2018 Sierra SLT 1500
« on: May 16, 2018, 06:57:29 AM »
Not technically a project but kind of since it doesn't exist yet.  For my Birthday yesterday I pulled the trigger checked the boxes and ordered a new GMC Sierra SLT with a 6.2L 420 HP engine.  I also got the max trailer package with a 3.42 rear gear and low first gear 8 speed auto trans.  From what I have read this thing will run a 14.0 or better in the 1/4 mile.  Not bad for a big ass truck!

Nice! Yeah, that's decent for a big guy like that. When does it arrive?

Not quite sure how long its going to take maybe 8 weeks?  Once I get the order number I will see if I can track it internally.

She is finally here. I picked it up yesterday and I must say it is really sweet. It has enough power to spin the tires rolling at 20 mph lol!

That's a nice looking truck! Seems perfect for you and your family. What's the plan with the old truck?

That truck looks pretty sweet.  Great buy.  I look forward to seeing it in person.

An RX-7 is like having a slut as a gf! She will love you, but she will also screw around with the guy at the parts store, most of the local cops, your insurance agent, your apex seals, your bank account and your credit card!!!

The old truck is getting cleaned up and sold.  It will make a great truck for someone.

And yeah it was a great buy. I got $16,000 off MSRP!
