Well I sent my truck down the road today got s good price time to get on with life. Baby coming in August it has been a fun 2+ years on hear thanks to al those who helped along the way.

 

Good luck to ya, you did the right thing. The baby is more important, you can always get another truck.

 

So did you trade it in on a minivan

 

hell no mama has a Durango

I am going back to half ton land Chevy crewcab stubby bed
or maybe even an avalanche if I find one without the molding

 

Youre gonna need the molding, will protect against door dings and shopping carts while you spend copious amounts of time at the grocery store. Congrats.

 

As much as I enjoy my truck, I couldn't justify it without a big old trailer to tow around.

 

just bought me a 05 z71 crew cab stubby 40k on the clock and all the bells and whistles even leather mama loves it

 

Actually, on second thought, what would I replace it with? A 1/2 ton chevy gasser is my first thought. But I get as good/better MPGs, and I can't imagine the maintenance costs or insurance would be any lower on the gasser. My truck is far more capable. I guess if I had to sell the trailer or something I'd just stick with the truck I have now.

 

but I stuck 10k in my pocket main reason I did it

 

You did what you need to do! Hey, just get one later in life so you can come back to the "in" crowd . Good luck with the kid and there aint no shame in making mom happy, cause that makes you happy.... and puts you in good graces to get a new diesel.

 

True. You gotta do what what you gotta do. And we ALL know that when momma's happy.....WE are happy!!

 

I would like to say that this site was a lot of help to me and the members make it happen. I am curious as I move to my new vehicle if some that have moved the opposite way have any sites of similar use for chevy silverados as I just got an 05.

 

I'm sure they do. Congrats. and you don't have to own a CTD just to visit. What else to do when you up all night rocking the youngun...plan on the mods to your next CTD!!!!
