Hey guys and girls(?)...
My name is Dave or Big D (6'8" 295lbs)... I am a HP fanatic and really big into the whole performance truck scene. I am a moderator at the biggest silverado site on the net and frequent many truck forums.
I currently own a 2004 prostreet silverado, and it has been featured in a couple issues of truckin' magazine... and the truck is being built for SEMA 2008... it is currently in the paint shop for the next month, then off to remove the current 480 rwhp set up (5.3l with a radix/meth). I am building an LSX 427 with an F1 Procharger @18psi with meth injection... I am expecting about 800+ rwhp on a mild tune... yes this is still a street/strip truck. I have about 17 sponsors and more being added daily... nothing is being overlooked, everything from the ground up is being replaced performance wise, i am about 15 months into this project... anyways... pics to follow if anyone is interested.
I NEED A DD! That is why I am here... I am not one of those fantical morons that is 100% brand loyal... i like both GM and ford... sue me!
I recently found a 2003 MM black 38k miles... absolutely CLEAN for 19k plus tax and license, at a local stealership... you can EAT off of the engine it is so clean, i was shocked. My only hesitation is the price and they will NOT budge a dime... I have financing through them, but I was pre-approved at a local credit union... it just takes about a week to process your membership and loan.
I live in Ventura County CA... I am good friends with Brain Z over at Magnuson, i should be, he installed my current maggie on my truck. So being that I cant leave ANYTHING stock... I am sure I will dive into the world of mods after i get a MM... I am just not building anything insane as I am leaving that to my 10 sec truck... (projected!)
SO i am not sure if I should get this 2003 for 19k... or if I can find another black one with less miles for the same price range.
Any help would be greatly appreciated... I am hoping to stay within CA to find a great MM... in black. Either way, I know my way around engines and performance so I am not a noob, only a noob when it comes to MMs!
Thanks, glad to be apart of the community!

new prowheels - forged one-off design 22x10's (notice the Baer 6 piston brakes and if you look closely you can see the Dynatech LTs)
