  1. I'd still take my shiftable transfercase, I still have yet to be impressed by awd setup. I see them as glass. They work ok in cars and suvs but I'd still take a low range t case. The ss is really the only awd truck that I know of. If it was a 1500hd id like probably a little more, but it does what I need it to. I always like to drive around in 2wd, only need 4wd maybe like 1% of the time if not less. The turning circle of anything awd and 4wd is terrible also. I'm still trying to get the ropes of GM, I still think the still between 2007 and 2014 is junk. Iv always been a ford guy for trucks, iv owned a few mopars and I think those are the worst.
  2. I don't think an ss would, but each there own. I'd put money on it my dad's f150 would walk circles around my ss off roading. My buddies newer z71 I'd be willing to bet it would also. A lowred truck with nothing to protect the transmission or t case, little suspension travel. It's a performance truck not an off road truck....
  3. If never been a fan of the electronic 4x4 or auto 4x4, It does make going 4low easier.
  4. Snow is a little different then Off-road. My rsx with snow tires plowed through snow with not problems of getting stuck even my crown vic would...... Take it through mud and I bet it would get stuck. Even with great tires in mud you will get stuck you need ground clearance. Id trade my awd for 4x4.
  5. The truck will just go into emergency mode and it will add more fuel. Could possibly burn the o2 sensors out. If you get cheap headers that don't match how the oem o2 sensor reads it will burn the sensors also. I went through 6 on my 350z before i just went back to oem manifolds

    Pattern

    Exact specs are on tirerack
  7. When I used to be in the Honda game left only a few years ago, a group of low life's had a tow truck. They never did get caught. Seemed like every week somebody's Honda or acura was getting stolen. One had it on camera of two guys stealing a car. Dosent take them long. Theifs know the games if they want it they will get it.
  8. I've seen a few people talk about this now, I google it and it's a internet thing..

    Rims

    I see the difference now but honestly I don't think anyone would ever notice, or say anything. Unless they tried to sell them to someone who knew what they were. I still can't get over what the sell for, used forged rims struggle for those prices.

    Rims

    The ugly oem rims go for that?! Wow that's volk / rays wheel money.

    Rims

    But you live in la I don't think you'll find ones that actually came off a ss with tires without paying a lot and for shipping. Id sell mine but I don't think you'll pay 1k plus shipping for them with tires that are in great shape.

    Rims

    If he wants oem like I said they are on the 07 to 10 Chevy trucks and suvs. http://www.jegs.com/i/OE-Wheels/494/7387703/10002/-1

    Rims

    Cheapest if seen them go for new is about 210.25 with free shipping, just gotta look around jegs has them for the price above and they are also on 07 to 10 Chevy trucks and suvs. Nothing special about them chrome plated aluminum 20x8.5 +31mm and iv seen them listed with a +23mm and +27mm. If you're dropping 800+ I'd just go with some good looking aftermarket rims, tire rack is a good starting point.

    Ecu core

    I'm able to get a core put of a 4.8, I'm fairly sure it will work for a mail in tune. But I like to know it will work in my ss I'd like to keep my factory ecu and use the one out of the 4.8 for the tune.
  15. Nope, if I wanted a truck with that power I'd get a hellcat or demon
  16. Well GM and Chrysler did go bankrupt. I'd take a raptor for a new sport truck, and mustang gt for sports car. Ford announced the new raptor will be around I think I saw 45k range, and the new gt starts around 32k.
  17. They do make dog dna tests...
  18. What's different from a normal ss? I see different head rests, and the sun roof. One thing if you really want to sell it put it on autotrader. I gave up buying just about anything off craigslist.
  19. ​It might be still these cause as id see it like others have said, Its 12+ years old and they want 19 to 20k. Could get something newer that's 4x4, the ford 3.5 twin turbo eco boost is a lot faster then the chevy 6.0 ss, 0-60 in 5 to 6 seconds... 20k for an older truck the crowd is probably thin. Iv never been to cali nor do I really wanna, so I cant really see what people drive there. I seen down in Florida a few months ago everyone drove a diesel truck for some reason. Those stepp motors on the gauges that's probably why also. It's being the temp gauge and not being able to monitor that could be a reason it's still for sale. If the head got cooked yeah then its not worth much.
  20. Here's what I see as completely normal and their didn't turn me off the same on mine. I couldent use my actual pic as nothing is working right for me right now but here is normal and then bad normal nothing to stress about bad not drivable anymore, this is really common on jap trucks and Toyotas get it the worst.
  21. It looks like a cut and copy, some of the information isn't right. Am I the only one who noticed it's in euro specs.
  22. That's rusty? Haha I have yet to see a car that doesn't have surface rust on the frame rails. Litteraly nothing to ever worrie about on that. It won't spread, cab corners and rockers are the rotting points for trucks. It's a full frame truck iv seen early 90s semis with over a million miles that look no different then my 07 crown Vic did on the frame rails. The jap trucks are they only trucks I k ow that have issues with frames rusting to where it's an issue. Just cause the state gets snow doesn't mean they put crap on the road for it to melt ice, colorado only puts sand down while here we put a chemical that will rust anything metal if you don't wash it. In mn we don't do emissions testing the registration bs ether so some states won't show that if they are not required. I'd check the dealer ratings more I see they are a 3 out of 5. I wouldn't give them my money with that rating. If you like it go for it but I see just about stealer-ships as crooks and liars just to get a sale.
  23. If you're looking for factory 20s, newer Chevy ltz trucks look just like the ss wheels might even be the same.
