    2008 Chevy Silverado LT 5.3L Vortec:

    This is the only pic I have right now, I just washed and waxed it.


    Great truck, could use a cat-back.


    2008 Pontiac G6 V6 3.5L:

    No pics right now, will add later.



    This car has had a lot more problems than the truck, but it would be a good DD.


    And that's it. My parents are getting a used ZL1 Camaro in about 3 years.

    you can buy a escalade front end for that and make it look real good. i still dont like the chevy grill. the GMC front end looks like its going to eat something. and i like it much better.

    just today i saw a new gmc 2500 4x4 lifted at least 4 inches, and had no bigger than 35 on it, truck looked beastly to say the least, nice tough stance.

    If it were my truck, I would get wheels that were a couple inches bigger, they look kind of small. It also needs a louder exhaust.

    My parents are probably going to sell it and get an 07+ Tahoe, because my Mom is using it for her business deliveries.

    We've noticed.

    Anywhoooooooooooooooooo...I'll play along. My old man picked this up for his 60th birthday present to himself...hasn't had a brand new car since he was 22 when he got out of college, figured it was time to upgrade. I tossed this up in the members rides section awhile back...look for some catted long tubes and a dyno pull this spring to see if it cracks the 300 RWHP mark on 87 octane.
