So yeah... I am the FNG.

I like football and ***** and books about war... LOL

Seriously just found the site today and figured might not be a bad place to sign up for info from time to time. My 99 Yukon is my daily beater with 122K on the clock and she runs like a champ. Just never a bad thing to have a place to come when I need help or am looking for something specific. I really have no interest in modding my Yuk other than replacing all the stock radio junk. I have an Alpine head unit and some aftermarket speakers that I am sitting on the porch waiting to attack the UPS driver tomorrow arriving so I hope to have a better sound quality system up and running tomorrow night. I'll let everyone know how it went.

Thanks and I hope I enjoy my stay
Mike
