Newbie from MI

Postby zmoney [OP] » Jan 02 2012, 5:51am

Hello and Happy New Year! I recently took delivery of a new 2011 Silverado CC 4WD LTZ. It's black with the Z71 appearance package. It looks sweet! I have had the truck for 10 days and absolutely love it! I departed with my beloved 2004 Chevy Avalanche. I had my last truck over 7 years and 85K trouble free miles. Looking forward to another 7+ out of this one. It's a Chevy, so it shouldn't be a problem. :)

I tow a travel trailer that is around 5,000 lbs. The Ave did okay, but I can not wait until I get it hitched up behind the new truck and see what she can do. From what I've read, this should be nothing for my new truck. I have the HD trailering package and the 3.42 rear end.

Anyway, just wanted to say "HI".

Thanks! The color is going to drive me nuts though. Trying to keep it clean is going to be a full time job... :)

About 50 miles north of Detroit. Actually closer to Lapeer if you know where that is.
