The_aSSet Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I'm really considering trading my truck for a C5 Z06, its silver and has 106K miles. Gas mileage is killimg me, and ive always wanted a vette. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverado_ss_04 Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 i was looking at a blue c5 z06 few weeks back, it had 25k miles on it. i was so close to buying it but i really want a c6 z06 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_aSSet Posted March 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Id prefer a c6 z06 but i cant afford that, im really stuck, i love my truck to death but i hardly drive it cause it sucks gas like no tomorrow. I guess its mainly city mileage that kills me. BUT A Z06!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diggerdan11 Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Your not going to get that spectacular gas mileage in the Z06. So if that's your only real reasoning I would say no way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTMD8R_SS Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I would do it. It's probly worth more than your truck also, is it stock or modified? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatTallCanadian Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I have a hard time believing a vette gets better gas mileage, enough to make a trade on. On the highway yeah they'll make better mileage they are just so much more aerodynamic. If you need to do any city driving throw it out the door probably. Wouldn't maintenance be a ton more on the vette than the Silverado as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_aSSet Posted March 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I see what you mean, maybe i should wait til the C6's go down maybe ill have some good money by then and i can have a vette and my truck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatTallCanadian Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Well if I win the toyota matrix from roll up the rim, we can trade vehicles so you will have your fuel efficient car! and I will have 2 SS's to choose from depending on my mood that day I'm mostly just incredibly jealous you have the ability to even consider a Corvette. I can't fit in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatTallCanadian Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 i wish i couldnt fit in a vette lol then i wouldnt be tempted if i ever get rich im gonna build an awd corvette hahaha you should just buy a nissan GTR at that point! Apparently according to a thread on the viper forums, I fit in that.. So I'm gonna try and buy one after college! (yay pipe dreams) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawnss Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 you would get better than 13 in town my buddy has a 02 c5 z and it gets like 19 to 21mpg in town. he doesn't drive it like he stole it so that helps. on the highway he get like 25mpg.
