Leecher Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 Like the title says.... took some pics of my new ride today (Chevrolet Cruze LT Turbo 2011) and thought I share them with you..... GM really put the full package into this one and cannot be any happier with it Fully loaded with it's 138 hp 1.4L ECOTEC Turbocharged I-4 , 6 speed automatic tranny with the option of manually changing gears while cruzing, AC, electric windows & mirrors, etc.... etc.... an amazing car to say the least I'm sure you've seen the commercial on TV.... and the color they show is exactly what I purchased (Crystal red) real nice color Here it is in multiple shots Front view Side view From the back The inside driver side Passenger side and the back Simply put.... it's just a delight to drive Now onto the cranks.... I've been putting together a few additional cranks for the tackle box that comes in a kit from Luremaking.com.... these are plastic body baits with rattles and the color of choice was white Couple of pics Not done yet but will post the final results when I'm done. Hope you enjoy!!! Tight lines Leechman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Caster Posted November 14, 2010 Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 The cruize is definitly a step up from the cobalt. The interior looks great doesn't it? 138 hp is healthy power from a 1.4L Turbo...it would save weight on the front end too. Congrats on the new ride. Good luck with the cranks, are the bodies exactly identical or do you find that some are better made than others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 5'8" and sat back there for a short time and can't complain about being cramped Only draw back, you have to lean sideways to look up front and that's it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nipfisher Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 Missing your front licence plate Actually when we were teenagers and we would go to Quebec to party, we had to pull off our front plates and back our cars up against a wall or snow bank. lol. The french boys didn't like us hitting on their pretty girls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, thats who I ordered from as per your suggestions. I can't wait to get to painting them customs. I hand carved one a few weeks back out of some cedar, and it was strangely relaxing. I worked on it for about 10 hours straight before I realized how long it had been, haha. But yeah, ordering the prefab takes alot of the work out, thats for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
