Looks great Will. What kind of tires are you looking at?

Those tires are going to look awesome on there. You are going to feel a substancial drop in performance, but they are going to look tough.

Awesome on the tires. Are you getting new wheels?

I will be in the spring. My wife said if I wait until spring, she will pay for half in exchange for my stock wheels. She wants to put them on her Durango, which works for me since I wasn't 100% sure which ones I wanted. Right now I can put my money into the new JBA Y pipe coming out and the trinity tuner when they finish the programming for the 2012's.

Truck is looking good. I'm not too far from you. About 2 hours north of you.

As far as performance, I was anticipating a drop, but with all the mods I have done and have planned I figured it'd more than make up for the tires. The torque converter alone should make up for it in the decrease in parasitic drivetrain loss. Whats your thought on this?

I'm up there sometimes, I have a customer in Altoona that I do work for. I was up there a few weekends ago installing a new supercharger on his car.
