36 would be amazing. 26 in the silverado is nice so far. Only had to get gas 1x since I bought it.

The Sequoia had a 24 gallon tank and it was enough most of the time. This 36 gallon tank is a bit overkill especially for my 12mi round trip commute, but since I'm working from home....

Yep went 340 miles in 40 days. I still could have done another 150+milea without much worry.

The Ram I drove for my last job had something like a 45 gallon tank on a 6.4 Hemi. It was always fun filling that thing up.

Avalanche has a 31 or 36. I bet they bolt in.

Sometimes it feels a little under dampened and I like how Bilsteins ride in general.

I like the bilstein on mine. Then again it had the factory shocks. Not sure if original or newer, but the bilstein improved the ride big time on mine. Completely different trucks though.

Interesting. I drove my stock ones to 175k and they saw some pretty rugged mine roads. Can’t say I had that problem.

You've only driven the truck 340 miles in the past 6 weeks, I think you need more seat time before you spend $2k on a stuff you may not even need.

This. I can't leave well enough alone lol

Also the front Bilstein 5100 have adjustable spring perches so I can bring the front up some.

My truck is the long wheel base super crew, so the exhaust is too short. The adapter is an extension to make it fit properly.

Oh, so the whole borla kit with the extension?

Do you not like the sound of your exhaust now?

I don't not like it, I'd just like a little more volume. I don't want it loud and annoying which is why I'm looking at the Borla touring which is one of most quiet exhausts available.

I thought the stock one was already pretty throaty. Im not sure the Borla ones sound much better to me, but its your truck and $$$$.
