Intimidating... or what?

[Pale Rider]

How would you like seeing that bear down on you in your rear view mirror in your little Mazda Miata, or Ford Escort... :laugh:

[shattered]

Wouldn't phase me in the least.. I can either pull a Glock, forcing you to slow down, or go around me, or I can likely outrun your ass after I piss you off by slowing down. :laugh2:

Considering a miata could out-run it....No biggy. :)

:D Great truck, though, Pard'ner

[Abbey Marie]

Well, let's put it this way. If that was barreling down the left lane behind me, I'd get over.

Unless I knew it was Pale driving, 'cause we all know he's a sweetie!

I forced a fully loaded tractor trailer down to 30 mph one time for doing just that. :laugh2:

I used to drive tractor trailer, and I'll tell ya, they can't stop very fast, you were taking a big chance doing that. Seriously.

[Pale Rider]

Pfft! I'll race ya. :D

Oh I figure I could find a place to race where you couldn't go, and I'd win. :D

And just for record, that big ole' red truck has a 350 Vortec in it with a cold air intake, flow master exhaust, and the ECM has a performance upgrade download in it. Top that off with a five speed manual. It'll smoke the 35" tires on it.

Put that in English. Like this:

I tried to laugh, but just couldn't. I'm not a redneck, or from the south.

[glockmail]

I used to drive tractor trailer, and I'll tell ya, they can't stop very fast, you were taking a big chance doing that. Seriously. The guy was on my ass for 3 miles on an empty interstate, three lanes in our direction, center lane. We came to te bottom of a long uphill grade, and I just slowly let off the gas. He lost all his momentum and was never able to catch back up to me. :laugh2:

[Monkeybone]

sorry Pale, just used to ppl that drive those truck being loud-mouthed rich kids who think big tires and a lift means that you are the hot-rod shiznat. being what you said about under the hood, kudos.

I'm a died in the wool hotrod/mechanic. Have been all my life. It's in my blood. I can't help it. The bigger, louder, more powerful, cool something is, the better I like it. There's lots of people just like me around. The country is packed full of hotrod clubs, Corvette clubs, street rod clubs, customs clubs, on and on. America basically has had a long affair with the car. Just to what extreme you like your car/truck to be is a personal taste issue.

I used to drive a 2004 Freightliner Columbia. It had a 460 hp Series 60 Detriot diesel in it, and it had like 1,500 ft. lbs. of torque, or some outrageous amount like that, with a nine speed tranny. It would pull 60,000 lbs up a 5% grade at speed. If you'd have slowed down in front of me, I'd just have passed you. :D

Hate to break it to you, but your little car couldn't outrun that truck on it's best day and the truck's worst. Your engine would burn up first.

Who the hell are you kidding? It'd take that 2 ton block of lead 20 min just to get UP to speed..

Cool truck. I have the 2001 version ... 2500 HD ... same color. But alas, I have no rebel flag nor rifle rack either.:laugh2:

Absolute underestimation. Like I said, that big ole' truck can SMOKE those 35 inch tires on it. It's got enough power to scare the hell otta ya.

I had a boat load of Chevys Gunny. This is my first GMC. Not really a whole lot of difference, but I really like the front end on this GMC better than the Chevy, meaning the grill and such. I think it's cool. I really like this body style, and I've heard of guys putting straight axles under these and getting rid of the independent front suspension. Makes them a lot stronger off roaders. I don't believe I'd ever do anything like that to this one. They ride real nice with that front end, and I'm pretty sure I'd never use this one for serious off roading anyway. It's too pretty. I'd buy a little old jeep for that.

I was in the center of a three lane highway (one direction). He could have passed me on either side for 3 or more miles. But he insisted on riding my ass, so I nailed him for it.

Probably some young punk with an attitude. He/she deserved what you did with that being the case.

[glockmail]

Probably some young punk with an attitude. He/she deserved what you did with that being the case. Or an old punk. I couldn't see him or her behind the radiator. Most truckers are responsible people, and they have a very difficult job with little 4 wheelers pulling out in front of them all day long, oblivious to the fact that it takes such a long time to stop.

It takes my truck about as long to get up to speed as it takes your little grocery getter. And when yours is redlined, I'm cruising.

This is my first GMC. Traded a 98 Z78 Silverado for it.

I'm looking at some old jeeps right now. What I'd REALLY like to find is a 67-68 Bronco. Put 9" straight axles front and rear, and build my own 302 to drop in it.

Those are top notch, worked-over race cars. Your average Joe doesn't have one. He has a Shattered grocery getter with a dent in one or more places.:laugh2:
