What model year is it? Looks good none the less.

She is indeed and also has the 6.0 LS2. I unabashedly love my SSR and have even taken it to home depot and welding supply to haul things home.

I don't judge, but I know this isn't a safe place for cars like the SSR. Good on you, must be an eye opener to drive after the cruiser...

certainly goes like a bat out of hell haha. But still only good in the straights. Love the convertible aspect and it was a steal at the dealership during the recession. Most fun per $ i've ever had. Also gets a surprising amount of attention on the road.

I saw one of these at lake powell putting a boat into the water. I was like "HOLY BALLS!" Everyone didn't think much of it.

The suspension is a bit soft out back. Im sure it could easily haul a 3000 lbs boat with airbags in the coils.

Oh man that is a mighty pretty sight, remind me what type they are. Is this pictured sans the new springs?

Thinking of going the TJM 2 inch kit. I hear the ride is dreamy if you arne't planning on much extra weight.

she'll look good lifted a bit. they should fill out the wheel wells nicely.

they were only specd for 2500 but im sure that its suspension limited. its on the trail blazer frame which had a much higher tow rating.

Im thinking about 37" BFG mud terrains for my next tire. I have 35" all terrain mickey thompsons on mine now and they are shit off road. Have chunked to a million pieces. Only benefit is people see my torn up tires and assume I've wheeled her way harder and more often that I truthfully have.
