When it is used it is not uncommon for it to be driven 300 to 500 miles in a day. It seems to have more power with...

    M1009 Front Windshield Defroster

    Install a block heater so the engine is somewhat pre-warmed. It does not make the heater work better, but decreases the warm up time and makes for easier starts in the cold.

    diamondback LOVE my diamondback on my 2500hd silverado. I have the 2 atv side load option. The funny part is "How many people ask how did you get those up there?" It is great to watch their faces when my wife and kids are with me and I say "We just each grab a wheel and seti it up there!" :-P

    Am I crazy (engine/body swap question)
