New Tow Vehicle!

[12secSS]

We just purchased a 1999 GMC Sierra SLT extra cab (3-door), pewter, w/camper shell, regular bed (don't think it is a short bed), 5.3L Vortec engine (mini LS1), auto, 4x2, ebony leather, 3.73s. This thing is very nice and will be used to tow our trailer and race car. Not a problem with the optional GM Tow package (5000lbs rated capacity). I already have plans for it, a quiet performance exhaust (possibly Dynomax, MagnaFlow or Gibson), cold-air kit (saw some nice affordable ones on eBay) and a heavy duty B&M Oil Cooler for the trans. Here are the three pics I took of it when we picked it up:

Welcome aboard!

And by the way the truck is a shortbed.

It is? Hmm, I saw a short bed at the same dealer and it was smaller than this one, although I just saw a long bed and mine is not that long. Oh well, it is a ncie truck none the less ... and thanks!

It looks like an 8 ft box

 

Nice clean truck btw

Its a 6.5 box or short bed. The short short bed you likely saw was on a half ton crew.

 

Nice truck and welcome.

Thanks!

 

I looked up the RPO codes and it says:

E63 - Fleetside / Wideside Pickup Box (6 1/2 Foot And 8 Foot)

What does that mean?
