[Sevenevez]

You really know how to take great pics! Beautiful!

thanks Tony. it's a basic DSLR. it's a Canon T3i that i have owned for a long time. with that and a Tri-Pod, there's not much you can't do.

Gotta love receiving boxes at the front door
Special thanks to Gs03Escalade for the smokin' deal on an Esky Roof Rack.
I'll throw this on as soon as it cools down around here. Don't even have to paint it! Pewter Metallic

No AC is a major buzz kill . My dad's family all lives in the Phoenix/Glendale area so I know that desert all too well...
Nice score on the roof racks!cool that they are already your paint color!that would have saved me alot when I did my esky racks haha. You will love them! I think the nbs Denali should have had the esky racks factory installed. It's such a classy looking truck with the esky racks!gives it a nice sharp, classy look! Can't wait to see them installed!

yeah, at least it happened locally on my street instead of when i was in Phoenix a few days ago.
Not sure what it is yet, hopefully an easy cure instead of an expensive one.

and yeah, i agree they shoulda put those style roof rails on the denali's.

threw two of them on one side just to check the fitment. my buddy snapped a pic on his smartphone. then we took them off.
yeah, i know haha Holy Fender Gap!
I know i gotta remedy the gravity situation along with other things. I will probably try to tackle a lot of this stuff at one crack. still gotta keep saving dollars for now and banging out some side jobs on the weekends.
It'll probably be a good month or so until she gets lowered, wheels/tires on, alignment, oil pan, hydroboost and now, the AC. Doing what i can, she's slowly transforming
