Jason's 07' CTSV is for sale. With or without the LS3 418 stroker. He's around mid to low 20's with the LS2 low 30's with the 418.

You could always buy my truck. I'd give you a extra good price, then you have a truck to haul your dirtbike out to the desert with us this season

Dmax seems reasonable if you're going to be buying one anyways. I've read about 19 and 20 mpgs and upwards on here so with any luck you could manage that.

I was also confused about third gen canadians... Thought it was a joke way over my head at first

I fell in love with the G8 when it came out actually, wanted a GXP. And now that you've mentioned it, it's made me realize that any GM vehicle will be too tempting to mod...

Yup...
I understand it's taboo and redneck but to me, a car is a means to have fun and enjoy myself with. I could care less what people think, hence why I bought a "cute" golf last year. I wouldn't let owning a corvette stop me from heading out to the desert to go dirtbike riding simply because someone would think me redneck for putting a hitch on it.

Yeah, saw that last night on Craigslist! But I don't want anything modded, needs to be reliable and I need to know that if I beat on it, it's gonna hold together. And he's also selling it for more than I'm willing to spend.

Thanks dude, I'll think on your and Pat's offer. But whatever I get, be it a Fiat 500 or a Kodiak...I'll still be out there with you guys this season. Been thinking about it alot lately! I was thinking about buying a toy hauler but I need a tow rig first.

Ehhh...no thanks. 2nd and 3rd gen camaro's are not my favorites. And you were supposed to keep that information to yourself, there's a reason why it's called pillow talk.

Let me think about it.

I would but it's unregistered because I can't get it smogged. I used to know a few people that could help me get it smogged but they are now out of business for various reasons. And until I get it smogged it's also uninsured.
The few times I've taken it out on the streets with it being uninsured and w/ out-of-date tags I've been so nervous about cops and other motorists that it hasn't been much fun. When I do get it sorted out it I will split the DD'ing duties between the truck and whatever I get.

I've been watching craig'slist for a while and been looking at what's out there. There's quite a few good looking truck out there between 10-20 grand. I'd also be one of the few who would drop it. Not so much that I couldn't still tow a 5th wheeler with it, so not slam it per say, but definitely drop it a good amount.
