Actually no i didn't know they were all overdrive so i appreciate it. I cant remember which doesn't require electronics but i know it was the earlier ones cant recall the model.

I ran many turbo's growing up, then a Toyota pickup from 82 though 1995, a 95 S10 with 4 banger and manual from 95 through 2005, and a Dakota after that, so basically with the exception of my 72 K20 I've owned from 94 to current so i have little to no experience with the newer Chevy drive trains. ...What can i say.. Other than its been really hard for me to not go buy a brand new Chevy truck as of late, they are looking really nice. LOL!
They do look really sweet! I understand the pain of shelling out big money for a new truck...which is why I have never owned one! Used is just fine for me!

I bet...I am going to cheat in this area and have the body shop do that for me...judge all you want, I am just not good enough to do it. I really want this truck looking sharp, so I am going to leave that to my pro's. Still looking forward to riding around in yours. When you decide it needs a good mud bath, bring it up to central Texas and we can take it to the farm
