Ever watch a movie where two guys are fighting in one room then end up in a completely different room still fighting?? Thats what it feels like with ZYBORG's and 07 z71 silverado's threads.

I should be ordering some new tires here soon. My best was on the 620whp. On the new its spin city. DR's are done. I think I might throw a anti roll bar in it also.

My next time out will most likely not come till late August early September. When it starts to cool off some. Screw this 100+* crap.

Well....since I pretty much own the companies I work at I don't really have to do much but I get up at 5 to hit the gym then at around 8 I go to "work."

Now I just sit around and bitch about my ram and pester my mechanic about getting the rear on my camaro so I can go shatter dreams.

Stop being a homo and suspension that bitch so we can see how it really runs. Don't be a me and run around with power power power and no suspension lol. I bet your car has a 9 in it pretty damn soon.

I work for the US govt. My day consists of: work for 30 mins and finish everything for the day (A 5 year old could do my job) and then sit around browsing 'tech or watching youtube/netflix for the next 11 1/2 hours. I don't really have any supervision; my boss is the head of 2 sections and I get all my work done on time so he leaves me alone all day.

Yeah I definitely got lucky with this job even though it's boring.


What do you guys think of this? I may trade my car in on this one:

reasoning behind it: my car just turned over 120K miles. It needs a few things tires, ETC. If I get the 06 my payment wont be bad, I have already talked them down a few grand and they are giving me 15K trade in

Thats one pretty c6. As long as you don't have to finance a dime I'd do it.

Only thing is I HATE red... keep looking? Or do it and deal with the color. I wasn't crazy about QSM either but it grew on me

Well if you're financing I say go for another color if it's that big of a deal... I mean 2-3k more for a better color shouldn't really hurt you.
