My Truck got Bumped from the Garage

Because I bought a car. I don't want to offend ardent Truck guys but my truck is tougher than this.....

Re: My Truck got Bumped from the Garage

Nice ride.I believe I would get it out of the snow and salt also.Now it's time to add a shop to the property so your truck can get back in out of the cold.

Re: My Truck got Bumped from the Garage

If I kick the Van to the Curb I might have to go with it......lol

Actually already planning another garage/shop. We have enough room for a third garage on the side and I plan on making it 40 ft long. Last fall I already had some stumps removed and the topsoil peeled back. This summer I should be able to get the cement poured and maybe framed.

Talking Re: My Truck got Bumped from the Garage

Nice ride and I fully understand!!!
That car would be the only reason my truck would loose it's spot in the garage. But the 07 Tahoe would go first.

After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: My Truck got Bumped from the Garage

What is with the mini van - have some pride and join it on the curb so your truck can sleep soundly at night.

My landlord is amazed that my shed holds the 93 GMC and the 72 Chev while sitting out under a tree covered in bird poo is the 2009 Ford.

Gots to have priorities.

I wish! Mine pretty much takes up two spaces, which must be clear at all times...If the kids were older that might be a different story. She used to hate moving the carseat in the Miami monsoons.

Nice camaro, I'd kick my truck out to pasture for that baby!

Re: My Truck got Bumped from the Garage

Here are a few more. One when it came on the truck, one of the interior and one of the truck making room for it.

Well I looked in 15 States and all of Canada. Only seen 3 or 4 I would have bought. This one worked out best for me and I love Red!

I think I'd give that Camaro it's own bedroom.

And I am jealous that you get to build one so go figure...lol

I tried to join the Saskatoon Camaro Club but as of yet I am still pending. Would love to take in one of their cruises. Around here I only know of one other 1st Gen in a 100 mile radius.

Just starting to tear into it a bit and I can say I am extremely lucky(I bought it sight unseen). Other than a couple of pin holes in the trunk near the back the car is crazy solid and straight! With some interior upgrading/cleaning, engine bay cleaning and some sanding/buffing it should be a really nice car. Not a trailer queen but a nice local show car, which is exactly what I wanted!

Just lucky to have a wife that caves to my wants.....lol
