Hi there my name is Tony
I have recently joined this awesome forum and am enjoying the interaction with the members I have met and made a few post's to validate others interests while having fun being cheeky.
About a year or ago a did a deal for a GMC Yukon with a guy with my 2000 VX Holden Commodore HSV Clubsport. It was running a 300kw LS1
Pushing out about 402 ish Horsepower.
Was a great car to drive but my wife Hated it!
I was too good at driving it. Sideways or very quickly forwards [emoji12][emoji110]. The down side is it was so fast to 100 kph/ 60mph beong our open road or highway speed limit and our city's roads were and still are so damaged after the earthquakes we had here 12 odd years ago that the car was getting a hiding and as we like to do a bit of camping around some of our beautiful rivers and lakes it couldn't be driven out there.
Had always wanted a Chevrolet and wanted to get a Siverado 4x4 350ci so I could put a roof tent on the back and enjoy the V8 ride n rumble at a respectable speed [emoji849]
Both on road and off.
A compromise had to be reached as my lovely wife informed me that she wasn't sleeping in no tent(her words)
So I started looking for an SUV that had enough room to be slept in and found this.
A 1997 GMC YUKON
350 Vortec 2" body lift
35" tires on 10" x 16 M/T
Our favorite colour Black!
After approaching the owner and having a look we left his house and being in the Clubbie I nailed it leaving his house and before getting home he had called me interested in looking at my car for a possible trade.
Long story short the deal was made and the relationship between Man and Truck began.
The Clubbie The Beast Let the adventures begin!!
