Glad my wife wanted a truck. I couldn't swing this as a wife car.

Looks excellent, you're lucky she has a good taste in vehicles.

Congrats. That is a really nice looking car.
Should be a great daily driver, especially after the mods!

Watch it past the 550rwhp mark.

My boy did the tune/down pipes etc. ended up hurting the motor.

Put it back to stock...dealer voided his warranty.

Not sure what the limitations are but just an FYI.

Thanks. Ya I'm def gonna just do a safe tune and cold air. You start pushing fuel system past the 550rwhp point. Honestly 500 rwhp with 3800lbs is plenty enough. Gonna wait to 1500 miles before any mods.

Amazing looking car. Only thing that bothers me is the inlay color of the seat. Why did they do that? All black or a grey would have looked sick.

You can do all black, all gray or, black with Saffron (Yellowish Gold). The all black seats looked so boring as the whole interior becomes a sea of no color. She wanted Gold calipers and figured the Saffron would compliment it and white/black goes with pretty much everything. Totally understand though as color is very subjective.
