Do you have the `19 with twin turbos and variable on-the-fly adjustable Fox shocks? 

 

Yeah, the shocks are pretty nice, that was one of the reasons I wanted a 2019.  Unfortunately they changed the color to orange.  The blue 2018's were prettier in my opinion.  I guess I'm just used to seeing blue Fox stuff, the orange threw me for a loop.  They eat up the little things but you can go around a curve and it doesn't feel nearly as sloppy as most lifted trucks with soft suspension would do.  There's even a jump mode, the shocks know that you are airborne and change so that you don't bottom out.  Pretty wild for a stock truck to have such things.

Klipsch should be kickin back a few $$$ for the advertising...  

 

Thanks, yeah I get that a lot.  I mean A LOT.  I didn't want to rock the boat too much though.  I was lucky just to be able to do it.

What I meant was that you can't just do whatever you want, it has to be approved, they could have easily shot it down.  I've had other ideas shot down.  I wanted other merchandise that had the certified heritage dealer logo on it and that was a big oh hell no.  ;)

Nice ride, great look and Klipsch should be kickin back a few $$$ for the advertising...  In all, it's waaaay cool!!!  Enjoy!  :)

 

=== kinda like when you buy a car and they have already plastered their dealer name on the trunk lid? And I ask - “what are my royalties for this free advertising”. Then get the deer in the headlights look as I ask for decal to be removed - gently.
