Interior is the light grey, black carpet. I'll rag it hard. Never buy a used vet from me.
My 08 went to the Arab desert. Guy says still running hard.

I have buyers remorse over not ordering a 16' DSOM .... I caved in and took a LB 15' off the lot that I really wasn't crazy about

I know what you mean. There was a 2016 silver base with about 4K in adds I didn't want and it didn't have the Z51 pkg but they priced at $54,000. I thought about it for a bit.
Mine msrp at close to $64,400 for $$60,400. Dlr 25 min away so went for it.

Congrats! I thought about the 2016 but found a steal for a '15 Z51 2LT so I went that route instead.

Next up? Turbo system or supercharger.

In 2010 I sold all my corvette's. Got really busy building a new lake house and other stuff. Closed/sold several of my businesses and now have time again to play some more. This will be a daily driver. It's cheaper than my Dodge cummins crew cab duelly.

I have Powerstrokes (15 quarts of 15w40) and chuckle when people complain about the cost of an oil change. I do mine every 5k miles and fuel filters every 10k.
