hot rod truck

If you would like I can take measurements off my truck or you can check my truck as I live in Indy. I'm on the north side (71st & Meridian) I have 2" drop shackles (6400 Belltech) and turned down torsion bars (5 turns) & realigned it. First mods I did to it back in 2004. Let me know

Mine is a DD. Just got back from Pittsburgh, PA. 800+ miles. Loaded with our stuff and 18 cases of Yuengling and some other beers in the bed. 75+ MPH and still got over 15 MPG. I'm sure i could have gotten better mileage as I've gotten as high as 18 MPG on road trips, no load and driving posted limits. But the horse always runs faster towards the barn. A couple of weeks ago, built a patio with pavers and used it to haul supplies for that project. Have had workers comment about putting stuff in the back. Always load and unload from the back, never the sides. Out with my Dad (83 years old and not a car guy) on this trip and had to whack it to get over a lane. My Dad's comment was "Wow, what kind of horsepower does this thing have?" That made my day. It's still a truck, and can be used as one. I actually like taking road trips in it because it's so damn comfortable, damn the gas mileage.

Remember the attorney from Chicago getting into an argument with Craig W and Brian (Cheezy Fries) @ Teddy's not realizing he was way outnumbered by SSS.com members.

Bob47,Imposstor SS, detjoe,vdrumright and zippy all been around since 2003. All from Michigan. Great guys. Met them at the infamous Zippy event held in Grand Haven,MI. Ahh the old days!!!!!

Damn Vince, I was talking to Bob or Stewart earlier this year (can't remember) and your name came up. We were wondering if you still had the truck and how you were doing. Hope all is well Still have mine with 82,000 on the clock,still with an Uncle Vince e-fan harness

I just did the 2005-2007 rotors,calipers & pads. I used Raybestos rotors, calipers & Akebono pads. Pleased with the results and the price wasn't bad $277.49 + tax FRC11713 right caliper w/bracket FRC11714 left caliper w/bracket $36.40 ea. w/ exchange 580279 Rotors $65.00 ea Akebono ACT1092 (O.E. supplier GMT 800-900) $74.69 I went this way because the truck is a DD and I wanted an improvement using O.E. parts that can be purchased anywhere and affordable. All bolt on no modifications The braking is improved, less fade, better pedal feel. Already had SS brake lines. I won't use drilled rotors on a DD as I've seen too many cracked rotors on cars/trucks with them. Slotted only rotors work well if you don't mind the price. Hope this helps whatever you decide.

I didn't see this Super Bowl Sunday but.... See the USA I do remember Dinah Shore See the USA Back in the Day Just thought it was neat that they brought back a jingle every kid & adult knew way back when

Have loved this song for many years

Got 48 out of 48 right. Couple were SWAG (scientific wild ass guess) Willys Aero Wing/ Kaiser Manhattan Desoto Firedome/ Chrysler New Yorker Old age does have it's advantage, just can't recall when.....

Great pics Who's who in the pics next to the vehicles? I recognize Hank (old guy like me) and Dan & Mark's trucks

Hope you guys got pics.... I'm enjoying a Yuengling Traditonal Lager right now Thanks for the condolences and thoughts. Ceremony was nice Military honors, 21gun salute, taps 30 of us rode to the funeral as per my brother-in-law's request.

Thanks Mark, Appreciate the thoughts and the I'll be doing the same

Guys, Have a great time and drink one for me I thought I might be able to make it, but I have a funeral to attend Saturday (brother-in-law, cancer, 59 years old) I will make it to Pittsburgh sometime this summer to see my dad, so I'll bring some back with me then. Not quite the same as a tour of "America's Oldest Brewery" but the beer is still good. I'll drink one Saturday afternoon with a toast to everyone in attendance

Mom & Dad must be proud...

Touche' Schuan Neil Young gets my vote. Willow Smith

Hate the Rebecca Black version Bob Dylan's version much better. Rumored to be a lost, unreleased version from the '60s
