Added a set of the digitally measured, custom fit Weathertech floor mats-front & rear. Really sweet fit and look good too.

Loved ours in old 2004 truck. Great for mud and snow. Luckily, new (to us) truck came with them, too!

Do they have the EGR cooler on the 2015 models? Didn't they improve it from prior years?

Don't know a ton about the 6.7 but hopefully they have a better egr system. The egr system was the death of many 6.0s, I got rid of mine before I had any issues.;)

Well, the Cooper Discoverer S/T Maxx that came on our used 2013 GMC were too aggressive for the dually, and started feathering and creating a very bad vibration at highway speeds. We traded the tires in at Discount Tire for Michelin LTX M/S 2s, the OEM tire for our truck. (Spare matches again!)

MUCH improved ride!

Jamie, they were cool to look at, I'll admit. I had two professional opinions before we decided to give them up. The guys at 2 shops said that the nature of the tread on these tires on a dually would mean they'd always be fighting each other. You could keep rotating them, but they would always be rough. . Figured time to sell them when we could still get some $$ for them

I'm not sure I understand fighting each other. Can you explain?

I'm not sure I do, either, but I can tell you they were creating a vibration that was slowly getting worse.

Thanks. I like the cooper tires and I was looking at those as a replacement when mine wear out as well as the Nitto tires. I like the agressive look.

I was running these road howling, mud slinging tires on my last truck. Man they were noisy, but they looked good.

I lowered my Reese Signature series hitch down one bolt hole, about 2 inches. It was all the way up from my Toy hauler, and i still only had about 5" to 6". Now with the landmark and the TrailAir I have a lot more 8" to 10" maybe. Also to see if I can get the Level-up to work right and return to truck height.

Yes, they look good. But they will also raise the height of the truck, our 5ver was a little nose high even on the lowest setting of the hitch, and the truck was level. I bet the 5ver is back to level, now.
