My new boosted DD

slow2.0 · 12-02-2009

well seeing how GM had 0% APR on new 2009 cars and trucks. I have always wanted a duramax so I went and got a newone and well the payments actually ended up being like 40 bucks more a month then getting a loan on a 20,000 dollar truck. But anyway I got a brand new 2009 black crew cab 2500HD chevy lmm duramax. Its got the tow package/camper package, so it has trailer brakes in it from the factory with the nice towing mirrors, cloth interior, with the bench seat, 17inch rims with 265s instead of 245s, and well I LOVE the truck!!! I will try and get somemore pics up of the truck soon.

Nice looking truck! Duramaxs for life!

Nice Truck!

If you need a programmer or a power puck let me know, my brother gets pretty good discounts at his work (cost) and could probably cut you a good deal. It not only would add power obviously but more than likely get you a significant mileage gain as well.

I would love to get a programmer, and an exhaust cause well its just to damn quite. But then if I put a programmer on it with an exhaust I will void my warrenty I think. Im really not sure. Gotta do somemore reading up on it. Thanks for the offer though.

And thanks everyone else for the complements!

Great DD. If I had the cash I would be in the same boat!

**Halon** · 12-03-2009

Nice truck!

Neither will void the warrenty. Henry's dad has a programmer on his and it doesn't void it and diesels don't use cats (I think) so you wouldnt be messing with an emissions device.

But he also got it from the dealership too didnt he?(the programmer) and yes there is a cat in it, well technecally a doc(diesel oxygen catalyst), and DPF which is a diesel particulate filter. They really stepped up the emmission shit with diesels in 09.

You can get the programmer called the duramizer and I know for sure that does not void your warranty! Basically its just on a dial and you turn it up when you want more power.

**goodhart** · 12-03-2009

Programmer won't void your warranty as long as you turn it back to stock settings before you take it in. My Dad's 03 Ram completely stock with a programmer runs 15 flat in the 1/4 on extreme with the predator.

Programmers WILL voil your warranty because the new ECU takes count how many times the ECU has been accessed and a programmer will change this number. I would of gone with a gas truck and a supercharger over the diesel but it is a nice looking ride. Also the new diesels are terrible for emissions and alot of power can be had if that stuff if removed.

Really???? My 04 3500 dually can pull a 44 foot camper trailer fairly easily. Just set cruise at 80 and relax. Mine is a 8.1 V8 and takes regular gas. Thing will pull anything. I doubt the 6.6 liter diesel version will pull any better.

My buddy has a 6.0 gmc with a 6 inch lift and 22's thats supercharged. That thing will pull anything like nothing was behind it! The truck also runs low 14's in the 1/4 mile. The truck pulls his full enclosed race car trailer with the car, tools, etc with out any problems!

I had a 6.0 supercharged with almost 500hp and over 500 tq. that thing went high 13's and pulled a full steel car trailer with cars on it with no problem and never went out of overdrive. I would say don't say a supercharged gas is less then a diesel unless you have driven one with a load on it.

Love the new truck and keep us posted on the mods you do to it!

This I have also heard and really it really pisses me off. Cause I would love to have a nice sounding exhaust on it with a edge programmer to get better fuel milage. So I gotta talk to some of the dirtymax vendors and see if I can get around it some how.

Only if the mechanic looking at it gives enough of a shit to even look for that, it's not like it's coming out of their pocket...
