No doubt, which is a sad state of affairs.

I guess I’ll be the outlier, as the driver of a ‘four wheel drive lifted pickup’ that also happens to be an avid bicyclist and motorcyclist.

Yeah, I dig it.  I know there’s a lot of ‘no solid rear axle / no real transfer case means it’s not a proper 4x4' stigma around it, but it would cover probably 80% of my use case, and I’d just have to drive more carefully for the other 20%.  

With what they spent on the cheapest used Lambo and the cheapest duct tape, I could pay off my mortgage and my truck loan and still have ~$60k left over.

Onstar.. meh. When I bought my Camaro back in 2018, I don’t remember having to provide any info or anything, I just had the 3 free months and then it was gone. When I bought the Colorado in ‘22, holy shit. The sales guy sat there and had me go through the whole ‘introduction’ with an Onstar rep. They tried every angle…

When I ordered my Colorado diesel I made double sure to check the option for a factory block heater, living in MN. It won’t fit in my garage, so it lives outside 24/7. Plugged in all winter and it’s great.

I couldn’t drive my 1LE below 40* as the tires would crack. Well, they would crack if you let it sit outside for a while below 40* and then tried to move it.

Yeah, this kit is horrid.  

I always dug the Fiero hood badge

C5.R with the 7 liter Katech.

KTM 690 Enduro for the win.

Huh. I bought my Colorado for ~$48,000 after TTL. Carvana tells me it’s worth $32,000 with 52k miles on it for a lost of about $.31/mile.  

CLIBBINS! HADDA LAY’ER’DOWN!

Heated grips FTW

Rosenbauer has had this setup since 2018..

That SUV looks fantastic.  But the truck.. all the nostalgia focus and they only offer a crew cab / short bed?  If it had an extended cab and 6'6" bed I’d be putting in a reservation right now.

The Colorado would be dealer installed options, I don’t believe they mount the sports bar or anything at the factory.

The 2nd gen Xterra Pro-4x package came with roof lights (roof boobs) from Nissan, hooked up and everything.  From factory, you were only able to turn them on along with the high beams but you could pretty easily jumper that relay.  Laws vary by state, here in MN they were supposed to be covered anytime you’re on the…

If one of the caveats is it has to be bought new from the dealer, it’d be a ‘24 Camaro SS 1LE or ZL1.

I had a big ass dragonfly hit me (well, I guess I hit him..) in the throat, just below the chin bar of the helmet and just above my jacket collar. That was fun.
