It's been in the family for 13 years without an issue, and Lord knows I need a winter beater haha. I think it serves its purpose well.

Hell yeah it would. But I wouldn't mess with the trophy car.

On another note, forecasted for 75 and sunny Saturday. Gonna have to be a cruise day if I don't have work.

I agree, they take a beating and keep on going. My Tacoma has 183k miles and still going strong. It's 13 years old too.

Nice. I just hit 150,000 last month. I want to replace it with a Colorado when the Camry dies, but it may be years before that happens at this rate. Which is good, because my money needs to be saved for a new roof.

so after looking at the pictures for the 2019 i can honestly say i am not a fan at the moment. i was hoping it would look like the renders and was semi thinking about trading for a 2019 1LE. not so much now lol

still want to see it in person. maybe it won't look as much like a 2 door Dodge Charger as the pictures make it seem

Yeah I saw the pictures and hated it. The only thing I liked was the hood. I'll be upgrading in a few years, so my option is pretty much wait for the next gen, or at that point find a used 16-18, but meh at that point they will be a several years old. However that 10 speed in the SS would be pretty cool. But it really just looks like a charger, with a bad body kit.

The v6 looks like a smashed down Grand Cherokee front end. Not a fan

Someone did a photoshop with a body color grille and that didnt look bad. I dont mind the rear end but man that front needs some major work. It looks way too much like a charger

I'm just staying ahead of you...lol. I got the new roof in 5 months ago. Next big thing on my list is new carpet. I have put it off for 3 years. But I think the wife is going to finally pull the trigger and surprise me...lol.

I really like the new Canyon and Colorado, and would look at them really hard before I trade in on the next vehicle.

yeah, a little confused with the front end. Seems like someone agreed with "add more plastic on the front".

But these are a jewel:
* Camaro SS now offered with 10L80 10-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission featuring custom launch control and line lock
* Chevrolet Infotainment 3 systems, including available navigation
* New available Rear Camera Mirror*
* New available Forward Collision Alert*

Nice! Treat yo' self. After the roof will be replacing the 30 year old furnace, then replacing the 20 year old a/c condenser, then remodeling the bathroom, then remodeling the kitchen lol. I'm picking up a second job at an HVAC company so that 1) I can make more money to afford these things and 2) hopefully I can score a sweet company discount on all those things.

The previous owners of mine decided to throw on a 15 year roof when they did it...15 years ago. F*ckers. Putting on a 50 year next spring is my goal. Then my future kids can worry about it lol.

I love how you can barely tell a Canyon from a Sierra when its in the wild, but I'm not one for leather and frills (hence the 1SS), so will probably go Colorado WT (4wd, crew cab, long bed). Then I'll get it wrapped in solid matte camo green (just the green, not actual camo).
