  1. My friend and I took over 4000 pics....When we went to Spain. We took the wifes and my Uncle went also on the same fight. The pics were taken with my Canon Digital Rebel XT SLR and my friends Canon Rebel. left image ture size so you could click to get the full effect. It was brutal but I had to see it with my own eyes. here are a few...
  2. Out of control but not. Pretty cool Raptor Helicopter
  3. Remember the boston tea party..
  4. i'm hoping they were gentle loading and unloading (but i did get insurance just in case) the roads where i live are not to bad (its ok in the bigger citys and the main roads but some of the country lanes are a bit small, but i've been driving American cars and trucks for 25 years so i'm used to it lol and know which roads to avoid locally lol, i know what you mean about spain though there are some tiny roads over there, only big enough for donkrys and carts lol... I'm really carefull where i park (even if it means taking more than one space ) like you i can't stand careless people who can't park and have no respect for others property.. $5.54 a gallon I wish lol try these prices this is what we pay locally Unleaded 88.9 per liter or £4.04 $7.91 for a UK Gallon or $6.58 a US Gallon Super Unleaded 94.4 per liter £4.29 $8.40 for a UK Gallon or $6.99 a US Gallon the UK Gallon is slightly bigger than a US Gallon. Wow gas is exspensive. I just paid $2.51 for a gallon of 91 octane at costco here in Cali.
  5. Wow I had no idea. I've never heard that before as you could tell from my reaction. I wonder why the dealer would tell me its every 2 years? If so then that changes everything!!!! Thanks it is every two years but the first 6 are exempt. after that its every two years. hope this isnt the dealer you get your service done at. Yes it is ......But no smog till 2012. Good looking out! That goes for the Saab too...nice

  8. I just called the dealer and they its 2 years. Where did you get the info?
  9. WTF 4 or 5 years?????? Are you on crack? I wish it was like that, It's every 2 years here! Even so your right I could just remove the bolt-ons. But I thought the truck would pass with headers as there are street legal ones available! Warranty is also a big thing right know for me. I dont know? I need to do something!! I need to researc the price of a Tune. Hey Mike you still doing the tuninng? I dont mind the mail in thing but shit if I can get it done in one day I would rather do that. After I get some bolt ons of course. Im just
  10. Im fully loaded (4X,sunroof, leather..etc) and he was no leather no roof 2wd. I had my ass handed to me. Sucks for me but at least it was a chevy? Im glad it happened because It was the kick in the right direction! I want my truck to be able to pass smog so I that limits me. I want to tune and upgrade tranny with a shift improver kit but I've yet to here If I can do so with the M70 tranny? Is there a kit yet anybody? Part #? Also Headers and Exhaust. And that should put me even with the SSS 2wd . Soon very soon, I will have my vacation check!
  11. Good to hear! Yeah I defintely would like to see and hear that when its on the truck
  12. try EASYNEWS....check this link Forum disscussing the site. High jacked the quote from another forum. "Premium newservers like easynews.com, newscene, etc do not log downloads, thus there is no log of what you download or even what group you downloaded from. they track how much you downloaded and how many times you request a group (but not the group itself). If fact newscene.com has told me their software does not even allow them to log anything more they would have to rewrite to provide those features. Also they provide SSL if you want to encrypt the data tansfereded between you and them. They do keep complete logs on posters, but some only for a limited time Alot of ISPs do log more things some log what groups you entered, some even the article numbers you request, and burn these to CD. Downloading from usenet is one of the few areas where there is still some degree of privacy, as long as you pick a good premuim service"
  13. My 4WD V-Max has LT3 trim (lots of options), skid plate package, and a spare tire lock. It weighed 5,220 lbs with seven gallons of fuel used. Add 40 to 45 lbs for the missing fuel and I am at 5,260 give or take. My shipping invoice stated that my truck weighed 5,090 lbs. That is with only 2 or 3 gallons of gas. Gas weighs approximately 6.3 pounds/gallon. Mike Thanks for the INFO fella"s....................Hey whats up Mike..How you been? Your truck is identical except do you have the sun roof?
  14. My 4x4 needs a diet...she's to heavy! I was messing around with a new 06 SSS yesturday and I stepped out a full truck on him 1st-2nd then he started to reel me in 2nd-3rd, and got me by 1 truck length from 3rd-4th and he was still pulling. We both had passengers. He said his truck was completely stock. Damn power to weight ratio!!!! Oh well, I tried. . At least I know where I stand with you guys! I need to start buying some bolt-ons!
  15. Yeah I wasnt sure about that I figured Intellichoice was smoking crack....I know Im heavier then the SSS but I thought only by 200lbs or so considering Im 4wd. I was messing around with a new 06 SSS yesturday and I stepped out a full truck on him 1st-2nd then he started to reel me in 2nd-3rd, and got me by 1 truck length from 3rd-4th and he was still pulling. We both had passengers. He said his truck was completely stock. Has to be a 2wd vs. 4wd and power to weight ratio!!!! Oh well, I tried. . At least I know where I stand with you guys! I need to start buying some bolt-ons!
  16. Did some searching and this is what I came up with.... 2006 1500 4wd VMAX..curb weight...5,018 lbs (VortecMax 4wd) 2006 SSS 2wd...................................4,627 lbs (SSS 2wd) Not sure if this is accurate anybody know for sure?
  17. I would like to keep the Bose the way it is. Could I just relocate the amp? Could I then piggy back a HI/LO adapter (or Pac adpt.) off the rear of the head unit to an amp then the 10'? Our would that sound like crap? Cant I have my cake and eat it too? Thanks in advance!
  18. Congrats on your new truck. . Im sure when they loaded it they were real gentle with her. I've never been to the UK but When I went to spain the streets were tiny. The biggest vehicle I seen on the road was a Land Crusier. Thats the only one. The misses and I walked ours asses off for 8 days. We seen people parallel parking and bumpimg the cars in front and in back all day long. No one seemed to care. I cant stand door dings or scratches....good luck!! Oh.....and have you been saving up for you fuel costs? God knows you'll need it at $5.54 a gallon . What octane do you get for that price? .
