    New tow rig!

    The F150 was starting to show some signs of age and we really wanted the extra doors, so we've kept our eyes open for a deal on a quad cab. An 07 Ram 2500 with only a couple thousand miles just happened into our driveway! :grin:

    Thus far I've only towed with it once to put the boat away for the season, but it seemed to do pretty darn well! Absolutely no issues with a full-on load of wood in the bed coming back, either!! Quite the nice xmas present to ourselves.

      Holy cow, an R/T!? I can't even fathom how that thing pulls! One thing that kind of surprised me was how throaty the stock exhaust sounds. I'm sure your R/T is absolutely ferocious!!

        It's not an R/T my friend. I just liked the look of those decals I had custom made. I took the stock exhaust off and replaced it with a custom made Dynamax catback. Between the after market air intake, the catback, and the SuperChips tuner, it's a beast. I can smoke those HUGE 325/50/20's from a stand still with NO problemo. Yellow_Flash_Colorz:

        However, my real SRT8 sounded real ferocious. :twisted:

        Regards!!

                  It's the Duramax...I love it. Although I do like the Rams as well.

                        Wake_Fun - nice GMC. Got this in Oct and LOVE IT. No pics with the boat but I'm sure our white 211 will look good behind it.

                          Good looking trucks guys, I just put 285's under mine so it looks a lot better than the stock tires. Tool box and nerf bars as well.
