jck3120 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Posted December 15, 2008 Hey guys, I'm new to the forum and just wanted to say hi. Just bought an 06 Sierra Denali, black w/ gray leather and 20" factory chromes. Has the 6.0L LQ9 Vortec Max and AWD. Truck is stock, except for tinted windows all around and an A.R.E. fiberglass tonneau cover. So far I love it! Had placed an 05 Silverado SS on hold but the dealer sold it out from under me. Soon I wanna do exhaust (debating between Corsa Sport and Magnaflow), C.A.I, a tune (don't know from where yet...suggestions?), and some HID's. And eventually I'll go forced induction. We'll see where this takes me... Thanks! Here's a picture just before I bought it, will get some new ones once there's a nice day out here in MI... Quote
1BAD2K Posted December 15, 2008 Report Posted December 15, 2008 Welcome aboard. Truck looks badass. If I didn't have a SSS I would have a denali for sure Quote
Joe Roknic Posted December 15, 2008 Report Posted December 15, 2008 Congrats on your purchase, nice truck. Welcome to the fourm. Quote
detjoe Posted December 15, 2008 Report Posted December 15, 2008 Welcome, where in MI?? there is a nice group of us here in MI. side note: I have a corsa sport that might fit your truck and we might be close to each other Quote

I'm actually just west of Flint, but I work at the GM tech center in Warren as a powertrain development engineer. Would love to meet some fellow SS/Denali owners in MI. I'm real interested in that exhaust, why did you remove it from your truck? Good shape? Price? PM me if you'd rather...Thanks! Quote
Black2003SS Posted December 15, 2008 Report Posted December 15, 2008 Welcome. I'm a forced induction guy in Waterford and also have the Corsa sport, but I'm NOT SELLING IT Thats a bit of a hike to the tech center from where you are. My dad retired from GM and I have a couple of friends who work down there still...for now. I was talking with another member not to long ago how we should have a winter meet somewhere in the metro detroit area. There a ton of great bar and grilles in the area that would probably love to host a small group like us. Quote

Black2003SS Posted December 15, 2008 Report Posted December 15, 2008 Yeah, Riceeater is up by the new guy. He's northwest of Flint if I'm not mistaken. I'll make another thread discussing a meet this week. Maybe somewhere around Pontiac would be centrally located to give everyone a shot to make it. Quote
Hankg42 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Posted December 15, 2008 Nice truck. Welcome to the site. Quote
Berry Posted December 15, 2008 Report Posted December 15, 2008 Nice truck! Welcome to the SSS.com family! Quote
blackss461982 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Posted December 15, 2008 welcome to the site man the truck looks clean Quote

There a ton of great bar and grilles in the area that would probably love to host a small group like us. Not to sidetrack the thread, but how do you like the Corsa sport? I want something fairly loud and aggressive, but not so obnoxious that I will constantly be getting pulled over. Cops in my small town are real pricks about that. I'm already gonna get it for the dark windows... I would love to meet up with a bunch of you guys sometime. Pontiac/Auburn Hills area works great for me. Will feel kinda inadequate since I'm sure most of you have some pretty serious mods done, but gotta start somewhere and would love to get some ideas! Thanks everyone for the warm welcome! Quote
