Yes, I Really Do Own

[NorCal57]

a Silverado. I was finally able to take a couple of pics even though it's pretty dirty right now. 2003 Silverado 1500, 5.3, 3.73's, 35x12.5x17, 6" suspension lift, rear air bag suspension, flowmaster, 4 wheel disc, all kinds of good stuff my other truck didn't have.

Here ya go-

 

 

 

I bought it as it sits except for a few minor improvements.

 

This is what I replaced....my wife asked why I would bother to get a new truck as they look the same. Why change what you like?

That's a nice rig. Love the wheels.

Nice rig. Love the Leer shell. Had that exact model (100 XQ) on my last truck and have one ordered for my current one.

[pwall]

Nice truck! (both of them)

Nice truck! 35's with 3.73's can't be much fun though...

[dietz4ibanez]

I like the truck! As for the wives, its just one of those things that the will never be about to get in our heads! Woman always think backwards!

[Guest Riggs]

it probably isnt that bad... 4.10's would be a lot better though

[s-ten]

thanks for all the kudo's!

The 35's with 3.73's really isn't all that bad. I was real concerned about that possible issue since we have a boat to pull around during the summer months but it pulls just fine. I was even surprised when I put it in towing mode that the tranny shifted into OD right about 64 mph and stayed there.

The old truck had a 5.7 TBI (2500)with 4.10's and 31" tires and to be honest, this '03 pulls much better...100 more hp with the Vortec is probably a good reason. I'm also a contractor, not that I always tote around a bunch of heavy stuff but once in while it happens and this truck definitely holds it's own.

I'm really liking the 12/13 mph around town and 20+ out on the highway as opposed to 8/9 and 13 respectively. I guess you could say I'm doing my part in conserving fuel

[Christine-C.S.C]

People keep saying this 20 + on the highway. I've never seen a truck that could do this especially not one with 35 tires on it. I'm running 3.73 gears and a flawless mat. routine with 33 inch wheels ; I might get 16ish if I baby it.
