Re: Is a grenade shifter Cool?
That is a cool truck minus the interior and the shifter. If you want a truck to take to the deer camp there are a lot of cheaper trucks out there. JMO. Good luck!

Re: Is a grenade shifter Cool?
The paintjob is cool (a little too much satin black but cool nontheless) but it's nothing special.
He's got that stupid Strut package on there. Waaaaaay overpriced and ugly (IMO), some ugly interior work and a stupid shifter.
The big brakes are a very cool upgrade along with the tires. The 1" lift (150 dollar keys he apparently priced out at 500 bucks) is useless. The interior is ghetto.
Find yourself a stock SUT or one already done and I think you'll be much happier and come out cheaper.
I bought my '06 SUT for 28K with 42K miles for 28K.
I assure you I don't have an add'l 10K in mine and even if I painted it satin black (which was my original intention) I'd still wouldn't be close to what they're asking for that truck.

Re: Is a grenade shifter Cool?
I REALLY like the satin black/matte black look, I know that wasn't a HUMMER special edition, what do you think it costs to get that sort of paint job done on your own?

Thanks for your input. Much appreciated. BTW, kind of a rhetorical question but thought it would be interesting to get Hummer pro's opinions. Just thought you might need a little help in understanding a simple question. Also, if you need someone to help you read the instructions on boiling water, let me know little fella.

I know here in Sylvania,Oh there's custom Corvette Shop called ACI (American Custom Inc.) http://www.acivette.com/
They do A+ Work!
I guy i know paid Almost $14,000 to have his H2 Painted Pearl White, they removed all doors and Panels! Turn out  So I'm guessing that to do it right it would be with in 1 or 2 g's of that, in satin ! |

Yeah. That is a sweet rig. Did you have the grill painted or was it painted by the dealer?
