    Man this truck is f*#$ing blue.

    This thing is like a big sugar free red bull can. LOL. I went to get a white one but nah. I still love white. Heck I love all the colors. This color works for me.

    2011 DC Off-Road picked up today. I got a little better deal than I thought I would. So, that's always nice. And it's god damn blue.

    No options really just wanted OR and tow.

    I'm leaving it stock. (Except maybe a shell/bedrug down the line and the better half wants steps (ugh))

    I have never owned a vehicle with the computer controls (VSC) or the button mashing 4WD. But after reading about it for a while, it seems pretty slick and capable enough for my intended use.

    Photo is attached. Peace, love and blue skies to all.

    You made the right call. SWB trucks are known for ruining people's shit left and right.

    yeah, no lifts or wild stuff (been there lol)

    I can confirm another 2011 3 leaf (and same with another on the lot). I have the TSB and will see if mine bumps with a few hundred pounds of crap in the back.

    Damn thing rides like a luxury car now. Gonna have to drink coffee to stay awake while driving. :)
