Detroit-diesel

Very well said, people don't "own" (when I say own i'm talking about driving it till the floor pans rust out) a truck because of price or a few extra horsepower. Real truck people own trucks because there dad owned one and that loyalty is what brings people back. Toyota is going to find it very hard to sell trucks without a group of people telling stories of how their Toyota did 20 years of hard farm work before it was parked behind the barn because there aren't any. They just don't seam to get that people don't buy trucks they "own" them, they get handed down (my first car was my dads old truck) and are subjected to wierd forms of torture (I drove my 93 Z71 into a pond to retrive a trailer that had rolled in buy accident).

I don't think i'll ever sell mine worth more to me than what I could get for it, plus I it's got a bulletproof 350. I think I got pic here some where.

My 1993 Sliverado has 230,000 miles on its used and abused, and it still runs strong some minor body rust but other than that its great truck. Its always parked outside, hauls trailers and pumpkins out of the field every year, pulls people out of the snow every year and has only failed to to start a few times (dead battery and dead starter from what I can remember). All in all this "are cars last longer business" is played by every car maker Chevy, Ford and Chrysler included.

Some one get Camino, it looks like he has the same dreams as him.

More good news. The Silverado is also Truckin' Magazines TOTY, if piles of awards can't sell trucks I don't what will.

First off im not a big fan of the car, and second who is naming Dodges new line up. I mean come on first Magnum, then Caliber, next Nitro now Avenger, little hint to Dodge you don't have to be edgy your styling cues took care of that. Whats so nirto about the Nitro you squared up a Jeep Liberty and threw some 20's on it and Avenger, no one killed the Charger its still around no need to hurt anyone.

I might me worng but doesn't pushing all that horsepower through a small motor mean increasing the compression ratio causeing parts more stress loads and make them prone to breaking. I really think I might be wrong about this but if im right a 6.0 pushing 367HP sounds better than a 5.7 pushing 381HP if im looking for a long lasting motor, hell my 93 Z71 is a 5.7 and its only got 320HP and it has 230,00 miles on it.

Maybe next time i'll just pour a little tussin on it.

It all started after I got back to work after going home for Christmas, my family lives in Detroit and I am a Coast Guard flight engineer in Kodiak Alaska. Well some one on one of my 6 (not joking) connecting flights gave me a cold. So 2 days after I got home the cold got bad so I went to go take some NyQuil, I poured 2 tablespoons into that plastic cup thingy and tried to drink it. Now is where the fun starts I have the NyQuil in my mouth and as luck would have it I cough unleashing a spray of red liquid out my nose all over my kitchen, it looked like I got shot in the back of the head. Then it got worse, I inhaled the rest on the NyQuil right into my lungs, so now im standing in my kitchen red spray all over the cabinets gagging and choking on NyQuil. Then like in most horrible contusions the funny part happened, my girlfriend hearing me making noises like a draining sink you know that sick sucking sound, runs into the room and thinking i'm choking trys to give me the heimlich. Problem is im 6'1" 185 and shes 5'9" about 115 soaking wet holding a brick. So she stars basically hitting me in the gut from behind, well I didn't need her to do that but I couldn't really talk so I pushed her away and coughed up the rest of the NyQuil into the sink. So after explaining what had happened to her we laughed about it, well she laughed I coughed some more. So long story short I really didn't sleep what night because I spent the rest of the night coughing. Well I don't really what you could post, but what do you think for my horrable but very funny story or do you have some thing funnier?

Well for ease of use and out of the box accuracy I love my Smith and Wessin .40 and at only $400 you can't go wrong. More power than my service Beretta and just as easy to control, my dad did buy me a .44 629 with a 6 inch barrel but I haven't been able to shoot it yet.

I got a good one. My dads boss has an H1 Alpha, his license plate, I8ASUV (I ate a SUV) To make it even better he had the front bumper painted to look like teeth.

It's funny that you say that, because the whole video they called the Miata Japanese when Mazda is owned by...wait for it...wait for it...FORD. My god it's like the civil war all over again.

I love the new front bumper, it's nice to see the Z71 with its own look rather than it just being a sticker. Now I hope the new bumper and satin chrome look is added to the pick-ups as well, if not that would just be upseting seeing as the Z71 name was built on the silverado. I still have people offer to buy my 93 Z71 ext cab.

Yeah time for a new truck. Anyone wanna buy my 99 duramax. I like the fact that chevy got smart and added the Z71 on all its trucks, so im guessing that you can go with the Goodyear AT-S's if you want and to think I almost ordered a 1500 VortecMAX Z71.
