Talking My New Project (Truck) is here!!!!

Good things come to those who are patient! after a week of looking at garbage that some people call "mint trucks" I finally came across A DEAL.

2007 Chevy Avalanche LT, its got everything but moonroof , leather and heated seats even comes with a remote starter from GM my Wife likes that. it was listed at $20 Grand I got it for $17,500 Cert & E tested plus he did a complete brake job all around and it has extended warranty till Oct 2011 from GM it was a private sale.

Both me and my Wife are happy with this because 1 its in great shape and 2 we didn't think we'd be able to get into such a new truck and 3 its our favorite colour combo White with black int.

She's not detailed yet but it will be ASAP.

Now I already have plans for this baby starting with an HID kit that I'll put in this week. in the spring (and depending on my Job situation) it's definitely 100% getting at least 20"s if not 22"s mainly because I don't like the 17"s it comes with. My Wife suggested TV's in the head rests for the kids and maybe I'll get a power programmer and intake buuut I'll focus on a job first. I'll take better pics when its all detailed.

Looks good, I have liked the Avalanche since they got rid of all of the plastic on the sides. That front end is the nicest Chev/GM puts out, I am not sure why it is only on the Avalanche/Yukon. Seems like you got a great deal as well

Love it. White is always a favorite. Do as Rob Dyrdek did, but Alla Avalanche.

Looks great Roy.
If you are looking for 20s or 22s give me a shout, I found a couple places that have complete packages including OEM sensors.
I just picked up a set of new OEM 20s, 275 tires and sensors.
Here's one of them.

Congrats. Sounds like a good truck.

A job is probably a good thing too!

Those above are brand new OEM 20s and sensors with new UHP all seasons, never been on a truck.

The OEM 17s that I picked up a few weeks ago were Dealer Take-offs with sensors and new winter tires. Pic below
