this body style set a high standard in my opinion....i'm sure once we see one rolling it might be diff. but you can't argue that the new tahoe and avalanche don't look F'in sweet. can't help i'd like to have a truck that looks as good

Stewart's mind is pretty much welded shut. He'll change his mind I'm sure.
It's different, but it's not all that bad.
A few mods, and it will look really good.
I can see why some of us would hesitate to toss our trucks for a new style one though. Our mods will no longer work on the gen trucks. Therefore, we would be throwing thousands of dollars in mods away to trade up.
I was thinking about modding a new 07' instead of my current truck until I was told the new trucks will not accept the new Radix I have.
Oh, well. Guess I might just buy an extra truck someday then.

This is the first attempt at a new tahoe front clip on a 99-06 silvy. I am not saying it was a good job, just a few pics
