  9. Can't have anything nice in SOCAL

    in Off-Topic/General

    Posted

    unfortunately there are savages out there that have no respect for anyone's property. a few months ago i dealt with about 30 vehicle breakins within a 2-3 block span over 1 night. all were broken into and were looted clean surprisingly none were stolen. moral of the story is there are definitely people out there who dont care about getting caught and will take your car if they want it.

     

    any updates with the truck?

    i think you guys loose track that were talking about a 10 year old GM truck thats 2 generations old. majority of these trucks are rust buckets that are in need of paint / rust repair. if you think that rust is bad you better raise your price range up a lot because you wont find much better than that unless you want a garage queen that was stored out of the elements. the price is average not great not the worst. as stated above if the truck is clean otherwise and mechanically sound it doesn't hurt to make an offer

    thats not bad at all. some trucks up here in NY have rust bubbles and rusted out fenders already. its so bad the entire under carriage looks like it was painted brown and you can see it from a distance without going under the rig. for a truck that has been driven thats better than average imo. if everything else is clean i wouldn't let that steer you away its not as if the rust is bad enough to rot anything. as stated above use it as leverage and do a thorough check of the brake lines. i just replaced the brake in my H2 a few months ago.

    i had a brake failure on an exit ramp off a highway doing about 60 in my old yukon. i had enough time to slow the truck down with the e brake but i was shitting my pants. turns out a brake line was corroded and just blew out at that point :thumbsup:

     

    recently my hummer had a brake line bust open also. break fluid all over the place. its safe to say this generation GM truck has a break line issue. im curious if you order the stainless doorman let me know how they are

    ive had both style superchargers i cant say which i liked better each had its pros - cons. the radix was great for reliability / longevity i believe it requires an oil change once every 50k?. made really good instant power also. the procharger is able to out power the radix and honestly nothing beats the sound of those things at an idle. but they require regular oil changes and have a shorter life span
