Hello everybody. I am new here on this site and it is my first time subscribing to a discussion forum. So far I gotten help when needed. Anyway... Just to introduce what I ride. I have a 2000 Ext. cab Silverado with a 5.3L V8. I call it "sharky" because it has blue with pewter on the bottom like a great white shark (kinna). It is an automatic with 2WD and with leather interior. I have owned it for almost three years (baught it used). It has worked great...Chevy as definitely won my 100% approval for Silverados. Being a college student, I have limited money to invest on it. However, I have added some extras little by little. My latest addition (less than a week ago) was a set of 20" wheels with 305/50 tires. I put a DVD player where the small cassette player went. So now I have the original CD player and DVD player. I connected a playstation 1 to the DVD player and put a drop down TV. I have a small amp and some cheap woofers that make good music for my purpose. I also put some 40 series Flowmasters (one outlet) and it sounds great went taking off but not annoying when cruising. I also put a K&N filter in it. I take good care of it by changing the fluids on schedule and add some Restore fluid to wake up some extra ponies. My plan now is to fix a small rip that one seat has. Then buy some chrome step bars and fog lights (I burned my own with 100 watt bulbs). I also want to lift it 2" from the front or maybe around. What do ya'll think? Thank for reading about my truck. Any question or suggestion? I will be happy to answer... Art |

Hello, I own a 2001 Chevy Silverado c/k3500 Crew Cab, LongBed, Dual Rear Wheels, 8.1L 496 ci, 4x4 with Allison Transmission. Just looking for other trucks like mine. I am having a hard time finding other trucks like mine and am wondering about production numbers/builds of these fine trucks. Small modifications have been made on my truck. My truck page is located here. Chat with you all later! I'm gonna look around some more.

Replying to: simplyrad (Aug 09, 2005 8:45 am) Do you have any problems parking that boat? Just curious.... You are right as I rarely if ever seen that configuration with the gas motor. Most all of them have the duramax.

Replying to: obyone (Aug 09, 2005 10:08 am) Yeah, sometimes I have problems parking. Living in Southern California, I have sort of become anti-compact parking. Businesses are trying to squeeze many compact cars into small lots and forget about full-size vehicles. The turning radius is not that great being extra long so, most of the time I park out and away. I somewhat prefer this so my beauty does not get banged up by ignorant folk. Nonetheless, still looking for other trucks like mine and I am wondering how many of them were built. Actually, I have only seen one other truck having the same year and configuration. Link to other truck like mine. How rare is my truck? |

I've seen two. One black and one white that I can remember. I've always like duallies and often pciture leaving a fender behind at the drive thru at McD's.... I haven't seen any sites that breakdown the light truck sales into the different catagories. You might check here for a few more owners of your type of truck..... |

My name is David. I live in Jefferson City, MO and own a 02' Silverado 1500 4x4 LT ext. cab Z71 short bed. It is light pewter metallic w/graphite leather interior. My truck has the 5.3 w/auto and about 125,000 miles. It runs and drives super smooth even with the high miles. It's mostly stock with a few accessories like bugshield, ventvisors, fiberglass running boards, Rhino liner, Flowmaster dual exhaust, and a K&N air filter. I do have some of the common silverado problems, but all in all, this truck is really a nice vehicle.
