My New Ride
1997 Chevy Silverado. The price in the window was $7980 and I got it out the door for $7000. It does have high miles, 161,000 but it will tow a broke down DSM.  I'm going to take the topper off tomorrow.

Re: My New Ride
Yep nice truck, it was the first one we looked at today. Clean ass interior and the outside is really nice ass well with just the normal little dings that trucks get. And yeah that topper has to go otherwise people will think you are borrowing dads truck.

Re: My New Ride
Nice. That's a good lookin' truck. I agree about the topper too. They're great to throw stuff back there, but they do look better without.

Re: My New Ride
We have a tow dolly already Enes so that won't be an issue. Now we just need a trailer to tow our snowmobiles.

Re: My New Ride
I have a '97 Mach Z 800, by no means stock. Used to grass drag it. Sold alot of mods stuff off it and gonna convert it as much as i can, back to stock to try and sell this winter. Had a tad bit over 200hp.

Re: My New Ride
So far I love it! I'm just scared to see what it get's for mileage now that gas is so expensive. The main reason I bought was to tow my sled, which is a 98 MXZx 440LC, and tow all the cars that Jet buys.

Re: My New Ride
Looks like a nice truck. Just be careful. Once everyone finds out you have a truck, they all become your best friend. Especially the ones who only drive cars with little hatchback space. |

Re: My New Ride
Need some 38 inch tires and a 6 inch lift, but with that aside its a sharp truck, just keep it on 4 wheels.

Re: My New Ride
That thing will run forever. I just sold a mint 1996 Suburban with 180k miles for $4800. There wasn't a scatch or chip anywhere, it towed perfectly.

Re: My New Ride
I think the only thing I will do to this truck is have Jet make me new exhaust and maybe a Jet Chip. Thanks for all nice comments!
