Newbie from Minnesota

Postby Farinacci [OP] » Apr 30 2012, 7:02pm

Just purchase a new used 2011 GMC Sierra 1500CC SLT All Terrain. I went from a 1995 Sierra so this is quite the upgrade. If anyone has any advice or comments to make about this particular truck feel free to let me in on any info.

Thanks,
Chad

Welcome! We like to see pictures here, the more, the better. Any ideas on things you want to do to your truck yet?

Welcome to the site Chad.
My advice ; head to your local auto parts store and stock up on truck cleaning supplies. Also a good wax. 2011's look great when they sparkle.. 8-)
