Got my vin # yesterday, they said it's waiting to be loaded on a rail car:woott:. That actually didn't take long, I ordered it Black Friday.
I'm sorry to hear that it's being shipped by railroad :roflmao:
I work for BNSF and they don't prioritize vehicle trains very well.
The 2 piece GM rear mat actually joins together pretty nicely. Other than the seam there, it has not separated.
So I hear haha, hopefully it's here within another three weeks. I might find one at a dealership before then . Although it doesn't seem that the blue High Country's are out this way yet.
Lol norfolk southern here, i agree haha nothing moves fast by train except intermodal

I know we use to move stuff fast but the last 3 or 4 years especially its all about fuel conservation and less about on time performance and velocity. We use to run all of our intermodal trains at 70mph and now with some of their stupid rules they have out now we have a hard making 55mph. With that said I had a smoking trip down to Kansas City today. about 3 hours and 45 minutes running time from ft madison iowa to kansas city Kansas. But then again that was on our "flag ship" (train going to Northbay California facility) train if you will.
Nice, yea the fuel conservation thing is a joke. We can hardly run track speed. And pulling hills engineers have actually said it has used more fuel. Who knows. Its a bunch of craziness. They got us writing out signal logs too. I guess just gotta do what they say so i still have a job haha

Picked it up yesterday... glad I waited for the L5P.
Kinda sad that I can't really get on it in Minnesota... the roads are awful. Any time I go near the skinny pedal with traction control off it was spinning.
Throttle response down low is silly awesome, honestly feels like a gas truck a little bit under 30mph where all the other Duramaxs I've owned feel a bit laggy. Have yet to have a dead pedal feeling. It's ready to go all the time though, nice confident feeling. Can't wait to tow one of our Bobcat T770's with it. :thumb:
Only has 100 miles on it so far but I really like it. The color is awesome too.

Beautiful truck man
Thank you, not used to it like driving a car lmao
It's my new work truck. Going to tint it for sure and do some colormatching. Trying to leave it alone its no nice and quiet :rofl:
I already had my transfer tank and toolbox colormatched to it so going to pop that in for sure too.
lol I never knew how good this color looked, never paid attention I guess
Nice Corny, I really like that color. I'm going to go drive 1 this week and see what the hype is all about. If this engine pans out, I'll go get an 18 this August...
I see the dealer near me has two Alaskan model 17 Duramax's. They have a big decal of a bear on the box. sharp looking trucks but both were WT models that was kind of disappointing.
