Good plan Serge. The 20's are already an upgrade on it

Definitely a good hookup you have there! i have a local shop that gets me aftermarket parts at cost, but never ordered GM parts. Gonna have to give him a call tomorrow.

Gonna be selling the AEM...if you are still interested. It is already taken off my Nali...

I'm actually okay for now Jenna, but thank you.

However I'm going to shoot you a PM in the next couple of days about some other stuff.

Btw, I only drove her for like 10 minutes today (and it's a snowstorm out there right now) ... but one of my first impressions is how the 6.2 with resonator has more exhaust rumble than my 6.0 Hybrid with the resonator taken out.

I like it. :)

I do like the exhaust tones as well, but I HATE the tailpipe!

Don't you know that Serge prefers under the table ****** favors?

How do you know??? :supergay:

Honestly, i got really lucky.

I'm always nice to people anyway but I always make sure to tip the mechanics/painters. Sometimes if I'm in their hood I stop by and bring donuts or cookies to them. The receptionist loves flowers, even inexpensive flowers ... you'd be amazed how people respond to genuine kindness. Especially when their day is filled with insurance adjusters and endless customer whining. :shrug:

WTF? You never got me any flowers?!?!?

Yeah they're sold.

The calculation is actually pretty simple ...

I don't have to recover the full price of the 375s if I sell the HyHoe with them on. The difference between selling the 20s and buying new 375s is about $1000. If I think that the 375s will add more than $1000 in value to the HyHoe then it makes sense to sell her with them on ... if they add less than $1000 then it's better to sell her which the 20s on.

My opinion is that they make such a huge difference in the presentation of the vehicle that they will add more than $1k ... but you guys seem to disagree.

I don't disagree. I think OEM 22" wheels on the HyHoe will fetch more money when you sell it.

I do agree with SCSS. Just like when selling a house "curb appeal" means a lot and will capture more buyers quicker which means more $$$ at time of sale.

That's for sure! I took the resonator off a couple months ago and really unleashed the beast. Not crazy loud, but it's a nice rumble around town especially getting up to 3k rpm. Not a big change at highway speeds though.

After 238 replies I would for sure hope we can talk about something else.

BTW, I do not think that Mr. Serge has any time to talk about this anymore anyhow, as he is currently sweating through the third shirt changing wheels on a HyHoe/Denali, which will be changed again in another week. :shrug:

Boy, just for once I would like to have his worries. Or rather, HAVE NO OTHER WORRIES, NO WORRIES AT ALL.
