i know this is old, but you guys keep saying "its a zero because it is an rpo code..... i think your example was "z71 or z28 or z51" which it does look pretty consistant with letter-number-number configuration.. but i got one thing to say...ZR1.... blows that theory to **** huh?
just my .02

Not really. The deal with RPO codes and VIN numbers the auto industry doesn't use the letter 'o' or 'i' to avoid confusion with numbers '1' and '0'.

In the case of Z06, the 0 is a zero. It can be said different ways though.

I say Z06. Zero not o. But who really cares when we're going to be 20 trillion in debt and that loser got reelected again because of all the moron population with their hand out. And now they're going to take my AR15 away if they can.
Sorry, my rant is over now.
