It makes enouugh difference apparantly. And just throwing it out there chevy has always made due with a higher displacement engine look at the cars and trucks now

Rad you have a nice looking truck for a chevy and instead of painting that chrome strip black why don't you try this stuff called duplicolor shadow, its like a diy black chrome kit I think it would go pretty good with your theme

Not quite always...but its ok. Ford is better at making better power with less displacement.

I get all my paint work done for free. I sell Autobody supplies so I have hook ups.

People who drive Hummers receive almost five times as many traffic tickets as the average driver, according to a new study.

Quality Planning Corp., which helps insurance companies identify risk, surveyed data from 1.7 million drivers and found the Hummer H2 and H3 are the most frequently ticketed vehicles on the road, surpassing even the 565-horsepower Mercedes CLK 63 AMG. At the other end of the spectrum, the Jaguar XJ GMC Sierra CL1500 pickup was the vehicle least likely to attract the attention of Johnny Law.

The study found those who drive the leviathans get 4.63 times as many tickets as the average driver, something the researchers attribute to the feeling of invincibility that comes from driving a rolling bank vault.


There are some other things you can predict from a person's choice of wheels, like

He owns a Prius, he voted guilty.
She owns a Subaru Legacy, she smells of patchouli.
He owns a Smart. He prints fliers linking McDonald's to terrorism.
She owns a Chevy Colorado. It's parked next to the Legacy.
He own a Lotus, I smashed him in the face with a brick, damn, where are his keys, this thing uses keys, right? Shit, five-oh--

Just something I found...mentioned a colorado, so it fits.
