Default New DD/tow rig on the way

Ill be picking it up tomorrow. 2005 Silverado SS. its black, 6.0 V8, 20" chrome wheels, leather, heated seats, satelite radio, so on and so on. basicly every option possible. only 7000 miles on it, and i ended up gettin it for 26,000. so i think i got a pretty dam good deal. i know this thread is pretty worthless without pics, but i figured i'd post about it anyway, lol. im picking up the truck tomorrow after work, so ill post up pics afterwards.

now the camaro is off the road, so its time to strip the camaro, and get it ready for next year. i just need a trailer, and a couple other little parts

a trailer is the cheap part, you already have the car that could use a trailer, and the truck to tow it with so get out and get that trailer.

thanks guys. and yea plenty more weight can be taken out,lol. the k-member and a-arms will make a big difference, hvac,power steering, air bags, cd player,speakers, and plenty more,lol.

i figure an exhaust, intake and a tune for now. maybe a few appearance mods.no major plans for the truck right now, as most of my money will be going towards the car.

and yea, i was talkin to the salesman about how badass the truck will look with the trailer and car behind it. cant wait.

yea we might be upgrading from our black 2004 Silverado 2500HD LS 6.0 to a white 2006 silverado 3500 ls 8.1. my dad is big into matching our car is white he wants the truck white and he was thinking about painting the roof (inbetween the doors) black. i dont think it woudl look great but who knows maybe well end up waiting for the 2007 all new truck to come out.

sounds good, now you can take that trip to atco to get the real nice numbers and not have to worry about breaking it.
