Daily truck pics

[Old77]

Looks like mine, except mine is a '94 with only 63K miles. My underside looks better than the two pics of that one and mine has the Z71 package. I wouldn't take $30K for mine as it sits right now. It'd have to be a much better offer. She's my baby and she's not going anywhere, anytime soon.

Completely understand. I've got a couple of trucks that I never plan on selling and if I did the price would be way north of what most would consider them "worth". Look at the truck I commented on, I'm not even sure I believe the advertised mileage (45,***). The mats are way over armor-all'd and look black to me which don't match the burgundy. The taillights are oxidized and tailgate band letters are all but faded. With that kind of mileage (and appears to be garaged if we're to trust the condition of the paint) I'd expect those things to be in much better shape with that low of miles. And I wouldn't expect the underside to have the surface rust it does. If I'm considering paying $30k for that truck it'd definitely need to be closer to perfect than what is advertised. I love the GMT400 platform but that specific truck seems overpriced (at the very least) to me

Saw this sharp Escalade at the clinic, going to pick my brother up from his appointment. I noticed cropping the pictures that it's an E55 tailgate model. Glad to see newer factory wheels on it too instead of the donk style most people run in H Town.

That Escalade looks clean but looks a little low in the back? And wheels are ok but not to fitting with the body lines and they tried to make the rear look like a 800 Escalade by putting the emblem in the center of tailgate but to me looks no good. But a nice one to see

I didn't even notice the band on the back and the aging on it. And the mats look like they've been dyed black for sure. I don't doubt the mileage. Good detailers are masters at paint correction. Of course, the seller states they "believe" it to the be original paint (which leaves a lot to interpretation). I KNOW mine is the original paint. The underside looks like pretty normal surface rust for the age too. The only reason my underside looks better is because I've put in the work to restore the undercarriage of my truck. I had plenty of surface rust on the underside of mine as well when I purchased it. I agree, for that much money I'd expect a 90% resto job at least.

PS: I just noticed the 60/40 front bench seat, which in my opinion detracts from the value over front buckets with console.

I’ve seen those mirrors before. They are interesting.

They look like 800 mirrors from the front. If the glass has the inner corner cutout, that's a good indicator that's what they are.
Of course for the large Brazilian market, and the Latin American market in general, GM could've come up with a unique piece that was only available there.....

Saw these two working boys this evening in central Houston. I hadn't noticed the sign at the bank before, but I thought it was a great shot since a CCLB is pretty much NOT what is "supposed" to park there!
