Looks like it's just getting broken in!

Paint still looks new!

Like a rock indeed!

I love that bodystyle and wish I would have bough a 2000 K2500 HD old bodystyle alas I can't and I couldn't get a deal on a used one. Anyways nice pics. I like your CB antenna setup on the tool box and your back up lights look like a fellow truck user..

Thanks for the comments guys. This truck has definatly showed to me what GM is made of. Throughout the life of the truck (my dad bought new 11/93) the only major problems were rusted out freeze plug, dead starter, alternator needed rebuild, cracked flywheel, and worn out AC compressor.

As far as mods:

-GM-Trucks.com decal

-Uniden PC69XL cb with Cobra powermic, Galaxy 225 linear (not hooked up presently) and 5' Wilson Silverload antenna

-UWS Gullwing box

-9 year old drop in bedliner and window tint

-Silverstar low beams

-KC Hilites Quad beam relay

-Pioneer Premeir DEH7300 headunit w/ powered Bazooka 6" bass tube and Pioneer 4X6s in the dash

-Hella backup lights

-updated centercaps on wheels

-Michelin LTX M/S 30X9.5R15

-Magnaflow cat back

-Goodyear Super Hi-Miler hoses

edit: Oh yea and the little Chik-fil-a cow that my friend tie-wrapped to my hitch

All I can say is wow! It still looks brand new. Interesting to see where the red line begins 4.5?

Very nice looking truck

Thanks. As for the redline, with that little 5.0L if you stand on it (which doesnt happen too often) the 4l60E will shift right at 4,500. I am currently starting to look at newer trucks because for this truck's 200,000 mile mark it may be getting a GM crate motor. Right now I am lookin at their Fast Burn 385, the 385 HP 350. Then I will be considering stock sounding exhaust to make a nice little sleeper/rice killer.
