Bingo. I won't even look at a truck without steering wheel controls, digital climate and buckets/bose. Can't have leather either lol. I'm picky. I need a 06 and 07 classic 1500hd to complete my set. 05 up can have a sunroof so I am looking for a sunroof equipped 06 or 07.... with the afformentioned options as well as 4.10 gears. I will have all 5 years represented soon enough.

I find it so odd that a clean 00-02 still attracts me way more than any gmt900 ever could, and than the K2's currently do.   I see a well kept black 99-02 Silverado every 2 weeks that looks identica

I beg to differ on ALL of that.. The build quality of the 900's will never be as solid as the 800's. With fuel economy requirements and such, the thinner and lighter materials make it impossible. In m

I have an 04 Silverado LT with 102k that I got in 06 and haven't had any problems with it. Just rebuilt the entire front end and did brakes last year. I want a new one but love not having a payment.

Pass lol. You can't give me a 99 to 02 lol. Well you can but I won't keep it. Really I need an 03 2500 light duty as well as they built both that year too. I have a thing for 1500hd's okay.... only reason my 04 is a 2500 light duty is because they didn't build a 1500hd model in 2004.

That Spiral Grey. Best color of the 800 series. The hood guard needs to go, and the 03 and 05 need to be repainted to Spiral Grey. I would turbo my 6.0 if I didn't have emissions testing

Bug deflector will go but it requires more 3m if I want paint left on my hood. And it needs color matched handles and mirror caps. My white trucks are just fine white lol. The 03 will get the color match treatment too. Its in the process of getting e fans, mit tube, 08 airbox, 250 amp alternator, new power steering box, cooler lines and a tune. Be ready for Nebraska lol.

I have bugs. My massive tranny cooler catches them. Why are you doing the 08 airbox? Do you do the 08 maf as well? And what the hell is in Nebraska

They really do help keep the bugs off. Comparing my old 1990 to my buddies' 90's Chevy's that didn't have them you could see mine had way less crap on it. And my 2006 with the bigger deflector and cowl hood I hardly get any.

07 up has a bigger opening in the side of the box than the 99-06. I cut the side of the inner fender opening to match it. 08 maf is useless lol. If I want a card style maf I will get one that is a larger diameter than my original one is. Nebraska has a big collector car auction from a Chev dealer that shut down. Lambrecht Chevrolet. Its a 1200 mile each way drive for me.

All this talk about 03s makes me want to take mine off the market and keep it. I thought I was the minority when I saw that newer trucks didn't have carpeted door cards. I only wish I had a real 4 door. I'd really like to give the rockers a color matched LineX treatment.

Guess I like that photo angle.

Buy mine, lol. 4 doors...... and a 6 liter lol.

 

I say that I think jokingly anyway. That 03 I have is clean, really clean to the point I don't think I can let it go.

      I could be interested if they axed cylinder deactivation and at least have a button for stop start. I’m sure the HP numbers will be higher. I would want a longer warranty to help build confidence. I’m a less is more guy as I get older. A V-8 work truck model would be my choice. I know a few outfitters for custom additions I prefer.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Zane · Posted

      It's official. GMC pulled the covers off the next-gen 2027 Sierra 1500, and we got the first official look. Full breakdown here: https://www.gm-trucks.com/next-gen-2027-gmc-sierra-1500-v8-trim-changes/   The quick hits: SLE and SLT are dead. The new core retail trim is just called "Elevation". Two new V8s, a 5.7L and a 6.6L built with high-performance Corvette architecture roots. No horsepower or torque numbers yet. The 2.7 TurboMax finally ditches the old gearbox and gets the 10-speed automatic. AT4X moves to larger standard 35-inch tires with front and rear e-lockers, Multimatic DSSV dampers, and heavy-duty Jounce Control Dampers. Over 60 inches of combined display on Denali Ultimate and AT4X, complete with a motorized articulating center screen and an adaptive passenger screen. Seven simplified trims across the entire model line to clean up ordering confusion.   So let's get into it: New 5.7L and 6.6L gas V8s with custom active exhaust tuning and a Corvette connection. Is this the exact engine lineup half-ton traditionalists have been begging for? Purging the iconic SLE and SLT names after all these years to lean entirely on Elevation as the high-volume core. Bold move, or a mistake? That motorized articulating 16.3-inch screen that slides up to reveal a hidden dashboard vault. Awesome mechanical theater, or does it make you nervous about long-term durability? Physically lowering the headlamps in the front fascia to improve road courtesy and stop blinding oncoming traffic. Smart real-world engineering, or does it hurt the truck's aggressive stance? What trim are you putting your name down for on day one? Drop your first impressions below.

      My overnight hospital stay turned into five.  I developed a post operative fever and an erratic  heart rate.  A blood clot in the lungs was the culprit.  This is apparently a common post surgical complication and easily remedied.   I was the youngest in a four bed ward and a Doctor with a Geriatric specialization was in charge of my care.  All of the nurses were good and some were outstanding at dealing with old people.  It was very evident that my age triggered a different level of care!  My advice to any senior going for a hospital stay is to have a trusted family member advocate visible.  If not, you will still be well cared for, but you may discover that your voice  isn't as strong as it once was!
