My stuck is at my parents house because they needed to use it this week, And my Mom is a very quiet nice lady, you know the sweet grandma type? anyway i get a call tonight from here saying she had just drove my k5 to Lowe's for some ice salt. Now my 89 K5 has a 4" lift 31s and is red with magna flow exhaust. Loud tall and beastly.

Yeah so she calls to tell me that driving that was the most fun she had driving in her whole life!! Wow, Only this truck ha?

She drives a new Toyota, my dads Mercedes, and my Twin turbo Z on occasion, and this old 700 dollar truck is the one that made her happy. Wow Just WOW! Shes got a little redneck in her. hahaha

 

Haha that's great

 

I'd never let my parents drive my truck.
Great story though lol

 

LOL.... pictures... please... next time you are there... I can just picture a smaller older lady with a HUGE grin sitting in a k5

 

i love driving old beaters. a rusted ol k5 blazer has more class then a new benz

 

My parents dont even ask to drive my blazer cause A: they know the answer will be no B: they dont want to risk messing it up

 

Same here. They barely even ride in it

 

this forum gets stranger by the post count.......sounds like a cool k5.......

 

while neither my Mom or Dad has driven my Blazer, my Mom used to use my Jimmy whenever i was @ her place, doing work on their cars (family mechanic ), and she always said she luv'd that it was stick. she's also driven my Dart a few times (she can lay 1st & 2nd with the best of them! )

hell, she used to race my Dad's Chevelle when i was a kid.

and my wife wonders where i get my need for speed from!

 

my grandma drives tractors on my dads farm. shes 70 something. its kinda like this. its just funny you see this big john deere coming down the road and an older lady driving it pulling wagons. she gets alot of double looks.
