kude Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 that when I woke up this morning, I'd be driving home in a 2003 Silverado SS. Driving to my work, my Ford F150 check engine light came on. My Ford dealer was nearby and I had them check it out. To kill time, I walked around the lot, and I see the SS. What's that doing here? I go back to the waiting room, kill some more time. I see a salesman go by. I ask what's the deal on the SS. It took a while for the salesman to figure out the alarm. I get in, and go nice seats. I for go for a test ride. I know I want it. So I get it. It's a really really nice ride. It made me smile and that's all you need. All I need is a hard tonneau cover and a bed liner. I'm not ready for mods like you guys might do, yet. I still have a lot to learn about that. I think I'm going to have a few questions on some of the gizmos it already has, so bear with me.

I have had mine for almost a year and he has yet to even sit in the driver's seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aw shucks, here I thought I was joining the dark side (more fun) side of the force. I knew I had left the dark ages as soon as I bought the SS and drove it home. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kude Posted May 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 Congrats on the truck, your gonna love it and it's gonna love your money scary part is someone musta traded it on a furd <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It loves gas, I know that. It's worth it because it is so responsive. Actually, the young man who owned it traded it for a Dodge diesel pickup on the Ford lot. Go figure. The Chevy dealer is right across the street, so I don't get it. I did a search and saw that the production run for the 2003 SSS was 1500. If thats true, is there any way to know which number (1 to 1500) we are? I look at this truck as a collectors item, but I also feel that it needs to used and not sitting in a garage.
