Finally got a couple goodies on my truck. So far I've got an Airaid cai, MBRP exhaust, Mcgaughys 2/4 drop, topped off with a set of Foose 22's. It's really starting to come together.

5.3 or 4.3? Really like the look of the truck as-is, even with the black plastic up front. If it's a 5.3, would you mind posting a video of this exhaust? I've been eyeing it for awhile but can't find a good video of it on the 5.3.

I'm gonna paint the bumpers and that black piece under the grill, looks a lot better with the black on the grill imo. I've got the 5.3 I'll try to take a video of the exhaust, but I don't know how well my phone will represent the real sound. I absolutely love it. Nice and quiet cruising on the highway and at idle once the engine warms up its a nice low rumble, but when you put your foot in it it wakes up with a great sound without being obnoxious.

Sweet trucks everyone! Really like the blue trucks. I also really like the lowered 2wd trucks, makes me want to get my '88 on the fast track but I'm still saving pennies for an Ls3 for it.

 

I put these double wall, powder coated tips on Friday (will get welded soon) and I have an intake I'll probably install tomorrow.

Sounds like exactly what I'm looking for.

Here's a crappy video I took of the exhaust...dont think it does the exhaust justice, but taking good audio is hard to do

Love the center console in the regular cab....how easy was it to get the parts to swap it out ?

 

What kind of cover did you get ?

I work at a GM dealer so I just grabbed a vin off a crew cab that had the same interior trim color as mine and ordered the parts off that.

 

The swap took about an hour and a half still working on getting a few of the USB ports to work but other then that it's fully functional.

It turned out perfect, it really does look factory !

 

I have always thought they should offer that when you buy a regular cab.

 

I had a 90 Silverado that had it from Chevrolet, but it was low back buckets seats...not these like today.

Just got mine last weekend, i'm still getting used to driving a truck but so far it handles great. Brand new 2016 silverado 1500 with the 5.3 v8 and the blackout package

I haven't opened up the throttle, but even keeping it under 2000 rpm you can feel the power, I love having a v8
