  1. pretty much decided on a siverado extended cab
  2. Well I know for sure every now and then you get a lemon. My last vehicle was an astro van. Everything went wrong with it. Now my new s10 now has 200 000 on it and runs great. The only thing thats gone wrong with it has been a fuel pump. Bit to ge honest every gm car iv owned has needed a fuel pump. Saying that a friend has a tundra and at 130000 kms the tranny went. 3600 hundred later for the tranny and he is making payments on a tranny and truck. He told me his next car will be a gm because parts are cheaper and the wreckers are full of them
  3. well I have narrowed my decisions down to the ones listed. Anyone have any idea what kind of kms should be realistic before problems start to arrise in todays trucks.
  4. I am not interested in the foreign models due to the poor fuel economy they get and the high price they demand.
  5. bump
  6. Since there has been so many threads on here lately thought maybe I could get some opinions on a few trucks. Firstly I own a gmc sonoma 4.3 and have loved the truck. I do however find it is thirsty when im towing my boat 16.5 with a fifty. I kinda think maybe its gearing thats the problem but not sure. I am looking right now at a few trucks and am basing my decision on gas mileage in general and towing gas mileage. So any opinions on the trucks im considering would be great 2005 chevrolet silverado 4.8 litre v8 2wd 2005 chevrolet colorado 5 cylinder 2wd (wondering if the inline 5 would tow better than what i got. 2006 chevrolet silverado 4.3 v6 2wd wondering if the gearing is better for towing even though its the same motor I got ford f150 v6
  7. so all the way to the island was slush I guess,.
  8. what part of the lake were you on. Was going to head out of innisville tomorow but not if its all slush
  9. Okay i have a question for you all. Does the chev silverado 4wd get the same gas milleage as the 2wd when its not in 4wd
  10. Check out the new berkely lightning rods. I was impressed with the price and quality of them.
  11. I went cheap with my first baitcaster. ended up with birdsnest and gave up and went back to spinning. Well this year after 5 years away picked up a quantum energy and love it and find it easy to use.
  12. Iv been shopping for a boat now for awile and deals are hard to come by. With the canadian dollar everything has gone up 20 percent. I have also heard of production cutbacks so the demand will be higher
  13. I have gone back to regular fireline myself lol.
  14. I agree i stopped in there on friday didn;t buy a thing. Stuff was either overpriced even on sale or just closeout junk colours ect that is outdated. For example stopped by grimsby tackle today and picked up a quantum energy baitcaster for 99 bucks basspros sale is 137.99 that easy math. Oh and by the way their sportsman show price is going to be 99 no taxes.
