Default My new Corvette hauler. w/pics

Picked up a Z71. LOVE IT.

No major plans with it other then enjoy it, and maybe a few small things or two. LED/HID stuff mostly complete,..Diablosport Trinity Installed, Made a smooth air pipe and filter using stuff we have in stock in just a few minutes. I also recently installed some chrome ForgeTec wheels, which I hate chrome(crazy deal from old dealership)...so I plasti-dipped them. Pretty happy with outcome.

Plans to pull out the 3.73 gears and go 3.08..and a small, tow friendly single, o maybe twin turbos....since I have everything already.

Yes, I know.

Anywho,..here she is...













@diablosport




















before...


also bought these..3..with tires. Need 1 more.


after







Anywho, I love it. Such an awesome vehicle. What do you tow your vette with?

Thanks man. I wanna get it out to Texas soon. I have the F1x car and a couple of other rides we gotta get testing with so, I plan to have a few different cars to test with over the next years worth of time. So this is ideal for me when getting to the local track with these whoopties.

Tow with, wtf Jamie drive it

I use to use my previous 05 lifted 2500hd with a front mount 70mm, worked perfect for towing. Now I'd rather drive it to prove I built it right, + knowing where the closest u-hauls are helps.

I love tahoes. They are really hard to beat. The wheels look a ton better dipped.

I yank mine around with a 02 Duramax ext cab. I had a Yukon a while back and find myself missing the room often.

lol, I was waiting for someone to stand on my *****. Glad it was someone I know lol.

Bro you know me....anything that CAN happen, will happen. If i'm not breaking hearts, I'm breaking cars. Any car. lol. I will indeed drive it to the track but, no time soon. It will need to be put through it's paces several times before though.

You bastard!! lol.

ps, I want the turbo kit off your truck bro.

Awesome man, thank you. Glad you dig the wheels dipped. I really like the tahoes myself, the interior space is AWESOME. My roommate was beating me up on getting a duramax for the towing ability and for fuel efficiency,...which for me, ended up being a tough call when it came time to decide but,..went with the tahoe. We'll see how it plays out, so far, I LOVE this thing.
