Default Sold Vette

I traded my Vette in for a 2008 Hummer Sut.
This forum has been a great place for info and I,m sure I will continue to come here and read the posts.
Hopefully I can find a Hummer forum that is as helpful and enjoyable
Thanks for all the great info

Bye! Enjoy your new ride. Hummers are painted with ABB equipment, the company I work for. I have been in their paint shop many many times. Bet you don't see as much orange peel on the new Hummer!

That's quite a switch!

Driving to that hilltop in your avatar?

New offspring?

Getting headers for that monster?

Best of luck to you.

I have a H2 as well and I love it. It's great for the winters when the vette sits in the garage.

Good Luck and enjoy. Remember to save the wave.

Had an 03 for a couple of years. Took it in for service and the DIC said I was getting 12mpg. The service writer wanted to know how I was getting such good mileage. HA! The one I had actually got 12mpg all the time but according to the guys at the dealer that was great. It is also the reason I sold. However, at that time they had a really good resale value and I actually made money when I sold it. Well, I got more than I owed after 2 years with out putting any money down. I always consider that a win.
