Got a call before I went to work to bring the dakota out to the shop and take everything that was mine out of it .

Well got to the shop and low and behold I had a 03 silverado sitting there for me .

I was next in line for a new vehicle (my dakota was a 94) and this was the one they got it is a 03 silverado 1500 base model reg cab long bed when i got it it had 8 miles it now has 52 with a 4.3/5spd No fancy crap on it at all :thumb: for 14K

So I guess when my g/f gets home she will $hit a brick when she sees this in the driveway .

Pics to come

Nothing wrong with a new work vehicle at all. My replacement cruiser, if I stay in the same car #, has been sitting in the back garage since Thanksgiving...we've still got 4 other cars to be changed over, and 6 more new cruisers due in next month. The radio guys took forever to wire it up due to working on getting computers in the other cars, so that was most of the delay. Now it's just a matter of getting a cage in it...which is about 1/2 done. We shall see.

Kinda shocked I didnt think they would replace my Dakota until next year

BTW I like this thing besides the exterior styling , the interior is great regular cloth split seats , vynil floor , just basic heating/ventilation , regular am/fm radio , manual locks/windows .

This thing is #### near perfect (except for the 2wd part )

Thinking of putting the 4.3 from this truck into my 97

Too bad you didn't get the 4.8L w/ the 5-speed.

Good luck and enjoy!

When she first seen it in the driveway she came in yelling at me saying how much is this gonna cost blah blah blah , then i told her it was the replacement for the dakota she said " oh ok then"
