Automotive Your Ride

The lease is about to end on my dad’s crewcab and he decided he wanted something cool to replace it as well as not have to make payments. Well with my help we found a badass truck to fulfill his needs. The thing is a fuggin blast to drive!

2001 GMC Sierra C3
6.0L engine AWD
Radix supercharger
Stage 2 programming
Magnaflow exhaust
20" Centerline wheels w/ upgraded brakes
Only 55,000 miles

We don’t have exact horsepower numbers, but the guy he bought it from claims it has somewhere from 470-500hp.

My dad plans to remove the fender flares ASAP





I’ll get better pics after he gets it detailed.

DAmn thats a really nice truck, probably really fast too.

however i think the fender flares have to stay on unless u have a replacement for them but im not sure

3

paint the flares or get some that you can paint

4

who makes that s.c.? ive been looking at paxton superchargers for my truck but theyre centrifugal and I would prefer root style like your pops has.

5

oh radix… i guess i could read everything and then ask…

6

Oh just loving that Super charger!!!:D:D:D Wicked truck mate. Fuel must be dirt cheap over there in the states V8’s are so cheap to buy over here now coz people are finding them costing to much to run!:frowning:

7

Whats gas of their now… like $6.50 USD? per liter?

8

Nah mate…its approx $1.70 a litre, but not the main problem. The Gov slapped a heavy Tax on Gas Guzzlers, like 3 x wot it costs to run a car on the road!

9

I meant $6 a gallon… thats what it was when i was there…

10

The original owner added the fender flares and it’s just a bunch of sticky gunk holding them on.

11

What does C3 mean? i am a ford guy not really up on my Chevy stuff. But look like a sleeper i like it

12

The Sierra’s C3 moniker is General Motors shorthand to indicate GMC’s century of truck innovation (C) summed up in three qualities: performance, control and capability.

C3 is basically what a Denali is today.

13

So, all Denali’s are AWD?

14

no i think all sierra denalis r

15

Ya I’m pretty sure all Denalis come in AWD

16

Yipes that MotherSmurfer must be FAST! Right on, good buy!

17

look into magna chargers if you want to go supercharged.

18

im racist againts chevy trucks , and that dont seem like it will do a bit of good for anything. even being supercharged , FX4superduty dudes truck could spank it with noprob, total waste of money.
