It needs to have A/C and cruise control and prefer cloth interior. 100k miles or less preferred but higher miles would be considered depending on the condition. Since I...

  11. V8 Engine & Drivetrain
    I'm loving all the buzz about the 2015 355's. But, GM's killing it by not offering a V-8. No ZQ-8s? OK the 5.3L is a lot of CI, but why not a 4.8L? Every review about the 355 says "average truck overall. But. does offer a V8". So they finally make a great truck, & them dump the V8...

    Hey y'all. I really like this forum. Excited to be a part of it. I just bought this truck 5/2/2014. Wasn't looking for a 355 specifically. But, when I saw this baby I pounced on it. 4x4 & V8 with only 10,563 miles at $3.5K under blue book. Hell, the thing is still under the 3yr/36,000...

I have read in ls1 tech and whatever else came up on Google but didn't really know if...
  15. Lowering
    This last Saturday I traded my 09 reg cab Colorado with a 4 banger for a 09 Colorado crew cab 2wd with the 5.3. I am interested in lowering it in the future but I am not familiar with the suspension set up on the new truck. The rear axle is under the leaf springs and it has a fairly high ride...
  16. V8 Engine & Drivetrain
    So I thought that I'd put a buying guide together that we could sticky for those that are shopping for a custom cool air intake (CAI) for their 5.3L truck. Let me know if I missed any and I'll update this post. All prices listed are MSRP, you'll be able to find them at a lower cost if you...
