bluebushwacker · September 7, 2010

Hey, my name is Matt and im from Tottenham, Ontario. but an hour north of Toronto.

Finally picked up a truck in March of 2010 after getting bickered by my friends who faded from the car scene and bought trucks, though I still kept my car:)

the bluebushwacker is a 2005 Sierra SLT Crew with a roof. just rolled over 173,000km.

Under 1000km ago I had the stock 17''s powder coated black by the company that did my rims for my M5, which resulted in a free job (long story), so the free job was used on the truck. the centre caps are stock, but with a bit of time I painted them to match.

a set of 305/65/ 17 BFG All Terrain K/0 were installed, finally making the truck look like a truck.

Since I bought it in stock form in March, I've upgraded with

windows tint

bug deflectors all around

35w 6000k hid low beams

high beam bulbs in the fogs

multi function light bar

painted 3rd brake light cover

painted calipers/drums

and most recent last week i purchased a 4mm billet grille shell.

As for maintenance, I've had to replace a coil, plugs and wires the rear rubber exhaust mount broke.

Then the usual steering wheel, radio, 4x4 and climate control lights are here and there. also a minor tear in the driver bolster.

I am having issues with the 4x4 system, I sometimes have the use of 4 wheel drive, other times I get no lights on the 4x4 control. Sometimes the truck starts in 4 low, others I get the red Neutral light. But always, Service 4x4 appears.. amazingly not during the few test drives I had with the truck.

I will post pics soon!

Cheers!
