yes yes. i know.
you are all thinking - what a sap ;-)

but really this truck has served me and all the owners before (just talked to the original owner today) so well that i thought this deserves some dedication !

if you ask me this thing is the last good thing to roll of the line at GM. ):h
222222.2. miles with a single IP replacement on warranty and some little stuff you guys that have followed my blog know about.

and yes yes, i know its not as fast, i know its not as powerful as all you guys boosting the crap out of your LB7s and Duramaxs, but with one thing I definitely have you all beat : bang for the buck :D

cause i bet you all have waaaaay more money in your truck then you should have. ;-)

So without further a do and without any shame in my game i wanted to post some pics of "das Kommandofahrzeug" - i still drive it almost everyday and it is still going strong and I hope I will be behind the wheel if it rolls over 333333.3 miles one day :thumbsup:

boy - i do love this truck ):h

it's really a mini cooper with a Chevy emblem on it... :D


And I know there will be pics of tomorrows 2222222's):h
 
I got 207 on mine and just started tearing it down to replace the engine. NOTE: engine n ot bad, with some blowby, glow plugs severely rotted into heads and i got a deal on a 599 block. So i took advantage of it!! I have one documented ip replacement around 160k. Everything else ORIGINAL! New engine to be studded, chipped, boosted, and rtr!!!
 
Damn Buddy, each time I see your pics I still wonder wether you're that tall or wether it is a dwarf burb :D

Matuva, he is that tall, I have met him in person, nice guy though, not at all the scowling person he looks like in the pic.
 
Nice 'burb, man. I liked it the first time I saw it, haven't changed my mind. :D

I'll be looking for the video!
