Theres that guy on FSC that sells reprogrammed computers. I might look into that. It only has 900 miles on it though, I've never had a truck with less than 36,000 before.

dimerunner88 · 10-05-2008, 10:12 PM

cool,i wanna get a programmer for mine but money is an issue right now. does it have the 4-speed or did you get lucky and get the 6-speed?

nox · 10-05-2008, 10:28 PM

i dunno, let me go grab the window sticker.

nox · 10-05-2008, 10:34 PM

4spd. I didn't even know there was a 6spd option.

The other specs are 5.3 flex fuel, 2wd, 3.42 G80 rear,

dimerunner88 · 10-05-2008, 10:39 PM

cool,the 6spd are for 09 but a few 08's have them here and there.

edit: flex fuel ftw,has bigger fuel lines and injectors so you can add forced induction without changing the fuel system

eriley · 10-05-2008, 10:41 PM

wow way to research your shit first...lol jk still a sweet vehicular vehicle truck thing

dimerunner88 · 10-05-2008, 10:43 PM

the 6-spds are all that great,6th gear is similar to 4th on the old ones,it just has a 4:1 first gear.

EDIT: most of my time on FSC is reading instead of posting unlike here,lol

2nd EDIT: gear ratios

6L80
1 2 3 4 5 6 R
4.027 2.364 1.532 1.152 0.852 0.667 3.064

4L60
1 2 3 4 R
3.06 1.63 1.00 0.70 2.29

bleh, I got the options I wanted. I went late in the month so we had a hell of a time finding this one. (Had to take dealer stock to get the GM pricing)

actafool4187 · 10-06-2008, 02:55 AM

silverado's used to be badass. i agree with everybody who says they get uglier each year. sorry man. i'm sure it's nice, just ugly imo

what years are you talking about? i think the new ones are ugly stock,once you start modding them they look better.

bucko · 10-06-2008, 03:11 AM

Full size chevy trucks have not looked good since they changed mid-model, when was that, 99? The heavy-duty ones, when they still had the round front ends and the big bulge in the hood that made it look like an old '70 c10, where the shit. But its been down hill ever since then. Great trucks I am sure, just my opinion.

nox · 10-06-2008, 07:27 AM

I didn't like them at all when they first came out, but they have been growing on me steadily the past couple years. I agree with Tom though, they look even better when you start modifying them.

brakenit · 10-06-2008, 09:33 AM

Bryan, there is most likely someone local that could tune that thing for you for about what it'd cost to do it mail order. The benefit of using a local is that if any drivability issues arise you can get them to tweak it for you. The software I have is actually capable of accessing the computer on that truck, but I don't have any interest in tuning anyone's vehicle other than my own.

nox · 10-06-2008, 03:45 PM

i believe that picture is a 3/6 or a 4/6.

I hope it's expensive so I can talk myself out of it.

dimerunner88 · 10-06-2008, 03:46 PM
