    LB7 Owners

    Since getting rid of my LLY I, in some capacity have missed having a Duramax. For daily driver LB7 guys would you do it again? Pros/cons over newer MYs?

    Southern Texas

    Looks like I will be working around Pleasanton area. Any idea on where to live? Wife is a schoolteacher and have a 7 month old son. I know San Antonio is close and Austin isn't much further but would Katy or somewhere outside Houston be worth the drive?

    94 z28

    Hey guys, Looking to pick this Z28 up and wondered if it's worth what the guy is asking. Figured someone around here has to be a Camaro guru. The car looks clean, real low miles and has an LT4 hot cam swap. 1994 Z28 Blue book says it's worth that but wanted a real opinion. Thanks!

    Tahoe vs Suburban

    Anyone on here have any experience with the newer Tahoe's or Suburbans say 2004+ 4wds? I'm leaning more towards the GMT900 bodys in the 2007+ but am open to opinions.

    I know this maybe a bit out of left field but I've always been curious what kind of tuning software do Ford "custom" tuners use? I would ASSume that it's similar to EFILive or HPTuners but was just curious as I'm sure none of the "major" Ford tuners would tell me if I asked
