So in looking at replacement trucks for my '98 rcsb ... I do get a little excited about the SS Silverado's
Specifically 6.0 liters, and AWD (winter "capable" needed here in UT) Has anyone owned one or have any experiences ? I heard they don't get to good of mileage, but that's not too huge of a concern, as I don't put too many miles on my truck. Any input appreciated (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:http://x-img.autorevo.com/2005-chevrolet-silverado-ss-indio-ca-6090201/1619797-1-bigger.jpg) ~DaVe |

I take it this was in a state that doesn't have the 72-hour law where they, by law, have to take the vehicle back within that time frame. What sucks is that driving around with "XXXX dealer sold me this POS and wouldn't take it back after only an hour" signs all over it since it won't have any impact that far away.

As far as I could tell I had no legal action to return it, the 72 hour lemon law was on new vehicles only (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (I only had help from a Utah, lawyer, I never contacted a SD lawyer) I called the local tow company to have it taken to a shop today (I use the same tow company most times as the owner lives up the road from my mom) .. The tow truck (flatbed) had the transmission out of it ! .. I straight laughed on the phone (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) my luck is contagious ? lol ~DaVe This post has been edited by BumpaD_Z28: Mar 22 2017, 05:15 AM |
