FINALLY got my new truck!!!!

well, kinda...I put money down and got my capital one loan check in hand....just got to get to the dealership tomorrow to pick it up!
 
It's a 98 chevy 3500 crew cab dually custom conversion.
 
It has a 454 Big Block and should get around 12-14 mpg.....at least I got something with better MPH than my H3!!!
 
Here's some pics:
 
 

 
 
 

 

 
 

And I can bet a week's salary you will not get one one finger salute...ever!!! From a Leaf  Licker
 
 
What in the hell are you needing something like that for?..if you don't mind me asking...just curious what you're into...Like farming?
 
 
Looks good bro

Damn dude are you pulling a freakin' house with that thing?

You going on tour?
 
Looks good Mike.

Congrats on the new purchase! Looks like a van on the inside - plently of room for the whole family!

Actually, it's kinda strange but growing up when everyone had a "dream" car like a ferrari or corvette, mine was always a dually....don't know why I just always loved them. When my son was born I had to sell my dodge ram dually for a more practical family car because we only had the dually and the camaro at the time. My wife promised me when she saw how upset I was as my dually drove away with it's new owner that when we bought another truck I could get a dually. I held her to her promise We still have the H3 for a practical family car...this is just MINE!!!!
 
Dennis, I fish alot of BASS tornaments down south and I didn't want to abuse the lil I5 in the h3 by towing my boat from NJ to FL or alabama 4-5 times a year, thats why I needed a better towing truck. Plus this one is all custom so I got a bonus out of the deal

Looks awesome..very very roomy.

You may have fished a tournament against my Dad, he fishes tournaments too. He goes to Alabama alot - mostly to lake weiss (I think thats it). He's a BassCat man.

Got to give it you...you got Balls my friend!

Bass Cats are nice boats, I looked at a few before I bought my Gambler. The only lake I ever fish in Bama is Guntersville....If they had season changes like we do up north....I would sell everything I own and move there tomorrow...I love Alabama!

good lookin truck
congrats
when i fished turneys(about 15 years ago) i fished a hydrasport

I've seen a few but never been in one, I think they went under a few years back and ended up selling their molds. Only reason I got my gambler is that I do alot of side arm skip casting and the front eck on the gamble is big enough to land a helicopter on. My stratos that I sold to get teh gambler was ok but I always hit the drivers cockpit windshield when I used a longer rod...used to drive me nuts!!!

YO YO pimp my ride!  Nice truck Killer!

Congrats on your new---eeeerrr used cheby man--Hope it works out for you. My only concern for you would be that it is 9 almost 10 years old, altho it looks in mint condition and looks to have been well taken care of. How many miles on it? Again, good luck with it!!!

Nice

I was actually only looking for a 98-99 chevy or gmc. I was a GM tech working in a dealership that sold mainly trucks from 96-99....I am very very familiar with this year/model truck. So I'm really not worried about anything breaking. there is 60,000 on the clock.

Hell of a beast ! enjoy it and do not let your wife drive it!!!!

That is a nice looking truck. Bet it ide nice too.  You will be sure to get lots of looks!
