Re: Off-Road Silverado

Actually have heard about this truck. Supposed to compete against the RAM powerwagon for off-roadability. Haven't heard anything about when or even if it is going into production.

Too much bling for me, but the specs were promising ... e-locker in the front too.

Sll the better to snap something. I wonder if it makes production if it would still have the front locker and how would GM warrant parts that break because of it's use.

They sure are covering the front axles that are being destroyed by H3'ers. In my (non-professional opinion), Hummer would have a hard time in court or in arbitration not covering front axle, since in one of their website commercials they show doing some of the nasties in Moab. They also advertise on their website it is an off-road vehicle, and show it climbing walls, logs, etc. So, from what I have seen and heard, they will cover almost anything, so long as it is not caused by physical damage. (Like slamming down on the axle and putting a hole in it.)

Re: Off-Road Silverado

Damn I really really really like that truck.

Even if it's not production ready, if someone could find the fenders, the rest of the truck would be easy to do.

Re: Off-Road Silverado

Thanks fstop. I guess GM really isn't going out on a limb since most of their trucks end up as mall queens anyway.:rolleyes::o

That is true, a shame, but true. But true of Jeeps, other than Wranglers too, as well as almost any other four wheel off-road type vehicle.

That is a pretty sweet ride, ming. I bet the chrome helps it slide through the mud, and those running boards probably work like pontoons! That would get me to the mall in style!
