JL - forget wheel covers, I forgot we have this tire dressing, sort of like armor all, but 10x better at UV protection, we put it on our trailer tires twice a year, and on our truck bed covers...works amazing...I'll try and get you the name if your interested
No covers to deal with, to get wet/dirty/blow away
But here's my morning, went to the dealership, picked up my truck, drove straight to the trailer dealership, and tah-dah!

Congrats on the truck and trailer, when I read you were going to pull that kinda weight with a shorty, half-ton v-6, I puckered a little. Good looking setup! My trailer purchase, warranted a new heavier truck, as our closest track is a good hr. and a half away. I did the Half-ton truck thing, didn't work out all that great, and was really hard on the truck. Cummins 3500 all the way! Congrats again!

Also, the entire underside is coated, no rust here!
Now I just need to make my 2500 sound a little more like a 2500....hurm...ideas?
this weekend I'm installing the 110v outlets and lights I bought, and start on a bench, shelves etc

on my 6.0, i just replaced the muffler witha dynomax ultra flow. the exhaust on those trucks runs dual in and single out of the factory muffler. the ultraflow is a dual in/dual out muffler, but has an x crossover or whatever inside. i cut the factory muffler off, and welded that one in with turndowns welded on the exit. gave it a pretty good tone. wasnt too loud. had a nice idle, but when ya laid into it, it really woke up. a friend of mine got the 3 inch muffler and used adapters and did the same thing and it sounded mean. its also a very cheap alternative to a whole new exhaust system and sounds just as good, if not better than most of the cat backs out there

you bet. theres really cheap alternatives to all kinds of stuff with those trucks if ya think it out. i added 4 inches of lift to mine for just under 600 and at the same time increased payload bigtime and it also made the truck drive like the load wasnt even there. let me know if ya have any questions on it, ive been there done it with the same truck
