Sadly, I sold my 1500 because my trailer was just too heavy for it. 7.2 mpg and constantly being in 5th gear wasn't cutting it. And now I bought a 2010 2500 Mega Cab Laramie Cummins truck! I would say I got a good deal. After looking at several 07.5-08 trucks, I got this one for the 3rd gen price range. It's leveled, Bilstein shocks, deleted and tuned with EFI live by a local wiz who also did trans tuning. Totally loaded other than DVD. Pretty happy with it so far, but those mall crawler offset wheels have got to go, or do some flares so it doesn't ruin the paint (which is in great shape). Shouldn't be any issue pulling the trailer now!

Congrats on upgrading to a CTD!

I think the wheels look great. Flares would be the way to go, IMHO.

It's a great truck, my 6th Cummins rig and first 6.7. The only thing that bothers me about flares is what they do to the paint underneath.
