How bout a cut and paste so we don't have to join that site to see the info.

I think GM needs to step up the 1/2 ton market!! Dodge seems to be doing good with their 345 hp Hemi in their 1/2 tons. I think GM would do just as good if not better if they done 6.0L 1/2 ton, at possibly a good price!

The original thread is two pages long but here is the pertinant info from the starting post.

Hi all, it's been a while since I been in here and posted so I just wanted to say hello and see how things are going. I walk by all the brand new SS's built and admire them each and every time I go to work. Yesterday the plant built two pilot trucks reffered to as "Texas Trucks". I havn't a clue why they named them that. Where is Tahoe? I thought he would have mentioned them. Anyways about these trucks.

Gm will soon offer a limited number of a 2004 C-Model 2WD trucks built with a K-Model torsion bar suspension. The coil spring suspension that is normally used on the 2-wheel drive vehicles has been replaced by a torsion bar suspension thus giving way to a unique frame that is similar to the K-model 4-wheel drive. It has a High Performance Package offering the same 345 hp 6.0 litre engine as the Silverado SS, but in a 2-wheel drive form.

Highlites:

20” Chrome 5-spoke wheels (not the same as on the Silverado SS)
20” Tires (P275/55R20)
LQ9 Vortec “High Ouput 345 hp V8
M32 4-speed HD Automatic Transmission
Unique “Vortec High Output” Badging
C-Model 2WD built with a K-Model Torsion Bar Suspension


Also, there will be another limited edition comming soon with a new appearance package entitled the “Spring Special” as well. This will be a 2-wheel drive, extended cab with 20- inch wheels and tires. Unlike the Texas Truck, the powertrain will be the existing engine (LM7) and transmission (M30). All Spring Special trucks will be painted Indigo Blue Metallic (39U) - a colour that had been previously cancelled.

Those are not the Reg. Cabs. Those are the Sierra and Silverado Performance Editions and they're Ext. Cab 2wd. They are only for sale in Texas, Oklahoma and Louisianna.

Scroll down the forum for more info on the trucks.

a regular cab m6 does sound tempting
