Jokes on him, because I don't have $2000 either, LMAO!. I opened it because it looked a lot like a buddy of mine's old truck. It had all kinds of issues and he ended up dumping it for a Lightning. I kind of thought the person may have gotten sick of all the issues with it too and wanted to dump it cheap. It ended up not being that truck though.

Probably so, lol. I just looked the number up. It's listed to a Bryan Vallejo in Jupiter Fl.

I could drop the LQ9 in my T/A, have some spare drivetrain stuff, and part the rest out...and probably still make most of the money back.. Don't have the disposable funds laying around though, so maybe someone else might be interested in checking it out.

Holy Crap. Awesome runs, but it definitely sucks to hear about the fire.

I agree with Diamondss. 100% Apples to Oranges Comparison. If the money were there, I'd consider trading my 98 T/A for the 16 SS, but the truck serves a completely different purpose than those. Because of that, personally, I'd not trade my SSS on one. Unless you use your truck for nothing more than driving in nice weather, and driving fast, I'd pass. If you use it for a truck function, in any capacity, I'd advise against it. The new 6.2 Sierra/Silverado on the other hand.... That's a lot more tempting to me.

Copied this from another post. Sounds like the same issue though... levilz Senior SS Member Member 344 posts 0 warning points Gender:Male Location:Clarksburg, WV Owns:SS Color:Arrival Blue Year:2003 Drivetrain:AWD Posted 19 November 2015 - 12:52 PM Sounds to me like it just needs to do an adaptive idle relearn. I'd try unhooking the battery again for about 30 minutes, then hooking it back up. Start the engine, and bring it up to temp. and then shut it off. Start it back up and put it in drive until the fan cycles on and off (5 minutes or so), then turn it off again. Wait 5 seconds, then start it and let it run for another 5 minutes. Then shut it off, wait 5 seconds and start it again, and it should be good to go. A dead battery shouldn't do anything to the tune itself. If you don't go through that procedure, it will even itself out after a while. It's just annoying with the idle surging and acting like the engine wants to stall out in the meantime. I'm not sure the extent of the affect it has on power under a load, but it may have something to do with that too. I'd try that and see if it helps. Best of luck.

Not a problem. Hope that takes care of it.

Most all of the counties have gone to cinders now (at least in the northern half of the state anyway. I don't go south of Weston very often). I'm from Tucker County. We were one of the first ones to switch over back in the 90's because we were having a ton of accidents due to the deer coming to the salt.

Found this one local in Morgantown. It has a stupid wing out back, but the price is right, and that can be removed... Just incase anyone is looking. http://morgantown.craigslist.org/cto/5296066341.html

I believe Fireman31 is an admin on there.

Not a problem bud. Glad you like it!!

Ditto. Thanks to everyone who has served, or who is currently serving, the country.

You're going to have more than $500 in suitable tires (Sorry, I know it's not what you want to hear, but those Nittos are going to be terrible...) and weighting the rear down enough to keep your truck on the road. I always used a couple bags of concrete in my 2wd S10. Another thing to consider, is the cost and pain in the butt of having to clean the salt from under it constantly to keep it from rusting. I usually spend about $30 a week cleaning mine during the winter. I'd say when you get there, pick up a $500 turd to get you through the winter, and save yourself the headache. With winterizing and (hopefully not much) repairs, it is going to save a good bit in the long run. As stated before, it's definitely a good idea to keep the gas and washer fluid full and the tires aired up

Looks good man!

Down for installed pics and info too!

Didn't buy mine to set. That's for sure...

Agreed. The Magnaflow gives it a nice mellow rumble. I really love the Corsa sound too, but they can be expensive if you don't happen to come across a deal on one. I've actually heard people say they were too loud too "rolls eyes". I'm more of a true dual and 1-chamber person, but it definitely doesn't sound like that's what you're wanting. My best suggestion is you google some soundclips of different setups and decide for yourself which one you prefer. I'd advise too against changing pipe sizes, if all you're wanting is some additional sound. It's a waste to move to a bigger pipe until you're making big power. Just replace the muffler, or do a full cat-back and be done.
