My new wheels

Post by BADs Crew »

Since the Blazer has been in the shop I've been driving this. It doesn't seem as quick on the take off as my crew but when it kicks in it really goes. tomorrow will be my third day with the truck. I had to give up the crew to the other half. This was the only thing they had to rent and she wont drive a full size. I don't know how I'm going to feel getting back in the crew after sitting so high for 3 days. I might just have to get a lift. :)

It does shake a little at 120 and it makes a funny noise when you put it in reverse doing 40. :lol:

They dropped the max from 99mph? And, that was on police packaged tahoes?

Just about everyone of our vehicles(except Interceptor model Crown Vic) come right off the dealer's fleet sales lots. The service buys a bunch of surplus white tahoes, vans, f-250, c2500, 2500, suburban, excursion etc. with all kinds of expensive, useless options (onstar, satelite ready radio, plush rear seats, power windows/door locks/seats, dual zone AC, etc.. etc.. Then to top it all off, they spend $5000 plus for emergency lights, decals and such. Huge waste of money versus a job specific purpose built from the factory. But someone has to bail out our American brand car dealers.

Currently, I ride one of these everyday.....Image


Dollar for dollar I'm much more productive on this thing versus the almost $40,000+ spent on anything else we use. Just today we (6 of us)apped over 93 bodies in just under 4 hours versus the rest of the shift 30+ agents in the 8 hour shift. :D :D

P.S. it also veryyyyyyy..... FUN.
