Another new owner here...

Well, I finally found one worth spending my money on. The interior is 10/10. Ext is 7/10 but it's silver so it hides it well. Hood has a little ding where it looks like they had a truck or something back up a bit far. Who cares, I got a great deal. I love this thing and Im ready to drive it for years to come.

2009 with 54k miles. Auto with RPD. It's completely stock which is just how I wanted it

My only things on the to do list:
1. clean up the paint some where the previous owner let a bird turd marinate too long
2. De oxidize the head/taillights
3. Upgrade charge pipes
4. HP tune
5.Tint

Here are a few pics...

I got just under 30mpgs doing 60-80mph on the 130 mile drive home from the dealer. That's awesome considering my not so great mileage with my previous GM V8's

Thanks guys! I've done a lot of searching and reading up on these guys. I'm definitely going to miss my heads/cam V8 morning starts and the horsepower. But I'm already enjoying this gas mileage and the room. Plus once I get the boost turned up I don't think I'll miss the LS motors very much
