    Hey 06Burb, were you able to find the correct Ranch Hand for your 'Burb, or did you modify one from a 1500? I've had a heck of a time finding one for my wife's '05 2500 and am ready to just modify one, but I'm not sure what is involved.

    Pickin It Up On Tuesday!

    Yep, they're great rigs. Bought the wife a 2500 'Burb with the 6.0 last year and I've grown quite fond of it.

    Nice finds on the 8.1s, gents. I didn't see a single one when looking for a 2500 'Burb. Bought the 2005 with 6.0 and low mileage and it's working pretty darned well with the horse trailers.

    What are the tune options for the 5.4?

    265/75-16. They will rub a bit in the right conditions but that may be a function of the aftermarket wheel offset. I'd actually prefer the stock aluminum wheels on it.

    Falken Wildpeak AT/3W - anyone running them? Opinions?

    I ran the Discoverer AT3 prior to the Wildpeak AT3w, though the Coopers were a slightly larger size. I was not a big fan of the AT3; I found it to be somewhat noisy and slightly squirrely on hardpack dirt/gravel roads. I find the Wildpeaks to be better in every regard.

    This one will remain pretty stock as it's the Wife's daily driver/horse towing machine/kid hauler. 2005 K2500 LT with 6.0.

    Thoughts/Input on GM engines appreciated

    You've just got to look long and hard to find the right one. I recently had luck looking through local/regional paper classifieds. Seems like a lot of folks just look at Craigslist, Facebook, and other online resources and forget about the old-school stuff. Well, the older folks still sell...

    @rayra I forgot to mention that the mileage to hours on this one calculate at 56 mph which I was happy about. Sounds like a good deal on the Equinox; that will definitely ease the fuel bill!

    Picked up a new wagon/tow rig for the wife yesterday. I was looking for something newer but this gem popped up locally and we didn't waste any time snatching it up. I don't like payments or big depreciation hits so this makes me happy. 2005 Chevy Suburban 2500 4X4 with the 6.0 Vortec. 2 owners...

    Tire size recommendation for 2WD Duallie E350 RV

    If you're doing the lift I would go with the 235/85-16. That should give you plenty of options in tires. I've become a big fan of the Falken Wildpeak AT3w and it's made in that size. I also think the Dynapro ATM would be a good choice, though I found they tended to ball up in deeper mud and...

    6.0 Trustworthyness

    If you aren't extremely familiar with the 6.0, have it inspected by a knowledgeable/experienced shop prior to purchase. Not just a diesel shop but one familiar with the 6.0. It can be a great engine or an expensive one and usually that can be somewhat identified prior to purchase. A good shop...

    The Broken Horseshoe Lodge (99 F350 with a Skamper)

    How the heck did I not know about Alpacka Raft? Those are pretty cool and they are less than an hour away. I may have to go check them out if they allow drop-ins.

    Falken Wildpeak AT/3W - anyone running them? Opinions?

    I've been running the 285/70-17 on my F-350 diesel for a few thousand miles. My experience with traction and performance mirror that of the others who have chimed in. I'll add that they do a great job towing. I've towed my 27' Camper, 3 horse trailer, and flatbed loaded with hay on multiple...
