    Yeah, I'm not sure what the story on this one. I was thinking it could have been or would be a economical little car to tow behind RV possibly. 19k miles extremely low for a 2015.

    My 2015 has 98k on it, so yes... excellent vehicle for the price!
    And no real disrespect about the GM thing, I guess living with a die hard GM brother in law that has a head harder than a diamond will do that to me!:argue:


    Believe it or not, I was a kid once, and thought Cherry Bomb glass packs would be awesome on a V6 thunderbird...
    I guess it’s a right of passage thing, and loud is cool! :cool:

    I hope this one will last a long time for him.
    I wanted the Blazer fixed so he has 4x4 to get around when snowing.
    Kids; amazing how different two siblings can be. Boggles my mind. Love them both but they're just so much different.

    I see that contrast in my 2 boys even at this age, ones pushing the limits and going in head first (youngest) and the other is analyzing everything and making cautious choices about everything, including breakfast. :facepalm:

    You know by now that is a military footlocker? An old one.

    Edit, caught up on thread. Yes, that is a military footlocker. I can't read all that's on the lid.

    It filled in after that. The plane from Minneapolis to Atlanta was pretty damn full.

    They handed out a bag with a small bottle of water, a pack of almonds and a pack of cookies but I didn't really want to take my mask off. After I got the rental car, I forgot my sanitizer in the trunk so I went from a protein drink at 6am to a bit of turkey and dressing at 7pm. That wasn't smart.
