Well the s 10 is gone... I bought a new TV... I found and 06 silverado 1500 long bed ext cab... Its lm7 300 hp 5.3 and 3:42 rear. 4 speed trans... This is new to me... G 80 locker rear... Im so ...
5.3s like to rev, just remember that especially with 3.42 rear end if you upgrade trailers. I pulled our 8k gvw trailer with my 5.3 and 3.73 gears fine. Really steep long hills I downshifted to 2nd but that wasn't too often.
Bought a 2500 Yukon XL 6.0 for yanking the camper now and don't regret it one bit.
