Why I Didnt Buy A Chevy and Bought a Sierra

[ChevyTruckGuy]

Im a chevy guy I guess even though I have owned fords in the past. If anybody asked me back then why I have chevy bumper stickers on my ford I told them because I couldent afford a chevy, lol.
When it came time to by a new truck back in '08 I did the usual research and test drove the compatition. I drove the chevy and it was nice but I couldent get past the way the front was designed. Not to knock my favorite brand, I love the chevys but couldent spend the 30k on one.
Heres the thing. When I pull along side a chevy silverado the thing I dont like besides the built in fender flairs was how the head lights wrapped around into the fenders. It dosent look good to my eyes. Hate the position of the amber running lights as well...
Well when I saw the Sierra I fell in love. The front end looked beautiful, head lights were perfect and to me it even kinda looks tough. I didnt like the rounded built in fender flairs but what can I do? It wasnt enough to discourage me from taking the next step. The 5.3 is awesome however if I had it to do over again I would have looked at the 6.2? motor and rather then the aluminum stock 17's I would have gotten the stock 20's, still probably will. I was going to use this truck for commuting but instead I got a 96 silverado to put the 1000 miles on per week, 7 weeks after I bought the new truck. I got the sle1 package ex cab stealth grey color cloth seats. Okay maybe leather seats would have been better....
In 11 more months I will have the pink slip. Then I will probably lower it a bit, get the rims and tires, tint the windows and enjoy it......
Here is a pic of it when I got it and my twin sheds I just finished building a while back......It bounces from the sheds with retractable roof and the garage...I built these sheds mostly from scrap/ recycled materials. I even have a youtube video build on them if anybody is interested....
Dont hate me for being honest, lol, Mike


PS..MY NEXT TRUCK WILL BE A USED 2008 CHEVY REG. CAB SHORTY......
