When I was looking I found a manual 4x4 almost like that. Can’t remember if it was regular cab or not, probably not. Thought I’d hit the jackpot.
...turned out to be one of those guys who never takes their ads down. GAHHHH

I think you could only get the manual with the 4.8 and not the 5.3, but still, you should get this truck and join the 2wd/regular cab/short bed club.

That makes you lucky, like the guy looking for good deals on size 7 boots. For some reason they are always easy to find in the overstock bin.

Flomaster ? NP.

Well if you’re going to El Dorado you are going to need a Silverado to carry all the gold.

If I was in the market for a truck, I would definitely go for something like this. Don’t need 4WD, a long bed, or a back seat.

Nothing wrong with the 4.8.

You know what they say about people with small feet...
Shoe manufacturers love them, because the lower cost of materials correlates to higher profit per unit sold.

I was going to say...they like short trucks?

Whoa! V8 5-speed! That’s a rare truck! NP too!

Honestly, the 4.8, which I have in my truck, is a little gutless. Plenty durable and modifiable though, and this truck is a lot lighter than my crew cab.

I was about to say, in our regular cab trucks, it’s pretty quick.

If you’re one of two then I’m the second. I’d love a truck like this, sadly though I can’t really come up with a good reason to buy one other than fun, and right now a fun truck is too low on the priority list.

The fuel mileage biased 3.20:1 rear gear mine has, does not help the cause for speed. True story, I “drag raced” my friend up to the speed limit in her Honda Element ... she dusted me.

Yeah, I’m real sad I probably can’t swing buying it. Would be a fabulous daily.

I prefer Mangnaflo myself.

Nope. Undesirability = very few ever made. I’ve never seen a V8 manual of this body style come along.
![]() 02/23/2018 at 13:14 |

Yeah, I thought so. 4.8 is a fine engine though.

Nope. Iz muscle truk.

That is unfortunate, it would be an excellent DD.

I mean, my FiST would have dusted it stock, but for a work truck it isn’t miserable. The 4.3 is miserable.
![]() 02/23/2018 at 14:05 |

TIL they made ANY manuals in this body style.
![]() 02/23/2018 at 14:11 |

I would expect a FiST to dust a stock pickup truck, but this was a stock automatic Element.
Agreed on the 4.3 though. Can’t kill them, but they are miserable in a full size.

It’s my favorite body style. I’m sad they only made them for 3 years. I kinda hate the dumb angry eye version that came after it.
![]() 02/23/2018 at 14:41 |

Agreed. I had an ‘01 Suburban (okay, Yukon XL) in that body style, also black. Loved it for what it was.

Yes! They replaced one of the best looking trucks they ever made, certainly the best looking modern trucks, with the hands down ugliest truck they ever made. Worst refresh EVAR!

I want one of these too. I specifically like the look of the regular cab short bed, and I like manual trucks. I don’t really have a use for it, but given infinite garage space, I would get one of these.
