VHO_Tek Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 OK... thats all fine and dandy... but by that logic you should be able to build a Crewcab 2wd with the "Performance Edition" option... but you can't. What I'm getting at: IS THERE A WAY TO GET A LQ9 POWERED 2WD CREW CAB W/O 4WD??? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> (dumb question time) Have you gone to the Chevy dealer and asked if they can order you a truck with the options you want? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Found this link http://media.gm.com/us/powertrain/en/produ...PWT_LQ4_LQ9.pdf Man thats a big link, cut and paste of it says this: Vortec MAX availability expanded to Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra In addition to serving customers interested in high performance, the Vortec MAX will also become available in 2006 to serve those seeking the highest trailering capability in the light-duty pickup segment. For optimum trailering, the Vortec MAX will become available in light duty four-wheel drive Silverado and Sierra extended cab standard bed and four-wheel drive crew cab short bed pickups equipped with the RPO NHT trailering package at the start of the 2006 model year. In addition to the Vortec MAX, the trailering package provides a new 9.5-inch axle and 17-inch wheels for best-in-class trailering capability of 8,700 pounds in the 4WD Extended Cab and 8,400 pounds in 4WD Crew Cab models. Production of the Vortec MAX for two-wheel drive light duty Silverado and Sierra Extended Cab standard bed and two-wheel-drive crew cab models ordered with RPO NHT will begin in January of 2006. The package, which includes the same equipment content, enables customers to achieve best-in-class trailering capability in these segments. Now if we read that it says yes 2WD Crew Cab with LQ9 "will" be available starting January 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 well, i was just up front on the gm autobook program and it will allow you to build a crew cab 2wd with LQ9. if you can build it on here, it must be available. there was no pricing available so it must be fairly new availability, but it was available.

TimC3 Posted December 9, 2005 Report Share Posted December 9, 2005 Sweet. Thanks Zippy... I thought it seemed like a logical thing to offer. Thanks everybody else for posting links and input too! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So now that that's settled, I'm curious why you ask? Thinking about getting rid of the SS? or is this for someone else? I think the Crewcab GM's look freakin awesome (the new Denali's for example) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
