Well, added two new vehicles to the stable today and got rid of an old one(F*ck Lexus)
Wife went and picke up our brand new 2008 Chevy Trailblazer SS today and got rid of the piece RX300(good ridance).
We got the 3SS trim with the full Navi package and Sun and Sound package, W00T!!
Still in Iraq right now and will be for another 7 weeks, so she gets to enjoy it all while I am gone.
And on Monday my "new" bike was delivered and stored into the garage until I get home
It's 1995 Honda Nighthawk 250CC, something for me to learn on this year before I get my VRSCDX Night Rod next year

Very nice! I always liked the Trailblazers. Didn't realize you still had your Sunfire. I was thinking I remembered you selling it. Guess I had you confused with someone else.
Nah, still have the Sunfire
Will hopefully be putting the new built motor in this summer when I get home
sweet bike dude!
forget the DX, get an X. you know you want the silver and orange flames, it's sex.
Grats on the second LS, but my heart goes out to the 250...I always wanted to gut one of those and turn it into a clean little cafe racer.
No way man! I love the Denim Black of the DX and the 240 tire
Plus it sits lower stock too and mid controls are good for my short ass
well damn, if you weren't in irag right now defending my freedoms, i'd call you a prick. but instead i just have to say thanks you lucky bastard!
GO PATS!!!
I want a C5 so bad.. in red color.
You should lower the vette with a longer stud bolts in the rear and removed stock bolt in the front.
Nice trailblazer SS, also didnt know u still got the fire! Very nice!
Oh trust me, the Vette will be lowered as soon as the driveway gets redone. I scrape the airdamn pulling in at in angle as it sits right now
Plan on getting a Tune, dropping it, tint, and maybe intake/exhaust for it right now
Will let you guys know how it all works out!
so wait.... you have a TBSS... Vette... Motorcycle................................................................and a sunfire?
what the hell is wrong with you

the X model has a 240, too. and the DX has forward controls, the only model that has mids is the standard D Night Rod. and I have a set of 12" Progressive 412's for your bike when you get it (lowers 1.5", about 1/2" lower than a DX) - i'm going air ride.
see, just get the X:
X = sex
Damn I thought they had mids, must be because they sit lower that I can reach easier, ah well
Plus I like the blacked out look, it is much different than the typical Harley chrome
I have had my heart set on the DX ever since the wife and I saw it on our honeymoon in Aruba
Nice pick up on the SS, if you havent already check out trailvoy.com
If i can recommend any tips, get a vector tune done on it. Makes it a whole new truck, plus it helps out the mpg as well. Welcome to the Club!
trailvoy.com is nice I'm on there though I have a colorado
Nice.
But calling that Lexus a piece when you still own a Sunfire... Umm, yea.
--------------------------------------------------------
2002 Sunfire -->
- Ractive steering wheel
- ASA 17" EM9 + Nexen N5000 215/45/17 (steelies for winter)
- D-Spec Lowering kit @ 1.4" (issues currently
)
- Rockford P250.1 + MTX MZS1004 + Panasonic CQ-C8313U head unit
- Barely legal tint.
Yeah, already on TrailVoy and been doing some searching around, lots of ideas for the future
As for the Lexus, do a little reading firemachine:
http://www.consumeraffairs.com/automotive/lexus.html and put your foot back in your mouth. I had to pay $4700 to replace the engine in that POS because of sludge issues. And BTW, thank you for driving a green car to make up for my two LS2s

They won't be making them then...
Regardless, congrats Chris! We added to the driveway last weekend, too
What did you and Karo get, Steph?
I am just glad we have the 5yr/100,000mile warranty, that will be nice to have
Not a big fan of these jbodies, even though I own a Cavy for a DD. But that Vette and TBSS look good. I got a buddy who has a TBSS and loves it. Good buy!
Dont lower the vette. lol I hit about everything and mines only about 1 inch lower than stock..
Oh, I am going to slam the crap out of it
I hate the stock 4x4 ride height
Luckily the roads where I live aren't that bad, so I don't have to worry about hitting anything, until I get to my driveway

Doesn't mean I wont be able to get one.... You see the resale on these things? in our area it doesn't make sence for us to buy a new one anyway...
besides, she made the cav last this long (the only car she has owned) I don't think picking up a truck with 15-20k on the clock is gonna kill her
** FOR SALE**

Spent the past couple weeks on Trailvoy.com, can say for sure that I am NOT impressed with the site
Found TBSSowners.com, and after spending a couple hours on there, that site is much better than Trailvoy. The information is better, the members are knowledgable, and the actual site itself loads a lot nicer.
Just thought I would share
