'00 Z71 good for first vehicle?

[69halfton]

im 17 and still im highschool.

as nice as all those power options sound, that GMC would be way cooler at school. whenever a kid comes to our school in "their own" can or truck, and its all loaded up with all the options, its looks like daddy's truck.

even though this is technically still "daddy's truck" its not quite because its just the bare bones truck....something a kid would own.

myself, id take the GMC over the dodge for just this reason. it would make me feel more like a teenager, driving my own truck. i would rather drive my beater ford ranger with no options then daddy's loaded up truck with all the bells and whistles.
