That's so sexy, you're the new president of the Avalanche Crew Master Race.

But why didn't you start a new thread? Or use hashtags?

"Was" trying to consolidate all the new deliveries into one thread:

Congratulations!!!

Congrats. Makes me even more anxious to get ours. If the sun comes out, take some more pics, Digger. With the wheel well moldings looking black in your pics, I wonder how awesome Avalanche really looks. :)

Thanks for the updates and and maybe time to start new threads with any tips or tricks for those of us on the edge of our seat. Lol

Thanks everyone! I'm actually going to drive it and run some errands for my wife to finish up some last minute xmas shopping today so I'll try the locking diff in 2WD. Windows are being tinted on Tuesday and bed rug and tonneau cover is going on Wed. . I've got my MX graphics guy coming here tomorrow to make a set of the factory style hood graphics. I may even have him do some of my sponsors logos along the lower rocker panel but very subtle though. I'm ordering wheels & tires today and I'd love to stick some 37s on it but I'm not hacking anything to make it happen. Any ideas if 37's will fit on the new truck. It definitely appears to have more room up front even with my 12 on the mid perch. They definitely didn't fit on my 12 so I stuck with 35's.

First off congratulations on getting your truck!! I'm jealous!!

Second off PLEASE make sure it's clean toilet paper! :biggrin:

Your pictures make the color of the truck look the way I hope it looks in person. Do you think your pictures make the truck look like it does in person?

Which wheels and tires did you pick?

I'm going to be a sheep and slap 17x8.5 Method NV's in the factory rubber, they're already ordered. Been running the 18" Double Standards on my diesel for years and only managed to break one of them.

I'm 99% sure that I'm going with 18" Sota SSD wheels with 35X12.5 Nitto Trailer Grappler M/Ts. How much louder will they be over Terra Grapplers that I had on my Gen 1? I got almost 55k miles out of the Terra Grapplers too which I thought was amazing. Looking at different styles of bed covers right now does anyone know if the bed on the Gen 2 the same as a 16/17 F150?

The pics aren't showing it's true color. The only was I can describe it is that's a very light grey and in the sunlight that almost looks like the color of cement. It's very cool looking and I think that you're going to love it.

It seems like every picture I see makes the color look different. Your pictures made the color look like I'm hoping it will look.

Well I'm impatiently waiting to see it. : )
