thought I’d share about my adventure day today.... lol
So today I ended up driving off the mountain. Desperately needed to get to a chemical guys detail garage to restock on products. When my private snowboarding lessons that were supposed to be booked on the ski resort for yesterday morning and this morning canceled at the last minute, I told my manager that since I wasn’t technically on the schedule that I wasn’t gonna come in. Lol. needed to just get out of dodge for a bit.
So I got up this morning, had some breakfast, fired up the Nali and hustled off the mountain. Rolled into the high desert pick and pull yard cuz I saw they had a 2004 Yukon xl come in a few days ago. That trip was a bust and nothing usable off any of the GMT800 vehicles they had. No big deal so I drove down cajon pass and into riverside and grabbed what I needed from detail garage.
On the way home I’m like “hmmmmm I’m going right near the San Bernardino pick and pull yard, no rush and they’re open til 5.... yeah I’m gonna scoot in there!” Holy shit there were a ton of full size GMs! I’m walking around and I see a gmt900 Escalade headlight... “I’m like that’s odd how the heck did that get here?!” Then I see an 18 inch esky wheel laying on the ground and think well maybe it was on an older Tahoe or Yukon.... and then around the corner of the aisle and there sits a 2007 ESV.... mind blown.... lol never seen a GMT900 ever in my socal pick and pull yards....
sadly the old gal was picked over pretty well, the only way to tell it was a caddy was by looking at the tailgate that was sitting on the ground with the Escalade badge. The entire front end was completely gone, fenders, hood, front clip, even the complete engine bay had been stripped... Just thought it was interesting to see a GMT900 in my local yard. I am probably gonna be in the market for a GMT900 in the next couple months so it would be pretty cool if they started regularly stocking them in the yards to Pilcher parts hahaha.
