Yea this weather blows. My little cavalier does suprisingly well though haha. I've been making decent money plowing, about the only good thing to come about.

thanks those are 36x14.50s and they look TINY on this big truck. Next time i know to spring for 39.5s but I couldn't tow my camaro around then since it would be too high and wobbly in the wind.

damn that truck is higher off the ground than it looks in the pictures. The 39.5's will make that truck look even better. Haven't seen a jacked up suburban in a long time. Does it have a small block or big block?

small block for now, but when it finally kicks i'll probably be looking for a 454 tbi setup or just step up to a 6.0L combo possibly.
