Good stuff guys. Have some thinking to do. The plan is to get a C7 GS in about 2 years (daughter will graduate college). I should have a pole barn by then. Given that, I may do a nicer pickup now as a DD and get the Vette as a toy.
The reason I am torn is that I was most content with my 05 CTSV. It was nice enough to drive to C and C but not so nice I didn’t want to drive it. I drove it everywhere in every type of weather. That would say option 1.
I do know that whatever I get as a DD needs to be nice and unique in some way. I won’t be content with a normal stripper pickup (though the Silverado posted above is pretty good looking). I also take coworkers and clients to lunch from time to time so has to be pretty nice. I stopped in and looked at a new Colorado ZR2 and really liked it. Do I need an off-road setup? No but have you seen it? I worry the bed is too small but hate the looks of the long bed. Note I have a utility trailer for bigger items and the smaller pickup will fit in the garage.
The thought of driving a CTSV again or an SS or a S4 makes me smile though.
