How do you like the duramax? How many miles does it have if you don't mind me asking
I got this one last month full loaded from an old man that parked it in his garage. Super clean for the year. I picked it up for 18 with 160k for miles. Fully loaded I'm about 8-9k for weight, pulled it up Donner summit at 65 with no problem. The damn transmission in these truck are bad ass!! Shit pulled my trailer thru some good mud (fun muddin with a trailer behind u, little scary on the side of a mountain) plenty of power

Ya I wanted a new 2500 dodge but didn't want to spend 45k. I like it without the camper shell too, but it's more handy for what I need it for with a camper shell. Not really goin for looks but usable. Nice to put the dogs back there and tools on road trips. Camper Locks up nice and is good security

My F350 doesn't see mud and rarely sees dirt roads. I MIGHT level it out just for looks but my 84 CJ7 sees it all...

Large mud tires will get louder as they wear out. The howling is the noise of the air being trapped under the tread as the tire is rolling.

Nice to know thanks for the info I'll be buying some 35/12.5/17 tires real soon Was thinking of going with the toyo all terrain II but the mud terrain looks much better and I'm sure it gives it the more beefier look, Kinda stuck now lol
