Talking Check out my new toy!!

Just picked up this bad boy yesterday...its SICK...now I can tow the SS to and from the track with ease

Its a dark red (looks purple maroon, but it is a dark redish flake, very nice) 2003 GMC Sierra 1500 crew cab, fully loaded, 42,000 miles...SWEET!

Anyway, I am happy...and oh yeah, I paid the SS off too!!!! YAY!

I am still broke though

Tommy, sup buddy.

Here is the eBay link to the truck...check it out, I got it for about $4000 less than KBB prices for retail...good deal IMO...Also, I HIGHLY recommend the guys who I bought the truck from...they sell a lot of nice cars on eBay and always have nice trucks at GREAT prices! He knocked about $500 off the top to get it closer to my limit with tax/tag/title out the door! It took me about 30 minutes to buy this truck...NICE!

Check it:

Nice choice on truck and color. Black definitely looks awesome when your done cleaning it, but a day or two after it looks like you've never washed the thing before and you always find some little scratch that wasnt there before. Anyways, bad *** truck.

Well, it is a class IV hitch, which is super badass and way more than what I needed, it is bolted into the frame itself....I believe the GW that the truck can tow is like 7-8000 lbs...

I figure my car 3600 #'s and the trailer (not bought yet, probably 1000-1500 lbs) will be just right
