Hey Spartan, thanks! Just put on some bushwacker wheel fenders so looks even better now but yes you guys at Spartan once again did a great job on the tuning!!! I loved the tunes on my 2008 F-250 and I love the tunes on my new 2011 even better...great throttle response, tranny shifting, everything...and with the dpf delete and straight pipe it sounds INSANE! :) Thanks again for making the best tunes!

Hey man great looking setup. I was pretty shocked when I started going through what you did as it's word for word what I have planned. How do you like the Fabtech kit and how bad did it affect driveability. If it's anything worse ride wise I may change my mind, keeping in mind I do alot of highway driving. So if it's annoyingly loud/resonates, shakes/shimmy with the lift and tire combo. Anything you could tell me about your setup I'd appreciate. It'd help me out before I drop the cash on these goodies.

I plan on running smaller wheels so I know the extra sidewall will affect things differently but as long as I have something similar to compare.

Damn dude, that looks pretty awesome. Like both the lift of the car and the chrome. It looks pretty ******, like something monsterous on the street.

Hey BGGSTIN...Well 1st of all its hard to compare to the truck stock...I mean the truck stock rides incredible for a truck as you know...As for my setup the best way I can explain is this...Rides awesome suspension wise, it has a in my opinion a better feel then stock suspension BUT the choice of a mud-terrain tire takes away from the "smooth" ride and "comfort" of the stock trucks ride...So I assume if you went with an all terrain tire it would be fine but a MT tire def. makes the truck ride firmer/rougher then stock...Doesnt phase me in the least bit, I love how it rides but I can see it not being for everyone...Its not loud so dont worry about noise at all, doesnt shake/shimmy...Just can say that MT tires make it ride rougher then stock...Harder to explain then if you rode in truck you would see what I mean :) My good friend has a new Infinity SUV and he had my truck for 3 days and didnt have 1 complaint about the ride if that tells you anything :)
