I don't have traction as it is even with my 20's. I am sersoully getting some DR. However, if 100lb meant I was would be getting traction, I would keep those 100 pounds.

I thought Escalade's only came with the LQ9 6.0L? Did he drop in the 5.3L?

The base model comes in a 2wd 5.3 and the 6.0 awd is an option.

I'm going to have to weigh my truck. It should be pretty light. No power windows or cruise, 16" wheels.
