I know your excited about getting your new truck soon. But dam the one you have now is gorgeous for an older KW. Just hope who ever gets this KW will take care of it just like you do. I take it that they will be doing the old school lettering and paint scheme like this one on the new one? Not a fan of the def but who really is. Hopefully the new KW won't have any issues dealing with the def like a lot are. Love the videos and your down to earth self. Look forward to the next one.

For the snow plow trucks why don't all your trucks have wing blades on the sides, is it a business choice or municipal regulations? Awesome content can't wait to watch more, all the best!
