I've been snooping around the forum for quite sometime now picking up tidbits on 07+ Tahoes/ Denalis/ Escalades. Up until this past summer (Arizona summers suck btw...) I never thought of owning an SUV. Ya see, I was too wrapped up in the German car scene and able, off-road trucks. Unfortunately, due to work (becoming an adult and having less "play time"), I found it more and more difficult to get out to the track or rural canyons.
So... I decided to choose a more street friendly vehicle. I ended up picking up used new model Denali, a vehicle that was owned by a former Arizona Cardinals football player, oddly enough, and was well cared for. As you will see by the photographs, I have clearly taken the lazy man's route this time, and have purchased a vehicle with a handful of modifications (wheels, sound, sat tv, debadge, demolded, painted headlight housings, tinted brakelights, 26" Slides, McGaughys 2/3 lowering kit, etc). But, as you all know, one is never done modding...
I'm looking forward to getting involved with this web based community. I have been and still am an active member (under the same name) at TacomaWorld, M3Forum and Bimmerforums. It's an addiction, what more can I say?
Anyway, on to what you all what to see the most, the photographs;
Denali posing in the Arizona sun -
e46 M3 prepping for some track fun -
Adjustable suspension... 6 clicks from "lowest" -
BSP Tacoma 4x4 taking in the sights -
Out in Buckeye, Arizona (west valley of Phoenix... closest thing to BFE) -
Living happily together up until the Denali arrived -
If you want to check more photos of the truck, sold earlier this year, you can on my build thread at TacomaWorld. I don't think you have to be a member to view the photos, but I could be wrong; http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/2nd-gen-builds/51337-arizonad54s-spblack-build.html
I also have a jackload of photos from/ for the M3. I owned her ("Emmy") for 5 years. Lots of good memories and photos, happy to share.

What AZ Card owned your ride before you? I don't mind the AZ summers. I lived here all my life so I guess I am used to them
