The guys at Chevy promised me I would not be able to break it....

That is, until I put a blower on it....

It should also be noted that 22" wheels on a 4x4 are just plain dumb.

We all know that 99% of the buyers of those rigs will never see more offroad action than a gravel parking lot.

Yeah, that's why it's getting a four inch lift, downsizing to a 20" rim with a 33.5" tire, programmer, better pads and an intake that doesn't sound like someone is strangling a cow.

I hope when I come back it is reincarnated as you. I'm digging the same stuff as you almost all the time - the only difference is you seem to have the cash flow that I sorely lack.

These things are solely dependent on the jobs to support them....

The fact that I have spent the last twenty three years developing business that requires road use, versus flying.... Is secondary.

I hate flying in planes.

But thank you, I was hoping to come back as a tiger ...

I am thinking about selling the M5.

But I am still thinking. In the alternative, I may just set it up for long term storage and put it on the market when everyone is really fed up with AWD M5s...

First round of work completed; it looks so silly lifted four inches with 22s on it...





And of course, the changing of the Guard... Looks soooooo much better with a 20" wheel on it...




This has to be one of the best mile per dollar vehicles I have ever owned, hopefully, the new one will perform in the same manner.

Just waiting on the intake and programmer...

Do you normally tow a vehicle when you take that on the road?

Could pretty much tow the planet with that much torque...
