I was thinking that too! What a difference it makes all around. I went with a 1.5" this time because I wanted a subtle hint of rake for when I'm towing, and I didn't feel like messing with the rear block this time.

Sounds like a solid day of work, Patrick.

I put my bed cover from my old truck onto the new one today after work. Next up is Line-X and tint next week.

I definitely could've gotten better gas mileage doing it! We got between 5-7 mpg on a 7 hour drive. The boat weighs in at just under 11,000 lbs., so I figured I'd let my brother beat his truck up instead of me

that was a wise decision. At least you made it without going into fail safe. : roflol:
