Hows it going. My names Wes. Im a familar face on the ZR2 Boards, as I know some of you frequent/have frequented there. (Blake, Jerry...)

 

Anyways I had an 03 1500 Z71, and figured with the rebates and incentives, and my truck falling apart, that its time to step up to the big boy league. I took delivery of an 08 GMC Sierra 2500HD on Monday night. SLE1 package, with driver comfort package (digital dual climate control, fog lights and somethin else.) Summit white, with Ebony interior. Ext cab. I love it, although I do notice its a LOT heavier then my 1/2 ton. Not liking the new 6spd though, takes a lot of foot power to downshift, so I end up bogging up hills, but when it down shifts my foots so far in, it takes off on me, but im getting used to it. I love the truck its great.

 

Mods im not going crazy on for now. It gets the front windows tinted saturday, then some vent visors and thats it for now. After the holidays, I will probally weld in a FM or a Magnaflow muffler, and once tax return comes in, Line-X or Rhino line, since I dont have any bedliner at the moment. (But I do have Gms new cargo management system, bunch of C channels lining the back and sides of the bed with adjustable tie downs.) And down the road, some bigger tires, those 245s look like donughts. And last, I want to buy the Sirius converter from TSSRadio.com, but they dont have the 2008+ converter available yet. It basically coverts the Xm to Sirius on the stock HU. I had the truck 2 days, and I think XM is horrible. the music channels are garbage, and they talk to much. So for now I will throw my Sirius reciever back in, and call Xm to see if they can credit my account the free 3 months or something, since I wont use the XM.

 

Anyways I hope to stick around, and learn the little mods and everyday stuff I can do, like I have learned on the past boards.
