    Not sure the point of this tread...

    I can post a pic of my girls Del Sol parked next to my C6 Z06. Both will get me to work but they clearly are not equal...

    I'd like to find a decent Scout for that price! I'd take the Scout any day.

    Can't i just have them both? my wifes 2008 suburban only cost's $462 a month and it's a z71 lt3 with everything you could want. Sure is comfy to drive and being 6'4" tall, i have yet to find anything to complain about it... except that it's not a Scout.

    All of my vehicles combined cost under $15,000 and I would take any of them over a C6 Z06 or the GMC.

    In my opinion the $39500 difference is a whole lot of worry.

    Thats your choice. I own out right over $25K worth of cars big deal. I could choose to drive a $1500 Honda to work but I choose a $13000 Tundra. I could have built a budget Fox body Mustang but I bought a 07 Z06. Say what you want but there is a reason things cost more money. My Tundra is smoother larger and cleaner then a $1500 Honda.

    And trying to compare a Fox body mustang with a C6 Z06 is laughable at best. Sorry man just hate seeing people say "I spent less then you so mine is better"

    Heres a deal I wont make fun of you own a truck thats older then me and you try not to get upset that people can spend $45K on a car with out blinking an eye.

    Deal?

    I will leave you with a nice little quote I came up with for people who play this car....

    What vehicle would serve a family of 5-6 better in both the Mountains in Winter and the Deserts in Summer and 10,000s of miles of road trips?

    DELETED - I need to follow my own advice, I guess. Here's a toned-down version:

    Step 1 - Inhale.
    Step 2 - Exhale.
    Step 3 - Repeat.

    GTA - I apologize for insulting your ability to purchase expensive cars. I would never dream of doing so if I had realized that you cared this much. I am not at all insecure about my financial situation, and I love that my truck is older than me. I consider it a mark of pride that I can make an old vehicle better than anything available in dealers, but to each their own. I am very glad that you were able to purchase a shiny new(er) truck that does everything you want. Enjoy it!
