Riding in the GT55
 
What more could you want? (besides that! :unibrow: ) Twisty road, no traffic, and nice weather. The road is HWY 1 that splits off of 101 right at Leggett (SP?) in Northern CA and heads out to the coast. We will definitely be doing this again!

Enjoy the video!
Video here

Ride looks awesome!

Unfortunately, I shot the video on low res. It was my first time shooting video with my digital camera, and didn't know how to adjust the resolution until a day or two later. I guess we might just have to find another twisty road...(snaps finger in sarcastic disappointment)

The speedo was acting up and I didn't look at the tach, but in 3rd the speed range is 35-70mph. We ran the entire road in 3rd, and there were posted corners as low as 15mph. The pucker-meter was quite high around a few of those corners though!

wow...looks almost exactly like my drive to work every morning.... btw an 05 duramax 2500HD will take 25 mph "S" turns like those at about 72mph, 33" toyo M/T's are actually a quite good handling tire on a 7000lb truck :thumbsup:
