Mason1000 Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Hey guys new to the site I have a few questions before I bite the bullet and buy a Silverado ss. First question. Does anybody on here put baby seats in the back of there ss? If so is there adequate room? As I have a two year old and I'm looking into a fun hobby for us to start enjoying together. I have had quite a few fast cars mostly camaro and ta's and even an srt8 charger. but the cars never have enough space to take anything with you that's why I'm looking into a fun truck.

diggerdan11 Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 It should fit, but that can depend on the size of the seat. I know there are plenty of people on this site who have. There is more room than a Camaro I can tell you that much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mason1000 Posted July 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 I want to sell my lifted diesel mega can dodge and pick up a "sport" truck and build it for the power tour next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70chevy03ss Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 I hated putting a baby seat in the Ss. Pain in the butt and not a lot of room. But good luck on ur decision. Also if you get an SS I hope you have deep pockets. Once the mod big hits you it's over! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mason1000 Posted July 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Oh it's bit hard!!! nothing I own stays stock ever lol I want this for fun mostly so it will get slammed with a 408 or be a turbo motor with a 4l80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jddmj Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 A crew cab clone maybe the route to go for you. Just saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fourtraxjay Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Got my first SSS when my boy was 2. The full bore baby seat fit fine. He loved the sss so much he pleaded I buy another one when the first one burnt. Now that he's 7 and nearing the end of the 'booster seat' phase, he still has tons of room and adores the truck. The booster seat clips in and out in seconds. The full bore baby seat took more effort to re and re but they aren't in those very long anyway. Needing a baby seat is no reason to rule out the silverado ss. And the mutual love of the truck sure adds to the father son bonding. I mean my boy picks out every fake SS we see and explains to me why he can tell its not a real one. And has also learnt that we keep the supercharger a secret from strangers......lol. When he see's new trucks he says he like ours better cause it has "angry eyes"and looks meaner haha Just be careful, if you son is like mine, you'll be married to the truck. I can't even think of getting rid of it now or I'd crush him. As a bonus though, bad behavior is easily corrected with threats of using my DD with him rather than the truck.

Mason1000 Posted July 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 That is all great info I am looking into a already done ss right now. It's a forged 408 with a whipple on it and is very clean. But I am almost at that point with my little guy and my ram 3500 he loves it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mason1000 Posted July 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Guys I have become completely obsessed with getting a sss since I have recently sold my 81 z28 and my 2010 srt8 charger. I now only have my lifted 08 ram 3500 to drive it makes stupid power but gets boring to drive as it is a mega cab and huge!!! I am looking at three right now one is completely done with a 408 and a magna charger on it with a 4l80 in it but is very expensive. And the other is all stock mint shape with a blown trans for $6700. I would like to do a turboed 408 with a six speed conversion on the truck but I am not sure if I am willing to lose the awd to do it. Also what would a chrome magna charger setup be worth with a spare snout? As I would like a turbo or a pro charger because the magna won't support what I would like to do.
