Thanks! My goal would be to find one person that the truck would appeal to and hopefully they will have enough money to buy it! I will remain open minded for now... If they did something really great with the paint, it might change my mind. I gave them some strong suggestions in this area.

We will catch you next time, killer. This was going on about 8 months ago, so it may have flown in under your radar.

Well, If they do "Pimp" your ride, Lucky for you there's millions of people that like that sort of thing and would love to buy it... So, if it looks like a drug dealer's g-ride, it'd be easy to sell it to a drug dealer for quick cash.... And you know it'll be cash paid. seriously though, i'm sure it'll be nice. Were the Lambo doors your idea? I'm kinda wondering what rims are on it for the radio station people to keep mentioning how cool they were. I'm betting on at least you'll at least be rolling on dubs. Maybe twomp twomps or twa foes. Na meen.

I hope that it has a wide appeal. Cash is good! I knew that regardless of what I would tell them, they were going to go custom with the truck, so fearing a pimped ride, I attempted to lead them down the path of a "rocked" ride and not a "pimped" ride. The picture that I painted for them was more of a muscle truck, tinted windows, black and green two tone with green ghost flames and some nice wheels along the lines of Torque Thrusts and bags were ok. If I told them that I wanted to keep it stock, they would have laughed me out of there as they are a custom shop. Fortunately this truck needed a lot of work, so whatever I do get it out of it will be a huge improvement.

So I see the shop is still working their magic and you are in limbo as to how it is going to turn out. I am eager to see how it ends up for you.

From UrbanDictionary.com:

DUBS: noun- twenty inch rims and only twenty inch rims for anything larger see twankie dueces, dub dueces, or duece dueces. smaller see dub minus dueces "why would you put dubs on a mustang?"

twomps: rims 20 inches or above. " man that Lac on sum serious twomps"

twa foes: No help from Urban Dictionary... My guess is 24's? "Why would you put twa foes on a Classic Suburban?"

na meen: Short for "Know what I mean?" This is pretty lame, na meen?

Learning lingo that I will have to understand in order to converse with individuals that will be admiring my Suburban one day.
