    My new-ish truck

    Okay, so I have my 5.3l powered 240sx as most of you probably already know, but the car is from Cali. and there's no rust what-so-ever and I'm not about to attempt to drive this thing through a ****ty salty Vermont winter. So I had a 2000 VW passat that I thought would make a good winter beater, but I realized I hate this stupid thing, so I made a deal haha.

    Basically I'm taking over the lease payments on my father's 2007 GMC Sierra Z71 ECSB because he never drives it, to put it in perspective, he's had it a year and only put 11k miles on it!

    Anyway, I cleaned it up today (first time in months that it's been cleaned) and took some pics after putting my school parking pass and my other "signature" decals on.

    I've been thinking about some mod's, but since it's a lease truck I don't know. GMPP are kind of pricey, but they would let me keep that warranty....











    There's no replacement for displacement.

    Thanks for the comments. It's nothing special compared to the majority of the trucks on here, but it's not bad for stock I guess haha.

    Umm...leased?

    You sound like a younger fella, your not doing yourself any favors by leasing a vehicle. You should reconsider buying a vehicle that fits your means and will allow you to modify it, all the while having something of value to YOU in five years.

    Trust me.

    I myself am not leasing it haha. It's still my dad's lease, all in his name and everything, I'm just paying him what he pay's monthly while I'm using it. Come springtime or if I get another used vehicle (I buy and sell used vehicles and sometimes get something I like so I'll hold on to it for a little while) he will take back over on the payments.

    I know enough not to lease a vehicle haha, I've had a few friends get screwed doing it so I usually stick to used stuff, but I really wanted a truck for the winter and we made a deal so it's all good.

    Thanks for the comments guys!

    Your leasing a truck third party, with family involved....your brave....please dont modify this truck.

    Just between you and I, Id get away from this deal sooner than later.

    Theres a reason why a complete stranger would take the time to try and redirect you.

    Good luck
