Yes, please do.

I can appreciate her getting it to lower the note, & for better MPG. Women think practical in a car, & mileage accomplishes that. It must be used tho, cause it's got a Magnaflow. Or it was added somewhere along the line.

That's no ordinary V6 in that thing... Direct Injection! It's probably the most technically-advanced engine GM has produced to date. Read up on it; the specs are impressive.

Yea, I tried to talk her into the SS, but she didnt want a V-8 cause her FX 45 got crappy mileage.
She bought it used with low miles, but with the Magnaflow.

I got the Titan for a few reasons.
I was pissed at GM for their shitty QC, and couldnt find a Silverado, or Sierra 4x4 that was built in the US. And I liked the Titan better than the Tundra.
Had the Silverado not been giving me some issues, I woulda kept it till next year and traded for a Sierra.
The titan will keep me from modding my DD, and allow more time (money) to go to the Silverado I still have (99 RCSB)

So just to clear it up, I still have one Silverado to keep me happy, and I dont have to worry about smoking a transmission pulling the boat home this hunting season.

I agree with James B. That v6 is no slouch and it's quite the car regardless!
Congrats on the new ride!

Can't find a Silverado made in the U.S.? You're shittin me, right? Unless in an EC model, maybe then. Maybe it's just the RC's that are made in Pontiac or Ft. Wayne. At least that's how it used to be. Are all the EC's made in Oshawa? I wonder if it varies due to the region a person lives in also.

Nice car. Needs laptop to be completely efficient.

I believe Titans are made in Smyrna Tennessee. Some friends of mine worked there.

Titan is made somewhere in Mississippi. Dont remember where, unless what I read was out of date.

Fast, all the 4wd CC's I could find locally were built in Mexico. After no issues with any of my previous GMs built in the good ole USofA, and all the problems with the one that wasnt, I wasnt gonna buy one that wasnt built here.

The truck locking me out at the camp was the last straw, so it had to go.

Congrats and good luck with both of the new rides...but I'd mod the Titan too just for ***** and giggles

And definitely get your laptop hooked up to the Camaro...she has to sleep sometime!
