  9. the nexy day i recieved a call from progressive that they have my truck and i need to return the rental....all excited i thought wow the body shop took care of my issues that fast?i was getting wood just thinking ill be back in my SSS after a month...well there she was shiny,detailed looking good.Mr progressive wants to close out the rental and wants me to sign off on the truck before i looked at it...i said lets go outside before we close this truck out..well the windshiled still has chips(he said from road chips not concrete falling from 75 feet!) the mirrors still not done(he said road chips) weatherstripping not done(he disagreed from powerwashing) and the one S on the emblems was 1/4'' lower(he'll fix),the headlights have small white rings from the concrete splatter that was powerwashed off(he said road chips again)then i climb in the bed look at the roof and asked Mr Progressive if he has a surfboard 'cause there were 10 foot waves on my roof! I dont want any plastic on my roof because there was no plastic there b4 the concrete hit my truck! i want a new roof!!Of course he disagreed like i was taking the $ out of his pocket! i want the SSS to pre existing condition I paid 30000 for a 03 SSS in december but she was very clean so i didnt mind paying over the blue book. so i left in Mini me not feeling wood anymore putting along calling my agent ....i'll let ya know how this goes.................................
  10. been without electricity for 3 days here due to storms...got the call the other day from the body shop to come and inspect the SSS..i pulled in the lot...she's a beauty...shiny and black...but what is the first thing i see? the SS emblems are on UPSIDE DOWN!!! this is the dealer here not Earl Shibe! WTF?I went in the office and Mr body shop manager standing there all proud of himself says looks great dosent it?I said paint looks awesome but...the windshield has chips on it...the painted part on the mirrors havent been painted..the weatherstripping has a couple tears from the power washing..and Oh one more thing....The SS emblems are on upside down..he said your kidding right? i pointed out the window to the 55 on the fenders..i like Sammy Hagar's music and all but there is no way those emblems are staying that way... i wish i had my camera
  11. I've been without my SSS for 28 days the kids call this truck Mini me....on the jobsite its "nice girlie truck"...loli cant wait for mine to come home...
  12. Hey everyone...sorry havent be on in a while...we've been without electricity for 3 days...that was one nasty storm...anyway here are the picts of all the parts: -Hood : is in decent shape..no dings,just concrete splatter (the body shop power washed the rest of the truck and the concrete came off..but i would paint it) -Grill : again decent shape..not broken just a couple specks -Brake ducts : decent shape..not broken,couple specks -Rear bumper pad : nice shape..i dont know why they replaced it -Front bumper cover : there is a split in the cover on the right (pass) side on the edge of the duct definatly fixable -1 pair of emblems(left and right) : nice shape no concrete on them i have no idea on the whole shipping thing so try and bear with me on that, and i have nop idea what to sell them for so all parts are individual BEST OFFER I live just northeast of Philly,PA PM me your offer any questions give me a call...my cell is 267 229 9250
  13. Stopped by to check the progress...about every other day....and today there she was sitting outside...and to my surprise...a full,complete,100% Paint!! considering Progressive downgraded the entire paint they wrote on the window when I dropped it off to paint everything but... passenger rear door (above the cladding)and passenger side of the bed ...Being the pain in the ass customer and alot of bitching and letting them know I am going over this truck with a magnifying glass and they will do it util its right...the dealer wanted to make happy I get her back maybe monday...and i have all the parts they replaced! Hood,Grill and honeycomb,front bumper,brake ducts,both mirrors so I'll be moving these items to the for sale topic...cheap! more to come......................................

    PCM tuning

    Is it wise to pick up another PCM to have tuned in case there are any issues with a "tuned" PCM? Especially for those times we have to go to the dealer for repairs/warranty stuff that way it wont get "flashed"?from what ive read here there is a small percentage of tunes that there are issues with....is this common?
  15. i'll find out for you on monday...im getting mine replaced
  16. was at the dealer today...he's up to $3505.00 but the insurance nazi's recinded the entire paint...the are gonna sand and paint the hood,roof,driverside- fender -door rear door-bed...cladding might have to be replace,sand and paint pass side-fender-door,polish -rear door-side of bed and cladding might be replaced.replace plastic piece where wipers are,grill,brake ducts,both mirrors might be replaced,along with windshield, front bumper had a split by the pass side duct so ill be buying a new cover...gm#12335650...$325.00...and they'll paint that since it has to come off for painting.the only saving grace is that the body shop manager is cool and dont like Progressive insurance so if they burn through the clear or if there is any dings it'll be a full dip!!also the manager said i can have all the parts that come off and get replaced!!
  17. i'll have a stock grill....with a few specks of concrete on it..ill let ya know
