vtodd82 Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 well, some of you might remember me mentioning the idea of trading the ss in on a corvette. well, after much consideration, i choose against that idea.....after more consideration, i have concluded a 05 GTO manual 6 speed will suit me better at the moment. the dealer has located a cylcone grey 05 with the black leather interior. they want $30,200 starting. i dont know how much they will budge, but iam guessing not much if any at all. over the phone they told me i could get 25-26 grand on my SS being completely stock and in excellent condition. since i a good chunk of change put into the truck, they are refering me to luxury motors next door for an apprasial. they supposedly give more accurate and more fair prices for aftermarket, and will buy the truck from the dealership once the trade is complete. iam hoping to get out with the gto for my truck and 2000 + or so g's. depends on if they budge at all on the price. wish me luck tommorow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j4nash Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 why don't you keep the ss and trade the 2003 SILVERADO 5.3L ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big O Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 I don't think his brother would be very impressed if he traded off the 5.3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChevySSandChevy8.1 Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 GTO is a nice ride, especially at the price you are getting it at, but you will probably miss the awd. Good luck with the new ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orion :: SS Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Sports Car > Fast Truck ...any day. Both is better... If you HAVE to own a truck (towing, hauling, etc...), and can only have have one fast vehicle...then SSS all the way. Otherwise...I want a fast ride I can drive on a road course. I have MANY, MANY times considered selling my SS (and my 240SX) to have a Z06 for a daily driver / track whore. ...but having both is actually cheaper. ... Anyway, ENJOY the new car. LS2 + 6-speed...me likey. - Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMBRWLF1997 Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Good luck on your quest for excellence. A MAN HAS TO DO WHAT A MAN HAS TO DO. In the end I think you will miss the SS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
