  1. All I can tell you is it has 23 flavors and can be found at any grocery store or convenience store and many restaurants.
  2. I think I have profected pulled pork! Take a large bone in pork shoulder roast, cover with rub, inject it with "special sauce" smoke for 3 hours: Place in pan: Add "Special Sauce", wrap it up, and cook for another 4 hours: Let cool a bit, and then pull it apart: No need for BBQ sauce
  3. Well my friend said he is hoping to finish most of the painting over the next week or two. He just has to finish both bed sides (which are in rough shape), one front fender well, and the driver side door. Then he is going to pull off the cab and fix the rust, then paint the cab, and the frame, engine and trranny, and it should be finished. Here is a picture of the paint in full sunlight.
  4. Originally we were going to go with an Orange but when it came time to buy paint we decided to go with BMW Techno Violet. It's going to be very unique. He does know his stuff. He is also extremely picky about it, and is a perfectionist Which is obviously a good thing.
  5. Nope that's the color. Techno Violet I have seen the underside of the hood in person and it looks great!
  6. I had Glasspacks on my SS and they were loud as hell.
  7. My paint guy has slowly been working on the truck. Here is a little teaser:
  8. That could be a possibility. There is always a risk going anywhere where someone has access to your vehicle where there might be some shady stuff going on. You just never know. My truck was broken into the night after I took my truck to a car wash. I had an employee working for me that worked a second job at that same car wash and he said he would not be surprised at all if it was someone at that place. But there is not much you can do, just let your insurance handle it, and you can let the police know your suspicions and let them investigate it. Anyway sorry to hear that happened. People piss me off.
  9. I like it alot. Its pretty cool to see how they are able to keep thos ecars running using make shift parts
  10. My 69 Chevy could really use this, too bad its not in the cards right now
  11. It should fit, but that can depend on the size of the seat. I know there are plenty of people on this site who have. There is more room than a Camaro I can tell you that much.
  12. now I am by no way an expert, but I have never seen an RST in an crew cab or extended cab. They are usually regular cab 4.8L with the 5-speed. They are not a performance package at all, they are just an apperenace package usually with stripes, a different lower valance, 20" wheels, a fin on the back, a roll pan, and some minor interior changes. If you do a google image search for Silverado RST you wont see a crew cab. So Im going to say that someone got a hold of some RST parts and put them on an crew cab. Now that being said, this is actually a nicer vehicle, and much more practical. It has some of the cool parts from the RST, but in a much more practical vehicle.
  13. I like the changes they made, but Im not a huge fan of the Denali grille. The All Terrain Grille however looks great. Here are some more pics: http://www.gminsidenews.com/forums/f70/gm-reveals-2016-gmc-sierra-215585/ I love how they are finally offering LED headlights!!!!! If I do decided to replace my truck in the next year or so, Im thinking very hard about a GMC All Terrain with the 5.3
  14. Yay! I get to spend $1,800 on steering/suspension parts on my HD. The issues are most likely caused by my Torsion Lift. Wonderfull

      That sucks man. I didn't know that would cause issues.

      I'm not far behind. 2k into the truck last month and I'm looking at doing the front end very soon.

      Yeah both the upper and lower ball joints were starting to shred and at 70K miles that is way wya way to early. The rest of the steering can wear out that fast, but its not that common. So my options now are to drop it back to stock height and maybe have to get smaller tires or go back to stock wheels. Or the most expensive option would be to do a suspension lift. I can do a 4" and keep my current tires/wheels, but if I do a 6" i would have to get new tires

  15. You could say the same thing about the change they made in 03. The 99-02 was selling very well but they did a pretty nice refresh and it sold even better. I am a little surprised they made changes this fast after only 2 years, but on the other hand I have read lots of rumors saying that GM will be completely remodeling the Silverado for the 2019 model, which means the K2XX body style will only last for 5 model years which is quite a bit quicker than they previously have. So if its true they will have a new body style after 5 years then it does not surprise me that they did a refresh this quick. The biggest complaint about the GMT 900's was they did not make any real major changes for 7 years, not even a mid cycle refresh (like they did with the GMT 800's). Im sure some of that had to do with the bankruptcy.
  16. I like how they decided to color match the grille and bumper and I think it looks good. I also like the LED turn signals. But this is the high end LTZ Z71, what are the mid range front ends going to look like? Will they also be color matched? Probably not I also like the hood, and the fog lights
  17. I agree with you there. I love the new Silverados as well, but yeah the price is ridiculous, but its the same for all new vehicles, especially trucks and SUVs. One of the main reasons im a seriously looking at a new Colorado is that it will do everything I would need it to do, but fully loaded they are only like $35K vs $45K for a similar Silverado. Plus that new Diesel is looking pretty awesome.
  18. I dont know whats worse the ugly paint jobs, or the model's super high waste bikini bottom
  19. I agree! Im stick of Black as well Im really liking the Custom Sport Edition which is only availible in black and white diamond. If I get a new truck i think it will look like this
  20. Very Nice! I want a new 6.2 so bad. I just dont know if I can justify getting rid of my truck that I never drive, but buy a much more expensive truck that I never drive
