Offroad Trailblazers and Envoys

What did you do to your GMT today?

Trailblazer and Envoy related, but not off-road related...

I'm wiring in a different kind of radio. My head unit will remain stock, I refuse to spend what they want for a wire harness.

GL on the body lift, not looking forward to doing mine when the time comes

Made a list of things to finish on the truck for summer. Time to quit neglecting it.

I decided to get to the bottom of my problems once and for all. I'm going in to tap the wire since pulling the battery cable didn't work out.

I used to work at GSC, here in Louisville. I miss my Best Buy discount, A LOT. Especially on the accessories...

Hence, why I don't shop there, since I don't work for the company anymore, and don't get the discount. Can't wait to sell off the rest of my stock. Can't touch it till Oct, and waiting till it hopefully hits $30 a share.

Good luck with that one. Better hope their next earnings come in better than the last.

Yeah I'm not too much of a fan. They've really gone down hill for us as employees...it's unbearable.
