thats the best way to drive these trucks "topless"

krue · 03-27-2007, 08:11 PM

Looks like you had fun!

Jtrux · 03-27-2007, 09:47 PM

Yeah I am, and I'm having a good time but it has started to run rough again so maybe there's more going on then just fouled up plugs.

Nice! Looks like a tough truck.

I can't wait til it is time to pull the hard top and put on the soft top!

Awesome! - That's the way God made them to be.

You park that off Randolph Blvd.? I saw a similar one there about a week ago with a tarp for a top.

Wurd....and no, I'm nowhere near Randolph. I wonder if that one is for sale.

First time is always the best.

Mine stays topless all year round now, I just park it with the cover over it and let old man winter do his thing.

have a blast!

The top came off 6 years ago and hasn't been back on. It sleeps in the garage unless I'm driving it.

Congrats - looks great topless!

Ahhh... I remember that first drive in the topless blazer. Blazers do look best without the top. It is quite a rush going on that first drive topless, isn't it? I was surprised that the cabin is much quieter with the top off. The exhaust tone does not bounce around the cabin. Has anyone experienced that phenomenon?

LUV2XCLR8 · 04-01-2007, 07:58 AM

Not with "GQ" she is so dang loud it doesn't really make a differance, as
for "Merlot" she's still topped since she's outdoors and I'm a 1 man crew.

**jamie72** · 04-01-2007, 02:30 PM

stingray72 · 04-01-2007, 05:08 PM

Nice!! I took the top of mine 3 years ago and never put it back on.. LOL
