My cruise cable used to be a wire hanger... lol. Every bump I hit would make it rev lol... I didn't use it often. My Accel. has enough resistance that my leg doesn't hurt when driving long distances. On another note... an 04 Silvy has NO gas pedel resistance... I spun tires in that thing all the time. lol

Oh, and I painted some things pink today... I was bored... lol

Decided on the rims I'm getting... chrome reproduction Tahoe LTZ rims with no logos on the center caps... should be awesome, they're all mine once I pay off the truck... I'll probably end up spending about 2 grand on Sadie by the time I'm done doing what I want... and I want better sound in the cab too! ARGH



You could talk me into the silver too though... decisions decisions, silver = easier to take care of after the camp road...

vn man (personally I'd take the top ones) I wish I only spent $2000 on my ride lol
I like the DC1's, vn rims in my view, got the black & contrast etc... but I'm moving in another direction at the moment. Hope all works out & they add the BLING you want.

& Sadie?... my blazer is all boy, my buddy lol, boat is the same way, well one boat is, other is Ms Reliable AKA "Inheritance" my friend & I got her for a good price, fixed her up & it was all on inheritance money (on his part & mine)<--- sad to say though, but in my mothers memory & him for his father, they're smiling as we fish!

i'd say the non chrome. i'm not a chrome guy so. yeah, i'll find out tomorrow whats wrong with mine. i usually drive cruise control also but when you need to pass someone and the truck doesn't downshift into power you get kinda worried ya know?

2 grand would be nice. cover the cost of repaired/new trans and some extra fun for me

Installed, wired and tested my 7-blade trailer connector...and more importantly, found the elusive wires I need to install my brake controller! After banging my head into the wall half of yesterday, it felt good to accomplish even this minor task.
