Default New Hardbar tow vehicle..

I got a new truck last week, today is the first day I have driven it in the dry!

It is an 07 Silverado 2500 HD with the 6 speed, 6.0L, full LTZ interior. It has an Ipod input, Nav, Bose, and if you look closely, you can see the integrated trailer brake controller in the lower left sid of the dash. I'll see how it tows Monday! The trans has a paddle shifter mode, very cool.

I'm jealous. My '01 Tahoe LT 4wd 5.3L has about 100Kmi on it now... guess I should change the transmission fluid. :-)

Hey, did you jack that thing up or do you rock climb with that beauty?

Can't wait to hear how she tows and if ya get over 12mpg (towing)!!!

I would love to find a tow vehicle that got 20-25 on the highway under a load!

Thanks! There is the little round sticker that says it was made in Pontiac, Michigan.
