Bad Bowtie

Thanks, that is some pretty cool site too....

I'm thinking about selling my '69 chevy 1/2 ton 4X2 SWB. I'm the third owner (clean title), I added all billet interior peices to the tan interior, a newly re-covered 1993 chevy silverado bench seat with fold out armrest, new dash pad, carpet, matching material headliner, rear welded in roll pan, new 2"-4" coil spring drop, new adjustable pan-hard bar, new 700r4 tranny, rebuilt 3.73 rear diff, old 305 cid engine with 130K (comes with 0.30 over 2-bolt 350 cid that just needs to be reassembled), new dark tinted windows, new 1972 style front grill & chrome bumper, and new front billet grill insert. The truck is all primered for now and needs some body, no rust anywhere. New cab corners and rocker panels installed. 1987 chevy truck factory repainted rally wheels, new 275/60R15 radial tires, and non-a/c truck. I added factory 1972 disc brakes, power brakes, power steering, I updated to 5 lugs at all corners, and I rebalanced a new drive shaft. I rides and runs really well. It's primered red with black SS stripes (kinda cool looking), and it has a new 2nd generation tailgate on the bed. I added a factory am/fm radio to this truck and bought the new dual dash speaker kit, and bought the new style kick panels with the molded speakers. I also added the factory tach and vaccum gauges cluster to this truck. What would it bring dollar wise in TX area?

Yeah, I'm not too happy either guys. Thew GMC does look better than the Chevy in this video. I've thought about getting an '07 Classic GMC VHO just so I can "hang on" to our current generation as long as possible. Maybe even better now too, since they come with that 5yr/100K powertrain warranty.

Check this out I found a new 2007 body style GM video here...

Always a smart choice. ALWAYS. Congrat's fellow trucker....

Well my dealer had the VHO for 2 days, and they replaced another actuator. We shall see what happens in the next few days....

Marine Blue metallic was an '04 color only!!! That is was what I was trying 2 get and missed 1 by about 3 days.... This guy pulled a travel trailer to the car cruise so he had those fugly slip-on mirror extenders at the time. I also agree those Z71 molded non-painted fender flares blow!!!

Here is another brethern of the trucking world. A blue '04 GMC SLT VHO owned by Bobby from Sugarland, TX. Note the cool stripes and custom camaro-esk hood scoop... Me standing beside the cool VHO....

Ur funny 05VHO, or at least I'm fortunate and can "trust" my dealership. I just want the hot air problem resolved, its silly to drive such a great truck and have to pull over and restart it each time to get the cold air back on. I never had this problem unitl just recently.....

The other weird thing is that my truck never worked properly on MAX a/c. I could ALWAYS smell outside things such as fresh cut grass, diesel fuel, etc. Also, when I would switch to MAX a/c the air flow NEVER increased in speed like all of the other cars I've owned or driven/rode in. The dealer fixed this problem on my last visit!!! In fact, my dad is taking his 2004 GMC for this same MAX air problem this Thursday (his never has worked correctly either). Maybe everyone on here should check the MAX air operations of their trucks, I'm curious to see how many others out there don't work right....

But why would it blow good & cold on the 2 passanger side upper vents then?

I have a 2004 GMC Sierra VHO 1/2 ton that blows hot air (feels like outside vent air) only on the drivers side 2 upper dash vents sometimes. I had it in 4 service last week and GM replaced the digital a/c control head and an actuator motor under the dash. I have the a/c on "Auto" setting 99% of the time as I have the electric dual zone a/c system. Has anyone else had or heard of this problem? I've noticed that if I pull over and kill the engine, remove the key, and restart the truck everything works fine again. I've never had any a/c problem before with my VHO so I wanted 2 try this forum 1st, before I schedule another trip 2 the dealership. Thanks in Advance, Jon

Sounds good, maybe I can make the next one too.....

Ur V-Maxx is not the performance package truck right? Meaning u have a 5.3L right? Just curious...

Well how did it go guys? ANy pics 4 the rest of us??? I had 2 work, otherwise I would have been there 2 add another 360hp 2 the line-up...LOL!!!!

It's more like a maroon color right? Anyway, welcome aboard & congrats on the new Vortec Maxx Performance Edition truck!! I feel as if it was both the SMART choice as well as the RIGHT choice for you.... Right people?

Congrats on the VHO buddy. I C U found a fast color too!!! LOL!!! No really ur gonna love that truck!!! Post sum pics soon okay??

I like the hockey stripes on!!!
