Talking My New 06 3500 Mega Cab

I finaly got a common rail, just bought a 06 3500 mega cab 4x4 in grey its in TN and it will be here in two weeks. I picked up an exhaust for it already, a used mbrp cool duals for 100 bucks . The only thing it doesnt have is the sunroof but i can live with out it. Ive been borowing a little car for the last week since the other truck is down i cant wait to get it. im going to try to get the full center consol and has any one converted the rear window to electric.

Congrats! my neighbor has a Mega cab from that year, he pulls hotshot with it, but he learned how limited the turn radius is with it in a hurry, he pulls cars and the second week out he jack knifed the trailer into the cab!!!
Can you say two weeks in the shop to get fixed!!!!

One of the hazards to having a small bed!!!

Sweet find! I think the Mega Cab is awesome. I just wish GM would make some sort of "mega cab" setup..


Anyhow, good luck with the new rig. What other BOMBS do you have planned for it besides the exhaust?

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

this truck will probably only get a tag along for now my older dually has the goose neck hitch.
guages and a intake to start, then a smarty! i plan on getting wicked with this truck so eventualy (as funds alow) dual cp3's and twin turbos. the trans will be upgraded before that along with the head and so on.

Hey Rob let me know when you get the truck and all the new parts. We'll install them in the Cave if you want. It's easier on the lift.
Very nice looking truck.
