Every time you guys pull into the station and leave those Cummins running I look for ear plugs, my Duramax is so much nicer, and I have the 4" exhaust, better mileage, yours tows 0 to 60 a touch faster but mine passes at 60 faster towing. Who zoomes to 60 while towing with these diesel prices? I agree, solid axels Rule, offroad, mine's for a smooth ride and puller on road. If i've chained the rear and I still have a problem, takes less time to pull out the winch cable than chain up the front anyway.
Sure, the Dmax is quiet...but is it worth having an IFS? Maybe thats okay if you never take it off road, or in the snow. My old 12 Valve is loud as hell....til I close the door
