As an aside, part of me really wants a "deuce and a half."

Yes, I need that, never know when living in the country means you need to rip a tree out of the ground, or tear an old barn down.

I also own a GMC Sierra 2500HD with a Duramax Diesel and Allison tranny..

Some of us have property and other tasks than just our jobs, and a pick up truck is just another tool. **Some** Porsche drivers are jerks too, don't stereotype pick up truck drivers unless you are open to having the tables turned.

That said, the pick up drivers with 4X4s that have big rims and low profile mud grips are the problem children. A low profile offered tire makes no sense to me, those guys are usually the posers of the crowd :-)

How do you like the Sierra and why did you choose it over a other comparable models of other marks

Some of my scariest encounters were various dilapidated 40 year old p/u trucks driven by AARP men, tailgating me on the interstate north of Atlanta, heading to flat6innovations! :eek:

There's a street in town where every Friday & Saturday night the kids cruise, race, and roll coal with their trucks. I told my daughter if I ever caught her hanging out with them she'd be in trouble. Four years later she's married to one of those guys. I didn't think much of him, 'till one day he had to replace some leaking seals on his transmission.
He had driven three hours to visit my daughter and had to fix it before he drove back. His lifted truck was too tall to fit in my garage, so in rainy 40 degree weather he dropped his transmission, pulled and replaced the seals working under a tarp and was on his way back home that evening. Hard working, determined, and not much of a complainer. I'll grant that he can roll coal and sling a little mud from time to time.

Because they were hauling North Georgia's finest in the back and didn't want to get busted..
