  1. I love the new bodies, especially going back to the square body. But I cannot stand chrome.
  2. check out some BBS rims, similar look like the GM wheels you picked out.
  3. One other difference which is minimal are the fonts on the MPH, tachometer etc from 03-04 or 05s....they switched to a different font in 05 or 06.
  4. Bump for a great, high quality, very respectful member. Great price.
  5. You just changed the definition of "go big or go home" Words do not give this build justice. Keep up the great work. After driving a F250 diesel turbo, I would love one in my truck. I wonder how much gravitational force this thing will make throwing you back in the seat....
  6. Bully locking tailgate should help a little until someone learns how to get by it, I also have a flush mount internal locking bed cover which helps.
  7. It must have been a DEI SSS badge or Monte Carlo badge http://www.tbssowners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=55008
  8. If you got your last truck in 10s, you may want awd for traction. I have nothing against 2wd at all, but my best comparison is when I was driving a GMC Z71 while owning my SS. After driving my SS model and then hopped in the Z71, I found my rear end getting loose, and I am known as a slow/easy driver. Jump in the SS and no spin. The Z71 had Pirelli's, gibson exhaust, K&N cai. Maybe some 2wd guys can chime in on Caltracs and how much they help, or other ways to get best traction. Please do not think I am knocking 2wd, I have 2 other SSS trucks I am lightly considering (06 DEI SS, 07 SS with 23k miles on it).
  9. Does the SD have blocks in the rear? The SS does not for the lower stanced. This may be a little off topic but just trying to help out some as differences if you may need to know down the line. Truck looks very nice sir. Is that AWS also? My buddy had a SD w/AWS but as time goes on I forgot what years AWS was offered.
  10. Your buddy mentioned about your heart attack or valve issue, so that is your responsibility to control the rumors/leaks, not mine. So wether your buddy was lieing or you were, remains to be seen. And what bs do I post about myself? Do you know me? You know me as the PITA to you on here, that's about it. Keep drawing conclusions Jeff, it is funny and sad things you are wrong about by assumption like saying "I burnt Jesse" on the brake job. This has gotten way out of hand though, especially considering your a moderator. You should know where to draw the line, but obviously you do not. Other mods would agree that you have crossed the line but I will not state their names. Shaun - I do respect you a lot, you are on the top 10 on here for knowlegde and fastest trucks. We may have had differences. However "the waterboy" reference is clear as day. I do not wish to speak about mentally challenged people, I am not that type but maybe Jeff is. That show with the street racing is pretty crazy out in OK. I just read a message about your Corsa if you have it still please let me know (this was months ago when i got the message on another website, so obviously it may be long gone).
  11. You are as smart as a whipper snapper. And if you need me i can be there in 3.5 hours. And as far as family loss, I will not go further because people come to conclusions on their own terms. If you had someone pass away during that time I am sorry. Otherwise, it is sad comparing me to Adam Sandler and the waterboy. I guess NorthEast members have a sad sense of comedy when comparing death to life (only a hand chosen few of you). Read it yourself Jeff, how would you like it if I made fun of your hear attack? Simply put, I wouldn't because I respect you. But when it comes to me, you tear me apart on here on any subject. Shows your character which I will never understand, nor how you were appointed a moderator with you smart remarks. A Moderator should lead in example regardless the member on here, not being a smart Alec. Owners of the site, please understand I am only speaking on what I believe. Please PM me if this is a serious situation.
  12. Shuan, I am the one liking your posts. I agree with what you are saying. Thank you for the corrections. And you pointed it out yourself studying to be a private investigator is different than a homicide detective. That is all I will say. And as far as the other thread about 4 people dieing, I meant as only 4 deaths and not 50. But saying making a big deal out of nothing was wrong. And Jeff, yes I have had family loss at the similar time and am fighting for my life currently. So I would appreciate if you just stop harassing me, please. As far as the case, I have my own certain questions after watching the indictment. I was hoping he was not involved but he obviously is in some way. I have seen the news which obviously is not as good as your sources (in some instances) since my earlier post that they are investigating more incidents which I did not know about. My only 2 questions remain about the current one: motive and where is the gun. We all thought Casey Anthony and OJ Simpson were guilty....Again comparing cases is not right. Blwnaway sorry for the uproar.
  13. ^^Actually I have taken classes for becoming a PI Jesse, I just have no need to talk about it publicly but will do so in this case as you seemed happy I have intentions of being an Private Investigator. I do not care how many shots were fired, one was to his arm in an attempt to block the fatal shots to the torso. But who pulled the trigger? Yes they are guilty by association but the one who inflicted the fatal shot is the one. If you call Hernandez a killer, then everyone in that car has to be called a killer. Their holding a person (will not say the name) in another state just below us whoes records/affidavits were sealed involving this case. What other murders is he being checked on? Last time I only heard their was the guy in FL who got shot in the face and now he is coming forth (and I am sure a bunch will crawl out of the woodwork as usual to get a piece of the pie). Please let me know I have not heard of any other murders being investigated.
  14. ^^ Boat launch is in need of "serious repairs" according to some people who go to this place. I saw video of the launch site and would never put my vehicle their to launch a boat, way to sketchy.
  15. Good point Stitches, but wheres the murder weapon and proof on who pulled the trigger on the fatal shot that caused the death? We all know their is security footage but once we know who did the fatal shot, I do not judge. Also, the coverage I recieve is a lot better than NECN. The coeverage in your area is not what it is here. And you cannot trust some MA state investigators especially after the Annie Dookhan case which jailed thousands of innocent people and the drug lab scandal in Amherst where the lady was on more drugs than the victims she was testing. Also look at Bulger and his case. A lot more info will come out and it will be interesting. And still no more info on Odin Lloyd beating Hernandez's fiancee's sister which could be an insanity defense. I have a feeling this may be something big, and also why won't Lloyd's family comment on the Odin and Aaron's friendship? Very shady. edit - and as far as the tigh end to wide reciever comment you obviously do not know what your talking about, maybe they do that in FL but only pedophile's and rapist get that treatment here.
  16. Yes its sad, but how can everyone speculate that he pulled the trigger? I honestley do not believe he did it, yes he may have been their. Their are people already saying the other 2 guys were heated, big secret is are they hiding under WPP to testify or.... Know one has spoken much about the possible violence with Hernandez's fiancee's sister and Lloyd. Very important but will be passed on as he is now the victim. I hate to say it, what is even worse is Ray Lewis. Just my opinion. But still this is sad, hope he is not guilty and given a 2nd chance.
  17. Very nice truck, maybe one of the only GM trucks I like over the SS. L92 + Tvs1900 is nice but I would miss the awd a lot.
  18. I need bumper brackets, the ones I have, have the bumper sitting about a half inch above the cladding due to some reason. Let me know if you still have these brackets. My bumper is fine, but if your not willing to part brackets/bumper let me know. Thank you.

