Hey everybody,

I just picked up an 05 Quad Cab with little over 50K on the odo last week and so far I am having a ball with it. I'm looking forward to hanging out here and soaking up a lot of the good info on this site!

So far I've only taken a couple of pics of the truck since I picked it up. Once I start changing things a bit, I'll start taking a whole lot more.

I would take a picture like that, but since my unit just moved to Ohare airport,
my rig is the only one that's red. All of the other rigs are bright green. When I get to the firehouse tomorrow, I'll snap a few pics of the rigs.

Looks good brutha. First purchase should be a rear flip kit to level her out.

Now that's a DRILL!

hahaha, yup. i was actually in ur neck of the woods last Thanksgiving. I drilled a new const. house, beach front on the lake and drilled 3 holes at 500 feetdeep through solid rock. the last hole took me 4.5 hours to reach depth. she is not short on power. in normal conditions, ie sand, gravel, clay. i can dill 150' in 18 min. that is my personal best record:rock:

Here's a pic of my beast:

 

[Geodriller]

damn that thing is big. what does it weigh??? my rig is pretty compact, but the pump, rods, and tools weigh it down pretty good. its close to 50,000lbs. but last year i was helping at harvest and pulled a load into the elevator at 111,000 lbs. and engine brake or not, that takes a minute to slow.. would have been one hell of a fine, if i got caught, that is. i was hauling soybeans.

 

[Fireman512]

My rig is about 55,000 lbs., 44ft long, 12ft high. It's a straight axle w/ about 8ft of rear overhang, so driving it in the city can be very interesting.

 

[Geodriller]

damn that thing is big. .

I stand by my previous statement. that thing is BIG. my rig is only like 34 feet long or somethin. 44 would be fun in the city
