Just pulled the trigger on a 2011 80GS.
Not a smoking deal at $11K, but it's clean and a done deal. I'm picking it up Saturday. I ordered Torklift tie downs, but I won't have them in time. I plan to attach it to the truck for the 100 mile t...

I did my first run this past weekend with the TC. My only regret, I didn't buy one sooner. It really makes the trip much more easy and enjoyable. It was in the lower 30's at night, not my idea of tent camping weather. A few friends are now considering this route after seeing my TC and how compact it is. Like me, they thought all TC's were heavy and cumbersome.
I'm thinking air bags are in my near future. After looking at all my options, I think it's the best route for me. I like Stableload for the fact that it uses the existing springs. I don't like the fact that the uppers effect the ride when empty. My lower overload spring is really thick and in my opinion designed to contact the spring pack flush. Which the lower Stableload does not do. With the air bags I can put more or less air in depending on whether I'm trailering or not.
I'm also entertaining some kind of minor turbo upgrade to the truck. Once I'm rolling and the turbo is spooled, it's fine. Getting to that point is a little slow.
