It is of great historical and cultural significance! I have been the steward of the Passmore blocker for the last three years. @MTH graciously let me be the caregiver after I lost my colon. The Passmore helped me heal. Whilst it welched on the promise to grow my colon back, the Passmore has more than made up for that iniquity. The new Passmore review shall be initiated. It will be “Passmore 2.0: a new beginning”. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 So after a very long wait I finally got my truck. 2021 GMC Canyon Elevation. Took a while to find one locally in the color and trim I want without too many extras. Didn't wanna have too many options to boost the price, I try to keep all the creature comforts to my wife's vehicle. A lot of the local trucks had more than I wanted to pay for. This one ended up having one package I didn't want but I sucked it up. It was pretty basic aside from that. HUGE thanks to @Mike24!!! You're a fucking saint dude. I'll post pictures in a few. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadAngle41 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 New (to me) gear hauler. Actually has an enormous boot. The 40/20/40 split makes it great as the kids car seats can stay in place and I can knock down the ski pass for sticks... then leg pads fit in perfectly... and bag. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaveByRichter35 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Beautiful! That back seat split is perfect. My last few were all 60/40 so I could never fold anything down with the car seats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a fellow white truck enthusiast I'll plus one this. White looks good, looks fairly clean even when its fairly dirty, can be one of the cheaper paints for repairs if need be... and for me personally was the color of choice of my gramps so I'm keeping the tradition alive. We starting a white truck subgroup? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey hotshot, what's wrong with Detroit cars?" But if your best friend is killed by karate using ex-con who used "to (make love) to guys like you in prison". You can drive your MB at full speed at his buddies, through a gate, while being shot at without concern... So, wise purchase. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weather it’s getting shelled on the ice or at home the kids shooting verbal attacks… Son - “Dad you don’t have any friends.” Daughter - “If Dad wants to pretend to have friends we should let him. He’s just pretending.” Me - “Thanks guys.” The Mercedes is my brief respite from it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichMan Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I'm not there yet budget wise but I will get me my truck sometime soon, most likely used.

I've an '08 now that just rolled 100,000 miles, I love it. I keep window shopping newer ones but can't justify the cost with minimal benefits. If they ever did a hybrid I'd be all over it, the current MPG is terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
