I've had the truck for right at a year now, and I have been modding it pretty frequently since the first week... So I guess it's finally time to start a build thread..
Somehow I found a Z71 Duramax CCSB at my local preferred dealership. At the time, I had been leaning towards the CCLB, but after test driving it, I decided the short bed wasn't a deal breaker. (A year later, I've only had a couple instances where I wished I had a longer bed, so overall, I'm glad I went with the short bed.)
She had 16 miles on her before I went for a test drive. A short drive later, I was in love.
