Yes, I've been lurking for awhile. I've enjoyed the site and have put many mods to use. I'm a firefighter/emt (hence the love of red trucks) in Alabama! I think the Quadrasteer feature is as good as sliced bread & I hope they bring it back someday(on something...). Some of my mods: Amsoil-everything + Dual Bypass Oil Filters(9/qts total), Corsa Touring, K&N FIPK Air Intake, Fitch Fuel Catalyst, Westin Chrome Wheel-to-Wheel Bars, Westin Sportsman Chrome Grill, Billet Grille, V-LED DRL's, Line-X, Yokohama Geolandar A/T-S 265/75/R16/D, Century Cap....

Beautiful!! I love the RED. Do you have a pic with all 4 wheels turned??

 

Any from underneath of the rear axle??

 

In these photos the rears are turned to the right and the front to the left, its hard to show how truly awesome the turning is with photos. The rear axle & fenders are wider then standard trucks. At speeds under 40 they turn opposite of the fronts at higher speeds they turn in the same direction, up to 12 degrees. The turning radius is cut to 35/ft, the same as a honda civic.

Here are a few video's.

Nice truck! I remember the first time I saw a Quadrasteer truck (didn't know about it), the driver started to U-turn in a very tight spot and I thought "this clown is never gonna make it" while watching closely...he turned just fine...and then he looked at me...I'm sure he was thinking "eat that, a$$jole!" it's an amazing feature...

 

Enjoy it!

A friend of mine has the GMC Denali with Quadrasteer, he loves and says he'll never get rid of it. Has 64,000 miles on it and not one issue with the steering. It was an idea that was ahead of it's time, you don't see many of them because I think people were afraid of the technology behind it. Parking lot manuvers are a piece of cake in those trucks!

Nice truck! I almost bought a Quadrasteer,but the $5,000 price tag at the time was just too much for me to afford.

Nice truck. Almost bought one of those back in 06, but like said above I was afraid to because something might go wrong and cost alot to fix. Wish I would have got it though it was a sweet truck!

I don't think I've ever seen a Silverado with Quadrasteer before. Looks good. I've seen those Delphi videos before and thought what an awesome technology that is for a truck.
