So I got pulled the truck out of storage this past weekend..... Oh how I missed it :D

I changed all the fluids, we had awesome weather this past weekend up in NY

I also messed with a few things on the truck.

First, I installed my LED plate lights..

A word to future buyers of these VLEDS plate lights.... You have to reverse the metal conductors (little prongs) or the lights will not work. PITA but they are bright as ****!

I also received my Pillar Pod for my Bully Dog tuner (Thank you Moe's Performance aka Matt)... Cannot wait to install this thing!

That's a great looking rig! I think the front bumper is my favorite part. I'd love to have a matching front and rear bumper like that. I have the single bar tow hook set up, so I'll need to do some research on that.

Once again, great looking rig!

Thank you, Yeah it has a tough look up front. that's what I love about the 2500's

Nice truck man!!

Right before winter I spent a lot of money on custom paint work and I didn't want the harsh winter and rock chips all over it again... the truck was not even a year old and the front looked like swiss cheese from all the rock chips.

And I was thinking about selling it and getting a 2013 1500 sport, so I was trying to keep the miles off it.. Since I pulled it out of storage I decided that I was not going to sell it lol.. I love it too much and have put way to much into it.

This is the reason I didn't buy the sport model and wanted the big horn. I saw that chrome bumper and thought to myself "no rock chips!"
