fortplainman Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 oh and if you want an ecoboost, your actually gona pay more for that engine vs. a 5.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perez Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 as long as its american your good. TBO though, the gas mileage and pricetag on that is gona be around what you can get on a fullsize and youll have more room in the fullsize. just get an extended cab standard box silverado/f150/ram and youll be fine. well said.. you will be mad at yourself for not getting the same price and gas mileage in a bigger ride. you can get that same deal at any dealership tbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I like the Colorado a lot! Same color as my truck! I started looking at a black one with the v8, it was loaded for $34,000. I may have to make a trade also. haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortplainman Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 well said.. you will be mad at yourself for not getting the same price and gas mileage in a bigger ride. you can get that same deal at any dealership tbo my monthly payment was cheaper when i leased it than a equally equipped canyon. thats the exact reason i went fullsize.

Kingsford Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 Well boys and girls.... here it is.... That is MINE. First truck that is completely in my name. I get it Friday. I paid $19,000 plus my truck. The dealer threw in factory Nerf Bars ($595) and factory molded mud flaps ($143) for free and installed free. Its a 2011 3.7L 5 Cylinder, 2LT w/ Z71 package. 17" Chrome Wheels ( my fav part), bucket seats, fully loaded inside. I will have more pictures Saturday or Friday Night. Now the crappy part.... Time to start ripping stuff out of my old truck.... Hours and hours of work all being torn apart. Can someone hand me those wire cutters please?

LDM Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Congrats on the new truck. Does this mean you'll change your name to FFkingschevy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsford Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 Congrats on the new truck. Does this mean you'll change your name to FFkingschevy? Hahaha no. Kingsford is actually my nickname at the Fire Department. When I first started no one could ever remember my name and they thought it was Kingsford (like the charcoal) so people started calling me Kingsford. Well then that turned into my nickname being "Charcoal" but the Fire Chief didn't like that much cause he thought it was like raciest or something so they stuck with Kingsford. For those of you who dont know my last name is Kingsnorth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This ones been sitting in a show room for 3 months so I got lucky I think hahaha reusing all the lights? I dont think I've ever seen your setup Yes I am reusing. I will take a video for you tomorrow. I have a Mini Phantom in the Window (Blue/White), 2 Soundoff Mini LED3's in the grille and 2 more Mini LED3's around on a license plate bracket on the rear bumper. Possibly going to put the 2 from the rear in the back window of the new truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to do a custom KITT setup for my scoops, just gotta come up with $300.. of course I'd like to add some behind the grills and the back deck, as well as the license plate bracket, but those little lights cost $$ lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got a Brand New Jetsolarious Lightbar from FedSig for like $100. He does all of the radio programming for the county and does all the radios and lighting for the Sheriff Dept.

Kingsford Posted September 22, 2011 Author Share Posted September 22, 2011 Ya they were like $1000 light bars. They were "Overstocked" and had "Water Damage".... THEY ARE LIGHT BARS THEY SIT IN THE RAIN! I'll see what I can do. We have a meeting tomorrow, we are ordering a new Tanker. I'll talk to him them and if he can do something I'll email you.

Chewy Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I'm going to be honest... I'm a little scared of the Black Paint.... But thats nothing Dylan and Chris can't get me through! Can't wait to throw some Americana on this baby! You should be! Either you'll love having to constantly correct it, because you're a freak like that, or it'll drive you NUTS trying to keep it nice. I'm the latter, but I also have a family and less time to mess around with it. Does that thing have a drop in bed liner? If so, rip it out now and sell it. Put the money towards Line-X and a HD rubber mat. Best money I spent on my truck. Congrats on the new truck... Oh and the new payment...
