ton, i may sell my truck just to build a monster, but i will be going with a duramax regular cab long box though

my swap is all done except i am waiting for my "XLT" lettering to come in tomorrow from the decal shop for the gear shifter spot on the console. it sure does look slick though with the dash ptm

custom XLT lettering in the old gear shifter location

just some various pics, waiting on my headlight switch panel to come back from paint, also waiting for my green leds to come in so my XLT will glow green at night too. if i keep it, black leather is next.
