I couldn't pass up the rebates we had for employees in January so I traded Missy's Yukon in. We had been wanting a crew cab for quite a while and this seemed like the perfect time. It had almost the exact option list I wanted, the things that I didn't like I have slowly been changing

So far I have:
Tinted the front windows(Legal, Missy got stopped once for dark windows and it was a big ordeal lol)
auto-dim rearview mirror
removed the rear blocks
debadged
painted grille(with chrome mesh)
painted handles, rear bumper, front bumper and mirror covers
seat heaters
remote start
Weather Tech floor liners
I ordered a set of U2 24s, hopefully they'll be in next week. The next hurdle I'm trying to tackle is adding power folding mirrors, it doesn't seem to be an easy task

I should also be getting the exhaust done soon. I'll get some better pics this weekend when we get it cleaned up.

). The wheels and tires should be here tomorrow so I'll get some pics up then clean or not.

Very nice truck. Love the wheels and the paint to match front end is the way to go in the new Chevys. It inspired me to play with the pic a little..
