Initial impressions of daily driving this thing after 3 days:
1) Again holy torque. Getting on 95/64 with a short merge lane is no issue. At least when the truck is unloaded it is easy. We will see about when a trailer is loaded
2) Yup, this is a big truck. I feel like I'm sitting higher than any vehicle on the road unless it is a box truck or bigger. I'm always concerned of staying in my lane as I'm still getting used to the truck. I can see far ahead of me which is nice.
3) Tow mirrors are wonderful. I love the small bottom mirrors pointing towards the side of the truck and down. They are 100% useful for passenger side when some slammed honda civic sits there on my blind spot.
4) Seats have been comfortable for 30-35 minute drives and I can adjust lumber if needed, cabin is superbly quiet then again I'm coming from my car :lol:
5) Speakers are more washed out than I thought. They are meh. These have no base. Mostly mid range. But probably more they do nothing good in general.
6) Backup camera is utterly craptastic if it rains as you can't even see out of it 2 feet. Good thing this has parking sensors. Not sure if this is normal or not.
