Default The PERFECT truck to tow your vette
Huh? LSx engine for plenty of grunt, good brakes and a nice hitch setup would do wonders. Even room in the bed for your gear!

At least all of the stuff you need can fit in back (4 tires, oil, water, jack, etc.)

But that's an LT motor, not an LS.
If I put my bike in the back, I'd have a hard time deciding which one to run on the track.

From what i can tell the workmanship looks pretty good.

But i'd really wish GM would bring these over here.
