Something that seats seven without them being right behind your head. Respect the VAN! Wish it were a diesel.

My guess was that 1/2 ton gaser would be #1. Lets see how this ends up...

Here's 3/4 duramax

'05 Yukon XL--- Has done a nice job pulling the boat up and down the hills from SoCal to the river, so far. About 4 trips a year. The 5.3 liter engine has plenty of power and gets about 16 mpg...usually packed to the gills and with 5 or 6 people heading to the water.

kind of an older picture, but here's my 2007 Dodge Megacab 3/4 ton 5.9 diesel. have lots of goodies, but nothing to tow right now. programmer, exhause, intake, monster stereo with nav and back up camera, dvd, drop down steps, pre-runner bar with lights, soltonic springs (or whatever they are called), load leveling air bags, train horn (but a couple trumpets recently broke), on board compressor in the tool box, and I now have fender flares that are not on it in this picture.

Yep, I have to agree. The thing with our Yukon is that the wife likes it on all the time. She likes the look. She does NOT like door dings, road rash, and the like.

So the car/truck is 5 years old and still looks pretty good.

No dings. No scrapes. Just the way Wifey likes it. ;)

Here's mine. 94 Chevy dually, owned it since it was new. Not the best year for a 454 gas motor, but put a complete Banks exhaust/intake system on it which helped a bunch. To cheap to buy another truck for how much I use it.

Alright, I'm just gonna say I like new wheels and tires. Maybe some guys like spending money on different things, I love when my tires are brand new.

Here's some pics of my 07 F-250 with 40k miles. It's had 5 sets of wheels (including the stock wheels), and I've already purchased a new set that I haven't mounted yet, lol. That will make 6 sets.
First pic is with ProComp wheels.
Then Welds.
Then Eagles.
Then Rockstars.
Next will be KMC's.
