Sweet rig Rob. I do like the 2016 truck, much improved over the old '13.

What size wheels, 22"? Bolt on? How are they at 75mph freeway? Any issues with balance or braking? And what size lift can you get away with just to fit the tires?

no issues , 7 inch full throttle lift on 37 x13.5 toyos on 22 inch American forces ... tortion keys almost on lowest setting , rides a little more stiff . than my 15 with pro comp 6 inch on 35,s .. only has 1000 miles so I'm guessing will soften up a bit .. quite honestly rides and drives awsom .no wobbles ect . if quality stuff .and set up right no problem . my 18 year old just dropped off my top gun said it pulled and acted perfect . I haven't pulled anyhing with it yet . as for tire size . I had a 15 denali srw on 37 s . and 22 s and needed 7 inch bds lift to clear . thanks and nice truck .

Well I had my first CEL, it was the DEF heater system. Dealer fixed it. Have 24,000 miles on the truck and still love it. It really is a luxury item, I could get by with an older cheaper truck but why... 62 years old spend it like a drunken sailor....

That requires some trips to the 8 Mile Ballet (strip clubs, for non-Detroiters), Mad Dog 20/20, and a heapin' helpin' of penicillin. I call shotgun!
