What did you give up? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

For those of you that traded a current daily driver in for the Camaro....what did you give up for it? I'm trading my 2007 Nissan Titan and contemplate changing my mind every time I drive my Titan. It's so big, luxurious, and roomy....I'm gonna miss it.

Let us know what you gave up....or will give up when your Camaro arrives.

2001 Pontiac Grand Am GT1....when my car comes in.

pruettfan · 07-05-2009, 12:48 AM

A 2006 F-150 FX4 that I hate with a passion. Not much of a sacrifice for me. I am just hoping the transmission doesn't fail again before I trade it in. After all the new transmission has 20k miles on it already, a durability record for Ford.

My sanity and a 2002 Monte Carlo SS!

2005 Toyota Tundra SR5 V6 Access cab. I bought it used and paid it off in 1.5 years so I have some great trade in value there.

Giving up nothing do not have a vehicle since I got laid off and lost my company vehicle that I used for everything... Cant wait for the camaro

2006 H2 Hummer. I bought it brand new fully loaded T.Vs only had 22,900 miles on her. I was afraid I might not be happy with interior because Hummer was really nice. and roomy. But no regrets at all! Only thing I do wish I still had was the Bose system my H2 had because it was 5 times the system the B.A system my Camaro had. No,1 Example you could listen to XM and it was so clear and loud it made regular radio seem crappy. But in my Camaro XM sucks bad!!! Barely hear some stations. And No.2 The H2 half power was as loud as Camaro full blast and no distortion at all. Very Crisp sound. Also miss 6 disk changer. But considering I dont listen to radio very loud anyways it is no big deal. I Love My 2SS IOM inside and out with Bright White Rally stripes. Good thread its interesting to see what people are trading in for these sweet rides.

I'm giving up my 08 Silverado 2500.

I love it, and doubt myself getting the Camaro, but I fell in love with the Camaro on my rental drive.
I wish there was some way of affording both...

I traded my 2007 Monte Carlo SS with 13000 miles a K&N cold air induction and Magnaflow exhaust for my Camaro that I got on 6-24-09!!!! I wanted to trade the wife's 2007 Cobalt SS for the Camaro but she would not let me. She did not like the Monte Carlo SS and she did not want to make the payment...LOL LOL LOL

MRSBMCS · 07-05-2009, 01:59 AM

I'm refinancing my H3 from 8% to 4.4% so I can get both for about 200 hundred more a month! I have the best of both worlds considering I'm moving to Notus Idaho! Teeny tiny town but it has winters so I need my H3 'cause I love it!

it's an awesome winter ride and my Camaro can be my summer car
