New guy from CA SF Bay Area

[cooki3mnster]

Hi all!

Name is Andrew and I'm new around here. Just picked up an 05 Yukon XL SLT 4x4 a few weeks ago. I'm located in the East Bay Area about 50 miles or so from San Francisco. Super happy with the new truck and very happy to be here!

Here are a couple pics from the day I picked her up. She is affectionately known as "The Black Pearl". Since I pick it up I have already made some mods. I am going to put together a build thread and go in to more detail there.

Welcome to the forum from Oregon. Check out what you can do to the two rear louver/vent appliques: If it appeals to you.

I went this weekend to try and get a pair of a black Escalade appliques and rear hatch from a U-Pull it yard but they were gone and the rear glass was smashed.

I got white ones and had them painted. It may be easier for you to find the black ones though.

Yeah I might just do that. I saw the black Escalade on Pick n Pulls website and got excited, they put it on the yard on Wednesday and by the time I got there Saturday nothing was left.

Welcome from Southern California! Yeah those eskys come I to the yard and usually within the first two days they get picked over. The vent covers, roof racks and rear glass go pretty quick! Good luck in hunting for the covers!