    Towing Question

    In your case sir, I would no question add some rear suspension equipment such as helper bags. And if you want your Super Sport truck to handle much better than an HD you will want to add sway bars front and rear. Your truck will be like this with helper bags: With no bags you will be like this In towing operations, I honestly believe you need every option on your side. From watching these videos no question I would add rear helper bags. As far as sway bars, DJM has the best and most thick however they do not work with a Corsa exhaust system. I honestly prefer Belltech but my opinion. I hope this helps in your towing matters. Also, I would consider a bigger alternator. My neighbor who was treasurer of the Corvete Club of New England had a Pro Sport GMC Z71 and he had two batteries, and a the towing edition 2005 alternator. This was just for protection, not for normal use. E-fans can always help free up some little hp. I highly suggest a tune, but this is something you should talk to Wheatley, Zippy, Kelley Performance or Blackbear. They can change your Tourqe Management in a tune if needed and change your shift points if needed outside the stock towing button. But realize when you add a cai, muffler, you will gain HP, and even more power can be extracted even more from a tune. I would sell you my stock hitch that has been on my truck in a heartbeat, but due to certain circumstances I cant even wrench right now sir.

    COPO Camaro

    Been watching those since they came out, BAMF. No offense, I am not a Camaro fan at all but with these times I would take it over a Z06, which I would see nearly impossible until it comes to throwing cash at the dealership owner.
  21. ^^^You kill me on every thread, but I have to say you are correct bro! I guess I am still a newb since 2005
  22. whats the hurry? If you want a dependable truck, it must be built correctly not quickly. Or sacrifice quality or dependability. I am sorry for the harsh words, but searching and figuring out what works best with these truck is a must do. Or you are blindly jumping into a pit of snakes.
  23. Corsa use to be GMPP so no worries, I do not think anyone would take money off due to a Corsa. Go with the GMPP cai intake, it is completely enclosed and it is not an oiled filter and GM performance product. Will help gain some hp's, may want to add a custom tune. With the tune, it can always be re-tuned back to stock. Dealership may not like but too bad. You probably have hands down the lowest 06. May want to go Wheatley, Zippy or Kelley Performance (JKP).
  24. Workhorse, if it is not much to have the tank dropped I may go with your guy also as my lines may have be problematic due to certain issues. I have numerous options but you know my situation like Aldofoshow does. We will getting your truck working on the norm soon, wether its dealerhsip or your mechanic Can't wait to BBQ when I am done with treatment sir!
  25. ^^^^^ You just killed half my illness bro with laughter!
