[QUOTE="MattRobPhoto, post: 1391718, member: 36517"] Ok... so, here we go! I have had Chevy 1500s for years. I lift them 4" and put wheels/tires and make them look all rough and rugged and they look REALLY nice. My current is a 2017... looks great! Drives and rides like crap in my opinion and while it's a 5.7 it's a slug! I've ALWAYS wanted a Raptor! It's one of those trucks that are simply, BAD ASS. I don't HAVE to do a damn ass think to it to make it LOOK bad ass and/or to make it drive and feel BAD ASS! Yes, I can upgrade stuff but I don't have to! What a nice truck. It's pricey, but I have learned. you get what you pay for. IF you by a 29K Truck and dump 20K more into it in upgrades... you STILL have a 29K truck! Period! (eye roll) Hence, I'm a little upside down in my 2017 Silverado still. It looks great though! (more eye roll) I have a bad ass pristine 2016 Z06 that SITS in the garage! I don't drive it! It's too precious and it's a pain to uncover and to move my truck over, then I have to be careful where I drive it... what's the weather like? Bla bla bla... I love the car, but I DO NOT DRIVE IT! I was thinking of selling the car and then paying down the truck and getting a raptor... but.....hold on! New plan. I have thought and thought about the Trail boss, and the GMC At4 and all that... but I ALWAYS go back to the Raptor. Always. I've never even driven one!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Here's my thoughts and I just realized this! Duh! I have equity in the car... I could take the Z06 in and trade that bad boy in on the Raptor. Get WHAT I WANT... have it, then sell the Silverado outright and be DONE! I'm pretty damn confident that I would drive that raptor EVERY DAY! It would NOT sit in the garage, it will NOT hide from rain or bad weather or the beach or WHATEVER! Thoughts?????????????? [/QUOTE]
