Hello from NC.

Just bought a ‘12 SSV In Dec with 80k on it as a DD and weekend overlander. It’s cool to see all the PPV/SSVs in the forum - feels like home. I’ve done really only cosmetic stuff so far (tint, new radio, reverse cam, pushbar, black emblems and grille) also put in a CCM level kit. New tires and wheels are on the way and after that I’ll probably install new rotors and pads. Looking forward to learning more from the group here. So far I love the SSV. Here’s some pics of her - sorry for all the salt - we had a snow storm here recently and did not wash her yet.

Day I bought her

Nice looking truck! Super clean. Pics of the inside?

Several NC folks in this sub-forum, let alone the rest of the board. And I'm not far from you, I'm over in Mebane. :)

It a 15footer beauty for sure, up close there’s a lot of scuffs . I just washed all the salt/snow off and you can definitely see the buffing swirl marks from when the dealer removed the cop decals. This is in addition to all the scrapes and dings from being a cop car. I’m thinking of either getting it color corrected or maybe just vinyl wrap it.

DPS just peeled the decals on both of the twins. This is theothertwin shortly after I got if.
The door cleaned up pretty readily. The fender is faded, and kinda looks stealt, so I’ve left it. The K9 sticker on both quarters is a little rough still.

I remember having to cut mine to get those NC Highway Patrol markings off mine from the vinyl. Hate it sounds like they butchered yours, I'll consider myself lucky for what little bit I had to deal with.
