Team Adam's Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Yep... the Avalanche is gone and in its place a 2012 Silverado Z71 Crew Cab 4x4. For now I'm free of the curse of black paint LOL... Silver Ice Metallic this time around. Gonna go a slightly different direction on this one. I'll definitely miss the Avy, I had started to get that itch to do something to it again, and rather than start cutting it up for air ride or dumping money into something else for it I figured it was time to let it go. No real plans as of yet for the new rig aside from getting the bedliner sprayed in and tinting the windows. I'm kicking some other ideas around, but first things first this rain has got to stop so I can debadge it and detail. Its ROUGH! I can tell my clay is gonna get a workout on this one for sure. Heres the only pic I was able to get so far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

txredgt Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I'm considering selling my car for a different one as well. I feel the same exact way you did with yours. Hope it works out and you can make it into your own soon! We all know it's gonna look spotless shortly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Adam's Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 Gotta admit... when I sat down with my friend at the dealer to start the search and I settled on a Z71 he said "color preference? the Z's come in white, silver, black, or victory red" My response: "Anything except black!" I'm ready to have a somewhat "easy" color for a little while. I've paid my dues on the black paint chain gang for long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fierce5 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Congrats I love the Silverados. If you are open to suggestions I say the stock rims have got to be replaced by something else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBlack151 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Man I've loved your last 2 rides, but I hear ya on the escape from black vehicles. Wishing you all the best with the new truck. Don't forget to throw some spare change in there for good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grevels Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 How could you get rid of your Avalanche? I love mine and do not see me going to anything else. I love the versatility of the bed and the storage on the side of the bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngryPolska Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I love those new body Silverados. I'm in the same boat as Dylan. I can 100% guarantee you that the next truck I purchase, absolutely will not be Black, and will not have leather interior. I don't care how good of a deal it is.
