 | the newer trucks  good luck with that. it all has to do with the traction control and the computer. my brother in law had a envoy and we tried and the only thing it would do is if you were turning a corner from a stop and hit it it would only chirp the tires  . have you tried to start on some dirt and ease it on to payment yet that might be the only way.

| GM's do not have enough power to burn out.  Sorry, I had to. I own two Chevy's so I can talk poop. But yeah, the computer is going to try and stop you.

| 03 is right, with the traction control and all the computer assited programs built in, it is nearly imporrisble. And if you were trying to do a stoped burn out(a.k.a. brake stand) then with the new style abs systems, that will also never happen.... and as for chevy's not having enough power  ..... I think I will let that comment go! LOL....

| hahaha, gotta love the gubberment and their little safety devices. if you want to do a burn out then you will have to sink a lot of money into a programmer to get rid of some of the junk they put on the truck. your truck also has a traction control device, so that will apply the brakes when it feels the wheel slipping.
