It was with his '02... His '01 had a problem with the crankcase filling with Diesel.

And the Mega Cab turns just fine, same wheelbase as a regular Quad Cab long bed...

Fred......look outside.

The duramax on it's roof sliding sideways down the street at 50 mph.....is yours.

The red thing dragging it, and repainting it "soot black".....is mine


(and yea...so what...I'm a new guy....how could I resist)

And due to the Mega Cab, the only friend I have that is a D-Max fan has ordered a Mega Cab in white!! We were towing together and I was getting 14.5 while when he tows similar weight he gets 11

I would have thought a guy reading the posts without posting is a lurker
and a guy that posts something inflamitory to see what kind of a response he would get is a troll. or trolling, much like fishing, throw something out there and drag it around to see who bites....

I sure wouldn't talk about turning radius.. Thats a target just too low to hit..The GM's have had the worst turning radius of any truck on the market for about 15 years. Ever since IFS they need a 3 point turn to make a right out of the parking lot.

I can turn my truck around in the middle of the street, my biz partners 02 DM needs a couple tries... He calls his "Grader" steering.. and if you have ever operated a grader, you know what he means...

just going on some info i picked up at a porker game the other night, says other than the turning radius all is great

i have drove a long box crewcab ford and will confess that it takes a lot longer radius to turn than the shortbox max, like way more

Can I come out of the "undisclosed location" now? I seem to have misplaced my "undisclosed location toothbrush" and my "undisclosed location razor"

Actually they are not lost, just hidden in an "undisclosed location" that even I apparently don't know about

Well maybe I was confused... Again...

Maybe I need to do this when I am more awake... Or drink even more coffee.

Thanks for the correction.
