I LOVE the new Kinetic Blue. Super bright and looks awesome in pretty much any light.

My truck is the old Laser blue, that looks dark in the dark, and blue with purple overtones in the sun. It's a very unique color.

Sounds like you've got a good :dill: cooking. If you were really serious, it might be worth checking around other :dillerman: that have more Z71's in stock (there should be quite a few) and see if you can get a better :dill: elsewhere using the numbers you already got as leverage.
:dat:

Shoot the number out to another dealer and see what they say.

"You've got a truck I want, I've got a price in mind, can you make this happen?"

You've gotten the hard part out of the way: The test drive and the trade appraisal.

Worst another dealer could say is no, and you've validated the deal you've gotten is good.
Oh :word:

I :wub: the bloo but weirdly enough love the grey-green just as much. I guess I always thought army jeeps are cool AF so and secretly wish I had one.

Nice, I was looking for a blue ZR2 but everything out here that was left was white, black or the one silver one.. so I got Silver.
The blue is so nice in person. I'm trying my best to stay away from grey/black/white/silver.
My next vehicle will be a silver or gray I think. Or orange.

That's a nice blue. In4 :popcorn:

Orange is my favorite color, and I've only managed one orange vehicle...my JK. I really want another.

It's "too expensive" but it's also brand new.

That's the thing...for "only" $10k more, I could get a brand new C7.

But at this point in time, Mid $30k is a palatable cash deal, but High $40k isn't so much.

Problem is, after my road experience yesterday, I've been thinking about getting out of cars entirely.

Can't remember where I posted...I was trying to avoid traffic yesterday and went down a road I know, but didn't realize how poorly it fared the winter for a :poorvette: . It was a painful experience physically, and at the end of it all, my driver's side window is rattling pretty bad...like something is loose or broken in there. Probably just lose, but that's somewhat beside the point...Driving a sports car on the crater of the moon just isn't pleasurable. It's best to stick to roads that I know are decent, but that means a lot of traffic during the week. Now I'm down to only being interested in driving the car on the weekend, which is :butwhy: Seriously debating just getting out of it entirely.
