NIce truck. I like that color. Yours is the only one I've seen with the z80 rear sticker. What package is that? I've only seen z71 or nothing.

Beautiful truck. Cant wait to buy a new truck one day...right now with a baby on the way and saving for a house it will have to wait. The old F150 will have to work for a few more years.

A local GMC dealership by me puts Z60 and Z85 decals on their new trucks. Roth79's truck is the only other one that I have seen outside of this dealership with decals on the rear that are not Z71.

Oh yep closer inspection shows that to be true. Okay did some reading too;

  1. Z71

    •  
       
      The Z71 suspension is designed for off-road driving. It comes with 46-millimeter twin-tube, gas-charged shocks, a skid plate to protect the truck's underbelly, and a sensitive automatic rear-locking differential for added grip in muddy, and all-terrain environments. Chevrolet also offers a Z71 appearance package that includes 18 inch aluminumwheels, painted body color wheels and door handles, body color grille with a chrome insert, and improved shocks.

 

 

 

Z60

 


  •  
     
    Silverados with the Z60 suspension are said to focus on "street performance". The Z60 package includes 20 inch tires, and sits around an inch lower in the front, and two inches lower in the back than standard Silverados, because of the sport suspension. This model is designed to improve cornering and holding capabilities on the road.

 

Performance

 


  •  
     
    Both the Z60 and Z71 suspensions improve handling and steering slightly over the standard Z85 and Z83 models. The Z71 package offers a better overall ride quality as the improved shocks make for more controlled body movements. The Z60 is a stiffer drive in comparison.

Nice truck. I have the same cover I like the fact you have access to the bed when folded-up, unlike the hard shell covers.. congrats
