I hate Gwinnett, too many people, too many morons that can’t drive. Hoping to only live here another 5 years or so. Where I’m talking about is 985 south at 20 right near the mall of ga. I work off friendship road

No way lol. Where do you live now? I was born in Dekalb but we moved to Gwinnett when I was 7, Hamilton Mill area specifically. The mall of ga wasn’t there and there were lots of dirt roads and hardly anyone here

Yeah, a few friends from growing up that stuck around and did well are in Hamilton Mill... hard to believe that's where I used to go off roading. I live in Alaska now, got burned out of Atlanta around 2010 and have lived in AK, SC, and TN since.

My favorite past truck, 4.8 and a 5 speed. It was a blast.

I still own this one, 2003 2500HD 4wd RCLB, sitting at 314k miles.

For fun a few of my previous not NBS vehicles.

The 97 Firebird, it was my mobile office during the week, logging 5-6,000 miles a month.

On weekends I showed it, here winning a BOC. It typically took about 8 hours of cleaning to get it ready to show.

The 2001 E38 740i (quite possibly my favorite car of my life.)

I have owned many GM vehicles in my short 54 years and a few that were not GM. My wife has had a few lately as well. a 2009 Tahoe LTZ 4wd, which was my favorite of her vehicles, a 2013 Tahoe 2wd and her current 2015 Silverado Z-71.

Here is what happened to the 2009 LTZ, she was stopped on the highway waiting to turn and got rear ended by a guy going 70 mph. It doesn't look bad but it buckled the frame, broke both front seats as well as the rear drivetrain. It knocked her Tahoe about 80' from where she was stopped. Even with the damage she drove it off the highway.

The van that hit her.

If she had been in her Infinity G37s she probably would not be here today.

I love NBS trucks and SUVs. I’m on my 5th NBS, only second SUV tho.

1st was an 05 ECSB Z71 with the L33 aluminum ** 5.3. Leveled on 33 trails, charcoal cloth,

zACH




buckets/console/Bose/steering wheel controls
e9146e399a726443b77fb00dece51168.jpg


Traded that on a Coyote Mustang a couple months after graduating college. Went through a couple more Mustangs and a K5 before buying an almost identical red ECSB. Didn’t keep that one long, don’t have any pictures.

Next was my 06 CCSB Z71 Sierra. My absolute favorite vehicle I’ve had. LM7 5.3 with factory 4.10s, charcoal cloth/buckets/console/nose/steering wheel controls. Leveled and paint matched on 33 trails (my favorite tires, can ya tell?)
ada1b2cc58cff913956a93137614f939.jpg


Started dating my now wife and she we needed to start saving for a house. Was still paying on the Sierra so it had to go (I literally was sick about selling that truck, still am. Wanna buy it back in a year or two). Bought an 04 5.3 L59 flexfuel 2wd Tahoe LT. White/tan leather, captains chairs, bose, sunroof, LT3s, loaded, stock

Then a lady turned in front of me and this is what became of the Hoe
a24849b2be5c82e8762ee3195bcce42a.jpg


And that led to my current truck, an 04 Yukon LT. Pewter metallic, grey leather, 2nd row bench, sunroof, LT3s, 2wd. Dropped 2/3 soon to be more

Before my current 2016 Suburban I had a few 99-06 SUVs. They are a great bargain and if I had a place to work on stuff up here my wife would still be driving one, with a little time and money they'll go forever.

What has everyone else had over the years?

My 2003 Suburban Z71... sorry for the blurry pics, it's been a few years.

My 2004 3/4 Ton 8.1/4L80E leveled Suburban. My favorite SUV I've owned, my wife hated it. 9 mpg and rode like a school bus, such a beast but not what mama wanted with two small kids.

The last ride before the current burb, we only had it for a couple months before my offer to come back to Alaska. 2005 Denali, stock with all the options... sunroof, touchscreen, Bose, middle row TV and buckets.

Michael, you don't have a ugly vehicle in your yard, all of them have been touched by an expert, just the right amount of lift, the perfect wheel/tire combo, and just CLEAN!!!!!!!!!

Haha thanks. If I could back and change things, I would’ve focused on paying it off before modding it, that way I could’ve kept it once we got married. It was stock when I got it except for some leveling keys

I loved mine but it rode like a tractor. I am pretty sure I left my spleen on I-40 between Amarillo and OKC.

The full Gibson exhaust sure sounded nice though.

mine rode like a large car really. but could tow and haul crap with ease. i tell ya it felt like it liked to work. towed my boat with it too. if you took off from a dead stop, and left normal like. you really didnt feel it back there.

i also had a cat back of who knows what brand. my exhaust shop guys like i ll take care of ya, you'll like it, and i did. went with dual tails pipes. the 3500 and 2500 hd's didnt have a Y pipe. so true dual to the muffler.

Mine was a SWB. My 2003 2500HD rides a lot better than the old SWB did, it still hurts my old body. lol

I had one of the first '95 4-door Tahoes in Memphis. Black w/ gray leather. My daily driver and race car tow vehicle, then work truck. When it gave out I bought an '09 for $3000 as a work truck and got several years out of it. Then my '02 bought as a work truck but also now does double duty as a tow vehicle. Drove Memphis to Road Atlanta and back this past weekend w/ no issues. Pushing 208,000. Keeping my eyes open for an '08 up.

Gotcha, I couldn’t make it Saturday, only Sunday. I don’t run anything (too poor lol) but we have a family friend that was running a white/blue/orange ‘76 911 in E production that I was helping with. And I used to work for Comprent Motorsports (idk if you saw their rig) so I was visiting them
