My 2003 2WD SB SLT. I've never seen a SB 2WD on our roads since...ever, not even in Rumblebee form as they're all 4x4's up here for some reason.

I custom ordered her on speculation that the "new" 5.7 was soon going to be available in place of the 5.9 that preceeded the January '03 production run where quiktruk was born. One of the first few off the line...

With the Hotchkis lowering/stiffening it could easily stay with buddies running mountain twisties in A4 quattros and 3 series bimmers (not M of course).

Drivetrain was stock except for K&N CAI and a Dynomax glass pack and it ran consistant 14.60's with a full tank of gas (not bad for a 4800 lb. brick).

It replaced my flame red 2000 Dakota CC R/T (miss that one too!).

Nice truck man. Sadly, we may not see many more like that in a pushrod V8 form anyways. May go the way of some squealing and buzzing that is the modern day hybrid.

I actually saw a huge white SUV today...I know it was a GM..but not a Caddy. In gigantic letters on the side by the driver's door, it said "HYBRID". I was like, wtf? People thought that was cool? Geez..and the lady driving it looked like she had some money.
