OK here it is. 2004 GMC Sierra 4.8 V-8 2wd. Seems to run and drive great. Rollin on some Factory 20" wheels. Interesting though it has no cruise control  :stupid All ready working on adding that. First tank of gas averaged about 16-17 mpg almost twice that of the Suburban.  :good

Its kind of a fancy work truck, It has the vinyl mat, but all the bells and whistles except cruise which is weird to me. Its a 4dr ext cab. Tan cloth interior. Doen't have the fold down jump seat, thinking about finding a used on or may just slap on a console of some kind.  It has towing package. Line X bed liner. The 4.8 is pretty ballsy should be no problem towing. I think its rated at 255HP which is 65 more than my 454 in the Suburban.  :good

Need to put a good hitch on it, add cruise, dress up the front end with some sort of chrome grille, tint the windows darker, maybe slip on a Magnaflow or Gibson exhaust, upgrade the shocks, drop the ass a couple inches, might slap some lamb chop tool boxes in the front of the bed. Need some more storage for work stuff and some tools.   :break

Its got a dent on the right rear quarter I think Dent Buster should be able to rubout.

I'm with Glen, I wouldn't level it if your going to haul or tow.  Personally I like the stance it has now.   :good

Or just lower the front and back equal amounts, that will keep the stance and look way better!.. :good

I'm ok with the stance, maybe like Art said drop the front 1 and the back 2. Still trying to figure out if I like the ride and handling with the 20's. Thats alot of unsprung weight bouncing around out there and it gives it a funky feel.
