It's a pretty good looking truck but it still a chevy. that aint good! lol jk I don't like the way those trucks handle tho....or sound...or the cheapness of the interior/components...and the fact im 6'7" and their very tight...but you can make them look kinda decent on the outside I suppose. It does look like its in real good shape tho....i might drive it if the windows are dark enough and it looks like they might be? lol
jk wiht ya man...
