C&C Welcome

u'll love the bravada i used to have a 97 Jimmy, great little suv .....

Yeah, Been driving it almost a week now. Got into my 96 today and forgot how small and low my cav is compared to that. Very nice ride tho. She loves it.

have fun with the smart track. theres TONS of problems with them. general repairs are anywhere from 750-2000 depending on what goes wrong with the system. nice rig nonetheless. im more of a fan of the s10 blazers more than those.

I have been aware of the issues with these. This one is showing me no signs of problems. It was checked thoroughly before any purchase was even talked about.

Either way, I can get cheap new parts, and I don't mind replacing components, That just means it is upgrade time.


But here is something even better, I just got word that it is a go on picking up a bike this summer.....Just talked out some details on it the other day with the seller (My uncle, Bike is in Chicago).

2000 Ducati Monster 750

Was red with bronze frame & wheels, Now flat black with bronze frame & wheels
We briefly spoke about what he has done to it,
I believe he said it had Mikuni flat-slide carbs, Corban(sp?) seat, Straight pipes, New bars (forget the name), And hand made bar-end mirrors.

I hope this goes through, I want that bike. I'll ask him to e-mail me some pictures. I'm excited

good buy! i have worked on the 4.3 engine quite a bit. from tune ups to lower gasket replacements to total replacement of the engine. keep an eye on the oil color and the ticking noises in the engine. These are signs of lower intake gasket failure at 100k+ miles.

Nice man, my parents had a 02 it think (the newer style ones) and it was junk (ABS, Front suspension, and it was horrible in the winter etc...) but i like the older style better like the one you got.

nice, if anything was to go wrong, it is almost impossible to take a loss on it.



Picked it up for $1,800.
This is why I checked it and had it checked so anally.



And I just kick ass at findng good deals.
