THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT 
Fast does not even begin to describe this beast. Driving it back from Huntington Beach was an adventure in itself. |

Blower setup for this is nearly 8K I am getting ready for the basics, I need a lowering kit, Intake, Exhaust, ECU tuner, and a few other things. I have figured out what basic parts I want. I am just waiting for a little extra cash... I figure one part per payday and It's a good start. |

How does it do in the snow, and how much can you tow with it?

Fast as hell, plenty of power, really low miles (15K) you are correct on the 2006 part. they only made them for 3 years, 04,05and 06. The 06 year is the only year I wanted, and the Regular Cab was also a requirement. Real men drive can drive a manual transmission... and the manual is only available in the regular cab. All regular cabs are a 6SP manual from a viper (slightly modified) and the Quad cabs are all 4SP Auto's from the Cummins diesel version. I'm afraid to drive it in the snow, and since I have a AWD car, this will never intentionally see snow. I've already begun started buying upgrades. The ECU performance tuner is on the way, and the new subwoofer to replace the crappy stock one is coming too. I just need to lower it a little bit too, It needs to be getnlwr. |

Let me know how much you like it when gas hits $5/gallon....
I sold my GTO when gas was $4/gallon last (2008). I dearly miss it but don't miss the monthly gas bill. |

Sadly dollar for dollar it's cheaper than shooting While at the track with DoberDude yesterday, I was looking at a sticker on the back of a drag car that said "there is more to life than gas mileage" and I have to agree to some point. Who cares if it gets 12MPG, it's a FUN 12MPG. I didnt buy this to get mileage. I bought it to have FUN! Heck i'd fill it up when gas is 10.00 per gallon. It's worth it. |
