    Thanks Chris, LOL brother that's great advise :) The dealer had the interior door panel shipped and installed in 02 days. Picked the truck up Thursday, and Friday we had the first family road trip from South FL. to Valdosta GA. The truck did very well. here's a family photo taken at the Mellow Mushroom Pizza.

    Thanks Gents. The tint on driver, and pass front windows is 18%. The rears I had them put on a 75% to give it a little more sun protection. and the strip is 18%.

    I will be taking it in for an alignment. My steering wheel is set off to the right by at least 3/8. She runs straight, steering wheel and red stripe is off. There is a little wheel vibration, gonna ask dealer to road force balance as well.

    Gas mileage for this trip: Normal mode using cruise control at 75mph I got up to 18.2mpg at 80mph I was getting 16.5 to 16.9.

    GO ATLANTA!!!!

    Thanks for the update!!!! I'm glad double limo is legal in my state :)
    Another quick question, and Gdog don't crucify me!!!!!, the mpg is very acceptable what octane of fuel where you running and was it 10% ethanol?

    I'm getting 14 on the highway, 91 Oct and no ethanol when I fill up in town. But I'm doing 85 mph and unfortunately lots of wind here at 6000'.

    I hear ya Vikes, thanks for the update. My 13' eco with a good tail wind did 20.5 with the 3.55 rear end gear, swap that to a nasty head wind and 16-17 mpg. Always ran 91 octane w/ 10% ethanol

    When we left FL to GA not sure what dealer filled truck with, slight head wind. I was running 87octaine, when we came back from GA. the pump showed 10% ethanol, no head wind. That was at or below sea level.

    What a shocker of a super bowl, OMG!

    16.5-16.9 mpg Is very respectable @ 80 mph with 87 octane/10 percent ethanol. Most of you probably aren't concerned with real life fuel mileage but my Rappy is going to spend 95% of her life as a highway queen and the rest tearing up the lease roads out here at the rig!!!!
