mad photoshop skills

 

That Caddy chop is TIGHT!

 

No it won't actually. They had that problem with that when they used it in the caddy in the 90's. Now the cylinders actually alternate to even out and keep all cylinders the same temp and with the same wear when in 4 cyl mode.
I believe they got it right this time.
There hasn't been any problems with the new 05' SS Impala's DOD 5.3L engine as of yet. It boasts 303 hp and gets 28 mpg hwy. The 05' Trail Blazer has been using the 5.3L DOD engine as well with no issues.
At least GM has got the engines down pat!
When they get that 6 speed auto working up to par in conjunction with the new DOD engines, then GM will have the competition scrambling to catch up.

I saw a really good photoshopped one, I think it was in truckworld.tenmagazines.con like 2 months ago.. like I said not sure what magazine? But I liked it!

 

I just dont like the DOD stuff. Sure the SS Impala gets 28mpg, my 00' Z28 M6 with TR224 and alot of bolt ons got 34mpg if I kept it at 75mph. Sure the 07 Burban gets 20mpg, with a couple bolt-ons and tune I get 24mpg in my XL 4x4. Also those "gas saving" Tahoes that get "21mpg" are running 3.42 gears. An 06' Tahoe with 3.42's got "20" mpg, so where is the huge gain from 4 cylinders? I think its alot of gimic to up sales. One of those things to take advantage of peoples fear IMO.

 

I bet the Chevy trucks will look awsome. I cant wait to see the styleing on the SS and se the LS2 in it. I WILL have to buy one of those.

 

i hope they do do something sweet with the SS, i wouldnt mind having one of the new ones but i just cant imagine pouring all that money into a new vehicle plus all the mods i would want...i wouldnt mind keeping my 2k for a long time and just replace the engine and trans again and ahain

i think this is gonna be the new silverado

 

anyone have links or anything to sites about the new ss or any info, this is the first i have heard of it. thanks justin

 

no, there isnt even any official info about the regular silverados. I think they debut september 7th or sometime around then. Thats when we'll know more, maybe they'll have the silverado SS then but I doubt it. I'd expect to see a new SSS at the NAIAS
