Chris, I was going to say that you would need to tell everyone here what a swamp cooler was, but I am old and slow and that has taken care of itself. I lived in a trailer outside of Phoenix for 11 years and that is all we had to keep the house cool, I got good at fixing them when the spiders got clogged up, or the pump quit.

If I ever find pics of my pickup airborne I will be pissed.

Speaking of your truck. What happened to your fender flares?

I guess it never had them. Didn't come with them and there was no sign of it ever having them. Maybe has something to with the Silverado Limited Edition thing.

Odd. I just assumed all the Z71's that year had them.

I didn't even know it was a Z71 til I checked the RPO codes, haha.

Haha! how long did it take you to find out?

kstruckcountry · May 20, 2014

At least 6 months after I got it

Better late than never!

Yep. And then I took off the Z71 shocks and put on the 5100's, haha. I think most of the Z71 deal is just name recognition. I do know people who refuse to go to any shocks other than factory since they're "special". But if GM would give the package something to write home about, like real tires, I think people would get it just for that.

I agree. The only thing that'll be left on mine from the Z71 package will be the flares, and skid plates.

I took off my z71 decals cause I figured mine is a bit higher than GM's specs lol

Sent while drinkin' a cold one...

Just gave into the peer pressure and actually signed up on Facebook. Guess I'm like 5 years late lol

I miss when it was just for college people. Once they started letting anyone in is when all the stupid games and apps and stuff started coming around. You should delete it now before it's too late. In August it'll be 10 years on FB for me if I remember correctly.

How was your cowpie dinner?

It was a turkey and beef meat loaf, some recipe she got from a coworker. It tasted.

The cooler is for my garage. It was a nice day but it is going to get very hot very soon. I need to get a new drain plug and water connection for it before I csn use it

they are great for the garage, but for a full house i still like AC unit..back in the day for a full house swamps did a good job, but now with the higher humidity over 30% their not so good. i have friends with down draft coolers and there constantly fighting mold, mildew issues from leaking coolers..but to each their own..
