You got me. The only other color I wanted was the brighter blue. I don't car for white or silver since every other car on the road is white or silver and I don't like red. I wanted black but didn't think I was ready to keep a black truck clean and swirl free.
 
That picture of the truck and Camaro on the trailer reminds me of the Tonka trucks you used to play with as kids now its the same thing with bigger toys.

Been awhile since i have been on the forum, things have been busy.
 
Back in January we traded the GTO in on a truck, it was going to happen either then or this coming December. We went shopping knowing we didn't have to buy anything but found a great deal witht he end of the year sales going on. This larger vehicle was need since the birth of my daughter in September. We got a Deep Ruby Red Chevrolet Silverado Crew Cab LTZ Z71.
 
The GTO was traded in with 42,3xx miles on it.
Here us a picture of the GTO last summer.
 

 
Here are pictures from the first day she was at home, January 2nd, 2013 with 30 miles.

Here is the reasons I needed the truck

Trading the GTO also gave me the motivation to fix my Camaro which had been parked for nearly 3 years. After a new Opti-Spark, she fired right up and was ready to haul home.
