From Ford To Chevrolet (and From Black To White)...

KSims1868 · May 24, 2010

I'm proud to say I have SWITCHED from Ford to Chevrolet...and couldn't be happier so far.

Several items to ponder about.

1. This is my first ever brand new vehicle - what a cool feeling

2. I have been a devout Ford F250/F350 4x4 owner for the last 7-8 years

3. My last F250 was a black 4x4 crew cab 6.4 diesel

4. New truck is Chevrolet 4x4 crew cab 1/2 ton

I'm the proud new owner of a 2010 Chevrolet Silverado LT1 4x4, crew cab, Z71 (white) and I love it. Several things brought me back to Chevrolety after a LONG period of Ford loyalty. First let me say that I wish I had NEVER sold my 2001 Ford F350 7.3 diesel. That was a heck of a truck and selling it was a mistake. I wish Ford still made the 7.3 PSD. If they did...I might not be a Chevrolet owner today. I also will announce now that I will NEVER (ever) own a black truck again. NO WAY.

I digress...

Can't wait to learn all about these new Silverados. I have always said if I ever stepped out of the diesel truck world back to a half-ton...I'd be going back to Chevrolet. Just never liked Ford half-tons.

I need to take some pics and post them up, but for now the truck is all stock. I do plan to add a leveling kit, some black wheels (XD Rockstars probably), and 33" tires eventually. But for now I'm just enjoying that new-car smell for the 1st time in my life.

Seems like a great forum. Glad I found it.
