Default I can't believe I actually bought one of these..

I must be losing my mind but, they are giving them away right now. Thery make great highway cruisers. We are going to use it mainly for road trips and when we have guests come in town. I did have to do a few "changes" to mine. I just picked it up from the audio place today. I lowered it 2" front 3" rear, 24" wheels, HID lights, blacked out all the emblems, dark tint, clear bra ect.. Now all it needs is a pair of turbos..

Looks SWEET! Can't go wrong with black, but by looking at the rest of your beauties, you're already aware of that!

It's been lowered already?

Looks like it could go a little lower in the front and rear. I'd get those wheels lips an inch from kissing the rubber.

Unless you're going to tow with it.

Sweet ride.

.....oh, and thank you from a GM math surface designer. The 'brand bar' on the tailgate is mine.

I bought a new 'burb as well, the thing is like riding in a bank vault. I hauled 5 people, a cargo carrier on the roof, hauling 80-85 to the beach this summer and managed 17 mpg...not bad in my book!

It could go lower, but I wanted it to ride as close to stock as possible and it does. I have a F450 for towing, this is just for hauling people. Thanks for your design bar!

Jonny, when are you dropping it of with Pascual?

thanks guys, it looks like I'm not the only one here that kinda likes them..

hmm..I'm thinking a head/cam LS7....
