I personally can't think of a time I ever went out a bought myself one until now :D

I have bought myself some little things over the years but this time I went all out. I have never owned or bought a new vehicle for myself before. After some discusion with the girlfriend (been toghether for over 15 years and raised each others kids just never got married) we decided that I should get myself what I would like with in reason. Within reason ment no new Camaro and I already have a 67 :thumbsup:

This is what I bought for myself: Still kinda sick to my stomach with nerves and excitment.

2009 Silverado Extra Cab LT1 trim group with some other options. Paid just under 25K out the door with tax, license and fees. I got $6500 in rebates from GM!! It only had 8 miles on it!! No other pics except this one when it was at the dealer.

Wow really nice looking truck. Would look great towing my black '69 Camaro!

Nice truck - looks just like my daughter's :beers:

Happy birthday! Found my SS396 2 years ago today on my birthday.

Happy Birthday and nice truck Joe! :thumbsup: Now you have to stripe it out like the 67, find a trailer and you are all set.

You picked the best "first present" for yourself that I've seen in quite awhile. Congrats on the new truck......and it's the best color....black:yes::cool::thumbsup::thumbsup:.

It was a little early, B-day is Oct 16th. I never thought I would own a new vehicle. I have always been the type to get a used one and let someone else take the hit on value after they drive it off the lot.

The feels pretty good to finally own a new vehicle and thanks for kind words everyone!

Yeah, you don't have to act "happy" when it is something that you don't like.

Joe, thats better then getting a pink tie from your daughter.... :D
