Picking up my new truck tomorrow!
I just bought a 2011 GMC Sierra RCSB 4wd 5.3L-6L60E and want to ask you guys honestly, should I drive it nice and easy for a couple hundred or thousand miles or haul @$$??? I will replace the oil for royal purple as soon as I get it, will install 4.10's because it has 3.42's and magnaflow catback and probably airaid cai or volant.. Btw who can tune it?

what are the goals/purposes of this truck? with the 6l80 your first gear is gonna be really short with 4.10s...I would probably drive it easy for a couple hundred miles/not thousands. Then haul @$$...

Goals.. I wish I can get my hands on a 6.2L, cam it, procharge it and stall it.. But not for the first 2 years when the warranty covers it.. I already talked with the guys at the dealer and they say they are cool with the upgrades I mentioned in my first post..
I live in Sonora Mexico.. Two hours from the Arizona border and I spend a lot of time in Tucson Az and phx because I'm in the outfitting business.. What gear ratio should I go with??
