After six years of Gen 2 truck ownership I bought a new '04 3rd Gen in April of 2004. Now after ten and a half years of owning that 3rd Gen and TERRORIZING the 3rd Gen section since 2007, I sold it yesterday.


Y'all are gonna have to put up with me over here as I am now the proud papa of a 2014 CTD 4x4.


Got it home after dark last night, have to work late restoring a '63 Corvette tonight, so it may be a few days before I get pics up.


I was however already shopping for a level kit and noticed Top Gun Custumz shows their kit on a truck identical to mine except the cab lights (which I'll add at some point since I put them n my 3rd Gen 1500) and obviously the level kit. Even the tires on the truck pictured are the ones mine came with so this pic will do until I get a chance to take some:

 

"Y'all are gonna have to put up with me"

Bring it on!!!!

Congrats!, at least you didn't get the little diesel. From what I'm reading, they got lots of first year pains.

 

Congratz on your purchase. Truck in the photo looks very nice indeed! Is that mineral grey I think its called?

 

Yeah, something like that or cystal gray.

Was able to get a couple pics taken, just looking at the difference, I really wanna get a level kit ordered soon...

 

Sharp truck! A leveling kit will look awesome on there me thinks!

My 4th gen is the same color haha, love it

 

Yeah, immediate plans are for a set of Dominator nerfs so I can get in the damn thing, then a level.
Down the road I gotta get my winch on the thing but I'm thinking winch bumper instead of a grill guard w/winch mount like I did on my 3rd Gen. But for new bumpers it'll be a while, I gotta recoup the bank account some after the truck purchase...

 

Oh and BONUS! You get to make trips to the dealer sometimes now..YES!!

 

Yeah, I'm expecting the occasional emissions CEL, seems inevitable. Including the the ex's rides I've purchased fourteen NEW vhicles off a dealer lot. This marks the first one I ever bought an extended warranty for - 120 months, 120,000 mile bumper to bumper. Which means short of nerfs, a level in the front and something to mount the winch on, this one will be STOCK for a LONG TIME...

 

Nice rig, didn't think you'ld ever let old red go..

 

Thanks. Tough decision, but it was probably my last chance at getting over $15k for a close to 11 year old, half ton gasser.
