New (to me) LBZ

[brs954]

Well...

I took the plunge and got rid of my '06 GMC Sierra 1500 :cryin:

BUT...

I traded it for an '06 Chevy 2500 D-Max (LBZ)!!! :hurray: The truck has 24000 miles and it is an LT2.

Anything in particular you guys think I should know that is going to be different from my '05 GMC LLY that I have?

Thanks,
Bryan

For starters, 1 more gear and more stock horsepower and torque. Mucho better stock air filter as well. Otherwise pretty much the same. I had an '05 Chev LLY before the GMC.

It will run cooler, and breath a little better.

Congrats on the new truck, i bet you dont even feel bad about the trade either do yah? What do you do for a living, sell freezers to Eskimo's?

I was having my doubts about trading before I picked the truck up. But after I drove the LBZ more... I have to say I have a permanent on my face!!!

Actually the way it feels today, and from what I hear for the next couple days, I live in the freezer being sold to Eskimos.

You've got you a good truck. Lots of power and it should get pretty good fuel mileage if you can keep your foot out of it.

You know that is a problem I have been having with the truck, the fuel mileage 12-14 is the best I have gotten so far... BUT I know why that is...

Man I love this truck!

I just want say congratulations and don't depend on the DIC for accurate mpg. Do your own calculations, there was a big difference when I did.
