Coincidental parking of 3 1966 Chevy trucks let me compare short bed, long bed, and Custom editions

the reddish truck is owned by a guy with time and appreciation for woodwork, it's the custom, and has the crhrome work around the rear of the cab, and the big back window

Heavy Hitters, Nokturnal, and Swift car clubs had a car show at Hooters, some incredible paint and door hinge customization to be admired here

I should have got info about this Dodge Magnum wagon

It says Wounded Warrior Project down on the side

Nice upholstery job, not my style, but I appreciate the work and effort to make it look good

Check out all the different ways the hoods and doors are hinged, it's far out

I like the hood levering up over the windshield

$4500 dollars of airbrushing, wow!

For another look at this shows cars, look over Tere's gallery: http://justacargal-s.blogspot.com/2011/04/heavy-hitter-nocturnal-and-swift.html

http://heavyhitterz.com/ Our mission is to create yet another pathway for young marines, sailors, or civilians to get involved in something positive instead of falling through the cracks of life. In each heavy hitterz is the mind set of being a family and staying together we will be able to lift up anyones head who is slipping away. Not only do we give back to the community, to family, to charity, but we do it because we want to. We are smiled upon for a reason and over time we only what that smile to get bigger and bigger across more and more peoples faces.

Heavy Hitterz Car & Bike Club was established on the fifteenth of November 2009 with four dedicated members that all had a common interest as well as a common dream. The dream to create a family. Not just any family, but a family that didn’t look at the material things that one has, but what what each and every person holds within. Thats what separates the Heavy Hitterz from any other club there is out. When the word “family” comes into play its meant. After awhile people started seeing this and joined slowly but surely up to this present time which is about 30 members strong. HH is 99% military based with marines and sailors deployed to Afghanistan, on ship, stationed in North Carolina, or right here in Sunny California. We are a legit club that is recognized in the California Car Club Association and participate in a lot of charity car show such as The All American Car Show that gave profits to the Blind or The Toys For Tots show on MCRD. We also do family days, car washes, BBQ, and other events that just exercises the fact that we are all family. We fight, argue, and disagree like any other family, but we protect, look after, and help out just the same. So if you ever see one of us out throw some H H’s up and smile because I guarantee they are doing it right back.

2008 Mercedes-Benz GL Class

Last year, the Mercedes GL450 emerged as the most desirable luxo ute in a very desirable field. Facing an equally strong challenge for 2008, Mercedes responded by expanding the GL-class from a class of one to a family of three. For those who seek thrift and torque, there’s the GL320 CDI turbo-diesel, an impressive powerplant that’s currently creating compression-ignition converts in service with our long-term test fleet. And for those who find the GL450’s 335 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque a bit too tame, there’s the GL550, with a 5.5-liter V-8 generating 382 horsepower and 391 pound-feet.

Power is always welcome in vehicles weighing upwards of 2.5 tons, but in this class there are other important factors. Packaging, for example. The GL-class provides useful three-row seating and comfortable accommodations for seven in a wrapper that’s shorter, lower, and not quite as wide as most of the luxo leviathans. Those accommodations are posh, as you’d expect in this realm, and that wrapper is also stylish.

Another GL strong suit is refinement. The GL is exceptionally quiet, the seven-speed automatic is at the top of the charts for seamless operation, and ride quality is creamy, surprisingly so for a vehicle that’s extraordinarily responsive by large-SUV standards. None of the foregoing comes cheap, of course. But luxury is as luxury does, and the GL does it best.

2008 Chevrolet Silverado

High fuel prices have softened the market for pickup trucks, especially full-size pickups, but even so, there are more contenders in this formerly all-American arena than ever before. Which makes the Silverado’s preeminence all the more impressive.

So what gives the Silverado its edge? In a word, structure. The GMT900 truck platform, shared with the General’s full-size SUVs, set a new standard—make that the standard—for chassis rigidity, the essential starting point for ride, handling, big payloads, and hefty towing capabilities. And don’t forget durability.
