    Different car for the wifey...

    The CTS has been fun but not enough fun for the payment, so we're going to throw it on eBay and AutoTrader.

    This is the newest addition to the family. Actually, even being a Chr...Chry...Chrys...CHRYSLER! (man that was tough to say) product, it's a pretty cool little car and we got it at a pretty great price. It actually has room for some luggage for a road trip, has a peppy 3.2l V6, power everything, heated leather seats, and I can actually stretch my legs straight out. Plus it'll be a fun car for Jenn to bring to the track and mess around with (have already looked into headers, tune, etc. )...

    Anyway, pics below...

    I actually like those little boogers. And to the car's defense, they are more mercedes than they are Chrysler. I know everything under the hood says mercedes benz all over it. they are even assembled on the inside like a mercedes would be (screws everywhere and the panels are a pain in the arse to get off).
    2005 black Yukon XL SLT - traded in for me wife's new Fusion (GM sucks these days)
    2002 black Yukon SLT (the skinny sister)
    1969 green Pontiac GTO (Layla, AKA the black sheep)

    INSTALLS AND MORE.. http://www.ls1truck.com/forums/my-ga...-low-life.html
    Sticky/broken gauges? I can help. PM me for details.

    Yeah I like it too. It's very solid, seems to be well made, and yep - is basically a Benz platform.

    Be forwarned. It takes 9 quarts of oil to fill that little booger. My girls sister has one. The dealership said 20 bucks for an oil change. She walked out with almost a 200 dollar bill. 40 dollar filter and 9 quarts of synthetic.......only 20 bucks for labot though...lol
