Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
has every option ordered that was available for it.
6.2L diesel, third row seating, rear A/C, rear window defroster, full power group, upgraded cloth interior. even has the rare power mirrors option.
originally from Arkansas, i bought it from the Estate of an 82 year old man (who was the original owner). has a few dings & scratches, but being from a nice dry State, it's completely rust free. even the Gold Cadium plating on the exhaust hanger brackets is still there! you can even see the inspection chalk marks on the frame from the factory.
absolutely beautiful in my eyes. and judging from the positive response of many others, i'd say they like it too.
Engine/Drivetrain Modifications:
none yet. would like to put the Banks Side Winder system on it, w/the "Jake brake".
Suspension Modifications:
was planning to "dump it" this Summer, but a lay-off put that on hold (for now).
Wheels/Tires Modifications:
running the factory aluminum wheels. gonna have them polished over the Winter, and have the "bullet holes" painted to match the truck. can't decide whether to paint them dark blue to match the middle panel of the truck, or go with the lighter blue to make it stand out more.....probably gonna go with the lighter blue.
Interior/Exterior Modifications:
gonna install a 10" flip down DVD player (w/wireless headphones) for the kids. install it behind the factory overhead consloe (so they can sit in the third row to watch), and extend the factory console back to the rear A/C unit (have the console from my last 'Burb, same color). an of course, the entertainment has to have a sound system to go with it, so that'll be put in too (a lot of components sitting here just waiting.........)
