    Default looking at a 2001 2500 HD ext cab short bed!

    I took the truck for a day! It's a friend of mines and he is the only owner! This truck is a beast! I have to admit I'm in love!! LOL! It does not seem as bad on the gas as I expected. I know it's no prius but hell I need to know I'm not stuck when the snow get's deep!

    I've been told by a few other friends that this truck can pull a barn!! LOL! It's the 6 liter If I'm not mistaken. This thing seems to set pretty high is the stock set up pretty high or should I guess that it's been lifted??

    My truck in my signature is a 2005 2500HD with the 6.0, and yes to answer your question it is a beast! I had a 5.3 and it sucked compared to the 6.0, I know it seems not that much difference but trust me it is. They do sit higher than the 1500 series, mostly because of the frame and suspension and especially if it's 4 wheel drive. Mine is only 2wd but it still sits higher.
