shadams/MRSshadams new 07 Sierra with lift pics

Seems like everyone is getting new vehicles around here, so why not.

Traded in our old, old 2006 Sierra that was worn out with over 9000 miles on it.

2007 GMC Sierra Crew Cab 5.3L 2WD


Line-X Over-rail with Line-Xtra Ultraviolet Kevlar protection



Custom Two-tone premium leather interior with heated front seats









Awesome truck, only had it 1 night and it is already night and day better then the "old" one.









MRSshadams is a very happy woman right about now.

Congrats on the awesome truck! That is what I want to get but in black. Did you put those rims on or did the dealer? They looks good

Re: MRSshadams new truck!

Nice.... I still don't understand why you let your wife drive these trucks. U couldn't pull me out of the driver seat.

BTW, are those the rims and tires off your old Sierra?

Re: So I jumped on the new vehicle bandwagon

Very nice truck. Are those rear seats comfortable? They look like they are. I hope they're not the torture chambers that rear GM truck seats have always been. I'm trying to talk my dad into a new Silverado or GMC so I need all the positives I can get.

Re: So I jumped on the new vehicle bandwagon

That truck looks awesome in that color. Were the wheels and interior dealer add-ons?

Re: So I jumped on the new vehicle bandwagon

Thanks guys. Yes, the seats are super comfy, that was one of the reasons I didnt buy a truck with factory leather. The SLT I traded had nice but hard seats. The leather I had installed on this one is from Catskinz and is way nicer and a lot more comfortable.

The wheels are the same ones I had on my 06, just swapped them over after a little modding.





Since the 07's dont have torsion bars, I have a 2.5" leveling package on the way.

Re: So I jumped on the new vehicle bandwagon

Cool looking truck. The GMC's looks a lot better in my opinion then the Chevy's.

So is this really YOUR truck or MRSshadams's?
