New to forum '03 Suburban

[jcarriere]

Hi everyone new to forum from Dallas area been browsing forum for many years used to have an '07 Denali XL that was totaled last year with only 66k miles. I now am the proud owner of an '03 suburban with 82k miles on it. I am the second owner it was bought new by my dad he passed away back in '09 and it has been in the garage ever since so my mom decided to give it to me so it doesn't just rot away. It's immaculate inside and out with the exception of a few door dings which I will have fixed soon. I have had it for almost a year and have done a few mods listed below.

Debadged and removed molding
Minor maintenance fluids, belts etc.
Magnaflow exhaust
Corvette servo
Airaid Jr intake and filter
New bowtie and headlights
Led lights on entire vehicle with exception of brakes lights (barn door model)
Powerstop rotors and pads
8" touchscreen radio, backup cam and replaced speakers
20" Silverado SS replicas
I plan on installing a 2/4 drop in the near future as well as painted door handles and front bumper cap. I'm also trying to source an escalade roof rack and rear appliques as well.

I enjoy all of the ideas and info on the forum.
I have previously owned a '99 lowered Silverado, lifted '01 2500hd, lowered '05 Silverado crew cab.

Welcome to the forums. Sorry to hear about your dad. Make sure you take care of his ride.

Man that truck is clean. Condolences for your father, he looks like he really took good care of that truck. I’m sure he would be happy to know it’s yours now and that you’ll continue taking care of it.

Thanks. I definitely will, promised my mom I would keep it in the family it's not a daily driver and I have a three car garage so I will own it a very long time.

Welcome from Chablis to France

your suburban is superb and very clean

The Airaid intake brings more power to the engine, compared to the original system?

I have to say I really like seeing all these clean trucks. Congrats.

The Suburban looks awesome. Partial to that color. I like the look of removing the molding, I might need to look into that. Sorry to here about your dad. Take care of your dad's truck and she will take care of you.

Thx @RAMurphy. It was, but I felt it was the right thing to do. He wanted to buy it from me. How could I do that--as a dad? I've had that car since he was 5, he's 31 now.
