The Tow Rig/DD

[TwiSSter418]

Well, figured I'd post some pics of my daily driver/tow rig since I just spent a few hours washing and waxing her. I'm beginning to hate black, but it just looks so good when it's clean!

bought some larger tires off a friend. Makes the truck look proportional, the stockers were so small.

...and just as I finished I hear thunder.. go figure! ;)

anyway, its a 2005 Silverado 6.0L 4wd 4.10s with a locker. Gas mileage makes me cry every time I think about it, but it sure does drag my crap around pretty good! :rockon:

Nice truck! :love: I'm loving those duelers the more I see them. Your truck would really benefit from a tint job, really make that black even blacker. (if at all possible)

yah I tried the precut ebay tint myself thing... didn't work at all... so i'll probably have it tinted darker sometime soon.... i did the 35% and its really barely noticeable... i loved the tint and wheels on your truck btw... looked nice! how dark is your tint? ever have any problems seeing a trailer if you tow stuff?

I believe it's 25% on the sides, 15% on the back. I honestly don't remember, but the back is pretty damn dark at night. You should look into something for yours. Oh and some black wheels on a black truck? Sex on wheels! :yup:

i know what you mean about keeping black clean...try living on a dirt road like myself

[TwiSSter418]

haha yah, I saw your thread. nice looking truck. my truck is your truck's big brother! ;) I'm actually originally from Oklahoma as well (edmond/guthrie), so I understand the roads... even the ones that are paved, usually have an obnoxious layer of red dirt all over them. :thumbup:

nice truck but it'd be better (power and MPG) if it was a diesel IMO

[TwiSSter418]

yah, I wanted a diesel! but at a $7000 option, the little 6.0L gets the job done. Not to mention the added benefit of being able to rip parts off the racecar if she breaks... ;)

hell you bought that truck just down the road from where i live. the guy that owns that dealership has a ton of badass cars

[TwiSSter418]

Yah, my uncle actually used to own it back when it was Frost chevrolet. ;) Last time I went up to visit, me and the new owner went racing in his new z06. That was sick... That guy's nuts... he's awesome! ;) I actually bought my SS from a local guy in hennessey who has a lumberyard. I think his name was Jack... would be funny if you knew him. I always kinda wanted to show him what I did to his pretty pewter SS... :drivin: Next time i'm down that way with the car I wanna meet up with all you local OK people and chill... :rockon:

sounds good man...my buddy tyler is from hennessey and has a ecsb with 6.0 swap and a big cam and some nitrous. pretty sick truck...he's done quite a bit of work on steve's cars...
