Oops, sorry. Been watching so much College World Series, I got carried away.

I finally pulled the trigger.

Found and purchased, an '02 SOM Z71, Drk. Charcoal Interior -oops- Graphite, Cloth Buckets, A/C, CD, yesterday, June 26, 04.

Payments will be a constant watch. But, to quote so many of you, "You only live once.", and, "If you want it, go for it."

Ambers are in. And, Sylvania "Cool Blue" low beams. These took all of 20 minutes. And, no tools required. How weird is that?

Full-time ambers, 4-on-high, and all-four-tails, will be forth coming. Gotta pace myself, with the mod bug. Money will be tight.

So, guess where my first trip was to, after I dropped off the wife at home?

Yup, Home Depot. Just to get an eye bolt. But, I thought it was fitting, my first stop would be the ideal spot to take an AV. Then, on the way home, I stopped at O'Reilly's to pick up my ambers.

Oh yeah, Hooters will be on the list. Soon.

I know the rules. It's not the best pic. But, here's my new baby...

And, thanks to everyone, for their patience during my whining period, the help with information, and the suggestions for dealing with dealers.

You folks are the greatest! :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love:

Pennfold,
I found a good deal at Husker Auto Group in Lincoln.

Yak,
Thanks. I can't believe I get to be a part of the SOM Nation. Do I need to attend pharmacology school, now?

Ov,
You so funny.

Butch,
Been doing that very thing, this morning. Gotta go in 2nd and 3rd shift, to work. So, I get my garage all to myself. Cheap mods to start. Gotta watch money for awhile. You know.

brsofla,
I hope you (ouch) mean as an average. (ouch) Check my sig (ouch). Dang that (ouch) mod bug (ouch) sure bites (ouch) hard.

Ghost,
You bet. What a great feeling.

Everyone,
Thanks for the congrats. I really feel like I belong, now.

Mod pics on the way.

Have a mod day.

Nice Truck, You are in the same boat as me, it makes money tight.... you have no idea yet!!! >:D... but it's well worth it. Corgrats. ;D

You don't appreciate how easy these are, until you've done it once.

Welcome to the Inner Circle!

Now what was that about $$$ being tight. Dude your well into the Mod Syndrome. Next we will see is a posting from you about the wife saying your Mod Privileges have been revoked!

Good Luck, Pace yourself, and ENJOY the AV!

Dan
 
Thanks, Dan. LOL

Pace myself? I've been waiting since November to get this going. >:D

Besides, all I've spent so far is 8 bucks for ambers.

I love driving it, too.
