Default hey guys.. which one should I do?

Ok my whole entire life.. literally my whole life I've always wanted an F-body (mainly a camaro). Now that I'm a big boy I ended up getting a truck cause well I like trucks now.

Anyway.. should I get my silverado to run like 12's? and keep it as the DD?


ORRRR.. should I build the truck to run 14's and the DD... and get a camaro z28 and/or trans am and have that bitch runnin like 11's.. and have it as the weekend warrior

i personally would make the truck run 12s as a DD, but a F-body just doesnt suit me or any car for that matter, unless it was maybe some 60-70s muscle w/ a BBC

but id say makin a f-body run 11s would be cheaper than makin your truck run 12s...

Keep the truck, 11 second f-bodies are a dime a dozen.

If you have the money, own both. I gotta throw it out there tho that you otta buy a C5 before an Fbod. The prices of 99-01 C5's are low. Noone really fits in the back seat of an Fbod anyway... so buy a Vette.

now that last one seems interesting.

It wouldn't be too hard at all to get a camaro into the 12's and keep it as DD status... and the truck gets horrible gas mileage anyway.. might as well finish it off and make it quicker then ****. Lightning/Hemi Killer

i think a truck in the 12s is a little more impressive that an f-body in the 11s!!i say you get the truck in the 12s.
