For that price i'd just assume get a duramax and make it a twin turbo with everything upgraded and you'd probably still come out for less!!!

I don't want to buy it lol, for that money, I could deck my current truck 3 times over and put 1k+ power to the wheels.

Are they still making Classic II's? Really good looking rims IMO. My dream 1998 will have them :lol:

 

My Cooper ATP's are waiting for me, going to get them on Friday I hope. Eventually I want to do a review with pics and maybe a vid or two.

I have Cooper Discoverer HTP on my Tahoe and they are amazingly quiet. I would like something with more capablilty but the ride and noise on the HTP is so good I don't know if I would change. If only it wasn't an older design. Seems like no real market for a hybrid of capability and quiet exists. Although the Continental LX20 sounds decent from the.tire rack review.

 

Thursday I got a new machine polisher and red, yellow and black meguiars pads and I polished and waxed the Tahoe. Took that white.paint to blinding status.

Yesterday I took a couch to the dump. Then I returned cans and bottles, It was great.

 

 

Today I,

Changed the oil, pulled all the tires off (rotated) took all the brakes apart cleaned all the parts, scuffed up the rotors/drums/pads a little bit with some emery paper strip. I was shocked to find my el cheapo front pads from napa are still looking relatively new after 70,000 km when my originals barely lasted 70,000km not to mention the crap rotors that came from the factory (replaced 10,000km after the first pads changed the shaking was so bad)

I even tow a boat! Maybe it's cause I'm older and don't drive like a maniac, well thats what my dad's nieghbour said anyways.

 

Greased the 2 points in the front, took a look around, overall the truck looks great underneath. Noticed a little oil near the back area between the engine filter and plug area. Cleaned it, gonna see if it comes back as I had spilled some oil awhile ago topping the engine off.

 

I like the way the brakes feel after cleaning, scuffing and getting the dust out of there, especially the drums.

 

It started to dump rain as I was torquing the wheels, I'd been pissed if it happened with everything apart!

 

I have been thinking this truck has barely cost me anything other than normal wear, I don't know if I want to trade it in its so reliable! (140,000km) the other day.

One of the reviews I read said the ATP were quieter than HTPs.

 

 

I know that my AT/3's are very quiet.

MT isn't the only one making them at least, there are a few other brands that make one almost identical. I just liked the Classics the best out of those.

Eagle makes a nice set. I think the model is 058
