AMC RULES 36,945 #126 Posted February 19, 2013 Thank you Matt. Actually, the built 401 that currently resides in my Jav/AMX came out of a sun baked, J20 Jeep pick em up, I had shipped up here from Texas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tunahead72 2,341 #127 Posted February 19, 2013 Nope, not yet...but it is Chevy truck month. Definitely a good time to be looking at Chevy if you're interested. There's an "all-new" 2014 Silverado coming this summer, lots of "cash back" deals available on the 2013 models. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 38,928 #134 Posted March 9, 2013 When I went shopping for trucks, I could not believe the prices. 15 grand for a decent used ext cab and 28 plus for new depending on incentives.I bought my 4runner for 8600 and after selling my old truck it only cost me a grand including tax,title ect. Love driving it. It like driving my living room down the road. not much room for Horsie stuff though. Now you can stack a couple of horses in the back of that! Love GMC's Better styling! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 36,945 #135 Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) It's a new to me, used 2011 GMC Sierra K1500, just cracked 18K miles, got it enough below 20K to make for some easy payments. I'm happy with it, probably paid more than it's worth though...considering it's just a base model, with the 5.3 Vortec. Came set up with a two inch receiver for the hitch, beefed up front suspension for a plow, factory tow pkg, electronic trailer brakes, and a computer controlled, stability system to keep it going in a straight line...humm...considering all the black ice on the mountain, that just might come in handy. Providing...I can keep this one shiny side up, of course! Edited March 9, 2013 by amcrules00 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMC RULES 36,945 #138 Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) At the dealer...when I walked in...I thought I over heard them saying...here comes careful Craig. Wife says no...actually, they were saying...careful, here comes Craig. "Whatever dude...just get my keys!" Edited March 10, 2013 by amcrules00 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken B 3,116 #140 Posted March 11, 2013 Very nice new truck Craig, you are going to really enjoy the extra power and comfort over your S-10. (May she R.I.P.) I would have loved to have been able to have bought that J-20 off of you! I worked at a shop many yrs. ago that had one as their plow truck. I was the guy that cleared the lot when it snowed because all the other guys always managed to damage something in the process. (customers cars etc.) I loved that truck! It was a little loud (even for me) with the 4 speed and worn out glass paks! It was an animal! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
