Just like it says.

Wife didn't like the Balt at all....I wasn't too fond of it either. Now we have a Cruze.

 

Its a much nicer car...and that little turbo is cool....its so tiny. :lol::lol:

 

 

I wanted the Camaro....she wouldn't go for it. :P:lol::lol:

She really likes this car though...so I'm getting a Quad :P

 

 

 

Anyway, heres pics

Have you said "Why drive when yo can cruze" to anyone yet?

Ahhhhhhh...........NO :P:lol::lol:

But the wife may have.

 

Its a very nice riding car, its much quieter than the Cobalt. Less things rattle, and just all around better feeling on the road. It feels way more sure footed around corners and at speed. The A6 is nice too...although, the adaptive shifting thing has to learn how you drive first, and could take up to 2500km to properly correct with two drivers.

 

I did test the RS Package with the "sport" suspension and 18" wheels....5G for no handling advantages...the wheels look nice, but we can get nicer ones aftermarket for less than 5G...It did have a spoiler and Ground effects though... :lol::lol::P

 

Over all, I like the car...as much as a truck guy can like a car.

 

 

As for the Quad, me and a buddy are going to look at an 08 Can-Am DS450. They have 3 new ones in the crate not even assembled for a ridiculously low price. That should have lots of power to get me in trouble....If I get this the Suzuki is gone...more fun to be had on a Quad than a bush buggy anyway.

There's never a happy medium.

 

Either you get dumped on, or you get nothing.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By JimCost2014 · Posted

      If what you are doing works, keep doing it:   4LO (Four-Wheel Drive Low) should only be used in extreme low-speed, high-torque situations such as deep mud, heavy snow, steep rock crawling, or extreme inclines/declines, and you must follow the correct engagement procedure to avoid drivetrain damage. Intended Use Cases Deep mud or snow where traction is extremely poor and you need maximum torque to get unstuck Trucks Only+1. Rock crawling on steep, uneven terrain forum.fullsizechevy.com+1. Extreme inclines or declines where you need to control speed and maintain traction solutionsphere.blog. Heavy towing in low-traction conditions (e.g., deep sand, ice) carclubsusa.com.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By rdonarski · Posted

      Hi,   I work a steep boat landing that has patchy blacktop going down the hill and soft sand/gravel at the bottom. Due to low water levels, it's not always possible reach the blacktop. I've had to help several people get out this year already and with fall coming, I'm anticipating more. I always use 4L. There was a gentleman there today with a 2500 HD (actually 2 - him and his son both have them) and they were trying to get his son's wake boat out. This gentleman swears that you should use 4H in the soft gravel. Says he was a farmer and you always use higher gear when stuck. I was wonder what your thoughts on this are? If I'm wrong, it would be good to find out before things get busy.

      Roll up bed cover experiences

      By Bill Lemmond · Posted

      Looking for feedback from users of roll up aluminum slat bed covers who have had it for more than 3 years. I prefer the aluminum slat style over supported vinyl covers due to security and the capacity to support a light load. The slight loss of bed opening when rolled up is not an issue. Presently have BAK Revolver the "industrial grade vinyl overlay" on mine is shrinking & coming loose at the rear and on both sides in addition to cracking at some of the folding joints. Truck lives outdoors in NC latitude. Can't justify the steep price to replace it with another one if that's the expected lifespan. Do you have a better alternative?

      BAK Revolver bed cover

      By Bill Lemmond · Posted

      Thanks, your last sentence is the root of my problem, outdoors truck and southern latitude = UV overload. Looking at replacing with Rough Country powder coated aluminum slat roll up model.

      Tire fitment

      By JakeD · Posted

      I’m looking at putting a lift in my 2024 gmc sierra 1500 elevation trim, has anyone had any luck with fitting a bigger tire under the rear for a spare?? Was gonna go with a 4 inch zone lift Also what wheel and tire size setup are you all running? Wondering if I can get away with keeping around the stock size a 33 inch, and just get some new wheels to have enough back spacing then I can just keep my original spare tire I have under the truck now.
