Rather makes one think that GM didn’t want it to breath. New motor in old body style (’05 got a taller hood) and they closed off the holes in the previous fender design? I wonder who got the bonus in Detroit for that idea.

Friday, pulling thru the hills on a run with a total weight (truck, trailer, cargo) in excess of 29k lbs and 100+* outside, that was the first time since the mod was done that the fan was back to screaming. Other than that, it's been pretty quiet.

Tranny temps were running 210, with the D-max spikeing to 205.
