If it doesn't have 4 doors and chrome center caps, I don't want it!

Thanks guys. You see Darth Vader, everyone around here sees a cop. You have no idea how many times someone will come up on me and then just sit there for MILES to finally realize I'm not a cop.

Yea, it has the 32 valve 4.6 with 305 HP. Essentially it's a non SC Cobra engine. This is one of about 5300.

2007.5 Silverado 5.3. Utilitarian, ice cold AC, remote start from the factory. I really like this truck. And since this summer has been pretty uncomfortable outside and the AC died in the Camaro I have been driving it a heck of a lot more than the Camaro this summer. Hey, I like my AC!

Nice! That's what I have as a daily driver as well. I have SW long tubes, ud pulleys, 2-1/2" exhaust, 2800 stall, j-mod, 4:10's, and a Marty-O tune.

Spend a lot of time in the DD with a 135 mile commute.

But it popped the radiator at 265K and needed a few other things, so decided to find something with less miles that made the long drives more enjoyable and bought this for a daily...

For the 5-10 actually bad snow days in the winter I will use this for the commute, since it was the previous daily driver before the Impala

70 miles a day. Actually fairly comfortable. I don't mind it getting wear and tear, but I'll go back to the Silverado once the snow starts flying though.
