bought my '06 Victory Red LBZ CC new, ordered it with the right options, bought at invoice -incentives at the time, now at 11,4xx miles, 9 pmts left :)

not my first new truck or first DMax but unless it gets wrecked or stolen I will never buy another new truck!

a new daily driver econo-car maybe but none of these 50K emission laden trucks.

I meant to say 2011 not 2001.
the frame and tranny is beefier, and they have upped the tow ratings, but my 2006 with a chip still had more grunt. Keep the 06!

2004 Crewcab long boxLB7 i know its different but its at 170k, still daily driver in the winter and its pulls 10-14k 3-6times a month....love the truck and now working on new diesel i wouldnt get on. To many emissions and bull**** that kill the mpg and power. You would be shocked knowning

I was planning on keeping my 06. 130k miles and only opened the hood to put new batteries in twice.

But, if they build this truck I might change my mind:drink:

yeah I would hold on or trade for newer used. I have a felling GM going to rededsign soon or they should. Their current design isnt bad but its four years old and needs a little something. But they will probably repower soon due to fords new engine.

And you dont need a dually it would be overkill for that boat. 2500 is perfect. thats what i use on my 29 fever
