Replying to: sebring95 (Jun 26, 2006 6:26 am) Contrary to the recommendations (mostly from 4x4 Owners) I would NEVER by a 4x4 just because it has higher resale if I didn't have a specific need for it. And personally I never have, even though there may have been a few times while living in Upstate NY it may have been helpful.

Does anybody know when the 2007 Silverado Classic is coming out? I was at my local dealership trying to make a decision on 06 EXT-Cab Z71 and I asked my salesman for a "book" on the Silverado. She said she couldn't find an 06 book and said I could look at the brochure for the 07 Silverado Classic.   So my main point is that if they already have the 07 books, are they close to getting the 07 Silverado Classics on the dealerships?

Replying to: erik_w (Jun 26, 2006 10:49 am) The 2007 Classics are already on the lots around here (Mass). They should be arriving at a dealer near you soon.

Replying to: mojo63 (Jun 25, 2006 4:19 am) Let me assume you have a new body style truck (since you say you changed your cabin filters). On a 2000 the blower resistor is located on the HVAC assembly near the blower motor. Remove the cover on the bottom of the HVAC assembly by loosening the three 7 mm hex head screws. Once the cover is removed, if you were sitting in the passenger seat, your right foot would point to the blower resistor. The wiring harness uses a connector that has seven wires in an in-line configuration. The wire colors are tan, yellow, purple, light blue, black, orange and orange. When mounted in the HVAC assembly, the actual resistors are in the blower's air flow, to help dissipate heat. Hope this helps.

Replying to: joe29001 (Jun 26, 2006 11:10 am) If they are calling it a "Classic" is that NOT the new body style that's coming? Replies to this message: joe29001 (Jun 28, 2006 4:44 am) erik_w (Jun 28, 2006 2:29 pm) kcram (Jun 28, 2006 2:48 pm) txyank1 (Jun 29, 2006 6:58 am)

Replying to: txyank1 (Jun 28, 2006 4:11 am) No, it's the old body style, a carryover from 2006. Replies to this message: erik_w (Jun 28, 2006 2:29 pm) kcram (Jun 28, 2006 2:48 pm) txyank1 (Jun 29, 2006 6:58 am)

Replying to: joe29001 (Jun 28, 2006 4:44 am) It's definitely the same as the 2006. I have a brochure and some of the pages are exactly the same as they are in the 2006 brochure, including the front page.   I'm guessing Chevy has a bunch of parts left and aren't ready with the "new" 2007 model so they are just selling 2006 trucks and calling them 2007. I don't mean anything wrong by that statement. And, I'm not saying Chevy is wrong. I'm just saying the 07 Classic is exactly the same as the 06.   Erik Replies to this message: kcram (Jun 28, 2006 2:48 pm)

Replying to: erik_w (Jun 28, 2006 2:29 pm) This is not a new practice by any means. GM did the same thing nearly 20 years ago with the new Chevy/GMC (C/k) being sold alongside the old body (renamed R/V series). Ford has domne this with the last two F-150 designs (F-150 Heritage).   kcram - Pickups Host

Replying to: joe29001 (Jun 28, 2006 4:44 am) Gotcha, Thanks. Didn't think the new ones were here yet.
