Bought me a new truck, didn't even put gas in it and already lowered it, put in a billet grill, exhaust and tinted the windows... Less than 200 miles on it

67ChevyRedneck · 08-01-2015, 12:51 AM

Nice! I just bought one a little higher up.... 2015 5.3l z71.

You work fast!

justpball · 08-01-2015, 09:36 AM

I traded in my 2000 Z71 that I've owned for the past 11 years. Kinda teared up a bit when they took her inside...

Anyway, yeah... I felt kinda stupid when the sales guy was explaining all the stuff... and I'm not a "tech idiot." I'm a civil engineer, I use all sorts of programs, etc, I'm pretty good with my smart phone, but was just blown away with all the "crap" it can do. I just want it to drive well and last me 10 years.

This is mine, I picked it up last night. 5.3L 2LT Z71.

And no, I didn't park in the HC space, they were technically closed by the time we got down to business and the appraisal guy parked it there.

I like your wheels a lot more than mine.

Nice!

justpball · 08-05-2015, 10:17 AM

Thanks!

I just bought the Z71 LTZ 2015 Silverado White. I will put up some photo's when the sun comes out. All I have done is put a Leer Camper shell on it. I took it to Georgia last weekend and got 26.9 MPG! I also traded my old trusty 2003 Z71, after 300,000 miles. She still ran great but It was time.

justpball · 08-07-2015, 05:26 PM

Yea post them up... Would love to see it

Looks great! Now you need to ditch the steps and maybe trim the air dam.

justpball · 09-04-2015, 01:19 PM

My wife love the steps because she is 5' tall... Lol

Nice looking trucks ! I picked up a 2015 GMC SLT Z71 4X4 back in March of this year. I added the Denali grille and tonneau cover. Like already stated the truck gets great gas mileage. Here is a couple pics. of mine. The color is called Cayenne Metallic and has been discontinued for 2015. It was only available for a very short time.

justpball · 09-07-2015, 10:56 AM

Looks great! Love that color!

C10_ustacould · 10-26-2015, 01:07 PM

How is the ride with the 5/7 drop, any rubbing/bottoming issues, and which kit did you use?

justpball · 10-26-2015, 05:10 PM

Little rubbing on big bumps... I haven't trimmed anything except the bump stops...rides Great though... Bell tech kit

Jonboy · 10-26-2015, 11:21 PM

I've had the opposite experience than you guys with my 2014 Silverado. I bought a High Country to get the brown interior, and it has had a vibration since new. I originally wanted to lower it, but have decided not to until it's fixed. Strangely enough, I have had a bit of trouble finding anyone who wants to mess with it. My mileage is a bit lower than what has been posted here too. I am averaging 17.0 over the last 1800 miles of mostly highway driving. Must have got a Monday build.....

**dennislbrooks** · 02-14-2016, 02:45 PM

I ordered this truck Mar 2015 --took 4 months for delivery but the Max was worth it. Since it is a W/T I could not get the aluminum 18" wheels but I have since put on a new takeoff set. Get's 18.7 at 76 mph cuisin is better at 65mph -- no trailer.

birdie · 03-22-2016, 08:34 PM

Those are good looking trucks. I am going to take a 2500 out for a test drive tomorrow.

justpball · 03-23-2016, 10:17 AM

Traded my stock wheels for these 26s

**dennislbrooks** · 03-23-2016, 09:31 PM

Cool, I am not a low rider but that is a good looking truck. I kinda wish GM had a dressier hood like the 2011s or an oem hood stripe on my chevy.
