RC Driving Style
As of July 16. 2007. This is my new toy. Its not flashy...but its my first "new" vehicle I have ever bought. It has the "locking" diff which have I have "tested" a few times. It came with the towing/hauling package and has the Big V-8. This puppy is a far cry from my Ranger. Anyway, will be adding a cap in February and it will soon become the perfect outdoorsman's toy...

Very nice.

Congrats on the new ride.
 
I don't care for those styles of wheels, however the new Chevy's just look awesome. Lots of improvements to them compared to last years model.

Very nice!

Thanks Guys,

I really like it and do not foresee any buyers remorse...I would have preferred the different wheels, but in looking for the best deal, I knew I wanted something off the lot...The ext cabs were not even in my salary bracket...Anyway, It has more than enough power and space for me....Sorry no smoke shows...(At least not on purpose)

Good choice!!


i was always around GM vehicles and i will only buy GM vehicles
 
Nice!

I still haven't been able to buy new. Dakota is the first one I ever made payments on. 5yrs old, but just 23,000 miles.


Enjoy.
 
GMC= Got Mechanic Coming! Nice and chevy don't belong in the same sentance. J/K I had an S-10 for 11 years, took it cross county a few times and never had to put more than the normal wear and tear repairs in. Not bad for a truck that was 8yrs old when I bought it for $3,500. Have fun with it, looks nice.
 
Nice truck,I have already built my new 2008 chevy on paper getting ready to order ,I have a 2004 and love it but it is a lease through my shop and its up this year so time to move on,how do you like the new chevys so far,I'm still not used to the body style,,,
 
I really like the power!!! Big surprise there huh? lol. It is really a solid vehicle. I went from a Ford Ranger that "felt" and "sounded" thin...to this. It has some serious warranties with it....These will be in place for most of the time I am paying for it....that said, I am curious to see what happens when I have to put GM Customer Service to the test. The "fuel management" system really seems to help with gas efficiency, Its not broken in yet and I appear to be getting 16-18 mpg overall. All I know is I towed a 17 foot fiberglass bass boat with a 115hp on the back 71mph at 1800 rpms....thats nice....
Anyway, thanks for the compliments.
