Well Finally bought me a boat, and a truck to pull it......

[subysti]

As the song goes got the boat in spring an convinced the wife we needed a new truck. Seeing it will be her vehicle I let her pick it out. I wanted the tundra but she wanted the Silverado, so we got the high country Silverado. I will admit it did ride the nicest out of the all the trucks we tested.

NICE!

Very nice!

Yea we decided on a 3 year lease as this is our first pickumup truck so if we like it in 3 years we buy it or if it sucks we dump it and get my 1st choice the tundra. So I'm kinda torn, I don't want a truck that gives us a lot of problems but I'd kinda like a new tundra in 3 years

Great looking truck!

 

[PEARCE]

Very nice! Most people I know once they have a pickup they are never without again. So if you end up hating the Chevy you'll get your Tundra after all. FYI the "Buy me a Boat" song has a F150 in the video. Did you get a Yeti 110 too? Lol

 

[Suchawittygal]

Beautiful truck!

 

[Bilmon]

congrats, don't ya just love that new car smell

Just need the Yeti 110 to go with it! Nice Rig!

 

[subysti]

I'm thinking the yeti will be a winter purchase for next year.

The 105 fits perfect right in front of the engine hatch if you don't mind stepping on/over the cooler.

Congrats. Great looking truck.

 

[SCSTWG]

The High Country models are very nice. Congrats!

 

[subysti]

Thanks everyone. So far so good. The wife loves it and doesn't let me drive it much.

You'll love the truck. Everyone has their favorite brand and can give you a million reasons why you bought the right truck or the wrong truck. I think you made a good choice - know several folks with the new GM trucks and everyone loves them.

 

[subysti]

Thanks @David D it was tough trying to figure out which truck to get. I researched for a long time and no matter how much you read and watch reviews there are always good reviews and bad reviews. So we just drove a bunch and let my wife decide which one she liked the best. Even among my friends there is a GMC, a couple Rams and a Ford and all say they have the best.

HAHA! Mine is the opposite! We don't listen to much country but the wife keeps singing that song. So this weekend I bought me a truck first, since the Explorer won't pull our new boat when we get it (too heavy). Now I just need the boat to complete the song ......and the Yeti

Is that Germain Ford? The Germains own almost every make of car dealer in this area.

 

[CFD3Captain]

Yep sure is. Same thing here, just about every make except Chevy and Chrysler.. I mean Fiat.
Obviously Ford and I know they have Lexus too as we bought our Explorer there. I also think there is Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Mercedes, Infiniti, BMW

Crazy huh.

 

[subysti]

What made you go with the F150? I liked them but never even drove one. The prices seemed so much higher for the same equipment. Also didn't want twin turbos.
