    And I thought this forum was full of adults, what a bunch of pointless bickering. Better engine? Grumpys right, they all make the same power to much the truck at any given mph, if it takes 100 hp to over come air resistance and rolling resistance at 60 mph, that's the power they both make. The 6.2 makes more power, sure.

    Just a little kidding there.... Obviously you aren't driving with your ear to the grill. But, I'm trying to point out, if you have to listen that closely, and can nearly hear it, what are we looking for here? We've all heard the AC compressor kicking in and out over the decades, but I have never thought that the AC should be silent when operating, I dunno.

    I'm trying to figure out how you drive with your ear next to the grill.... Can't be that loud if you have to put your ear next to the grill, right?

    Scream at the idiot operator until denting stops.......

    I put some crazy Rancho RS9000's, adjustable rear shocks on my mine. They actually do adjust, you can feel the difference from 1 to 6 on the adjustments, when I load to max in the bed, I"ll jack the damping up on them, it's kind of a pain in the butt drawing under the truck, so I just leave them in the middle....

    Just me, but, I like more rubber then wheel. For me, it's the weight trade off. Wheels that big are heavy, weight in the exact wrong place, unsung weight, and rotating mass, both effect stopping, acceleration, suspension movement, road noise. It goes on and on for me. I would never go over 18's on my truck. Just me.

    this, thank you.

    Excellent, keep working at it, you'll score that hat, and be the only one you'll every see with it.

    Bingo, nice truck there. But the last place I would buy a vehicle is California.

    I still see no Double Cabs around in the inventory yet, well, a bunch of Work Trucks, but not interested in a WT. IF I trade, that would be my cab desire, probably long bed. Far and few between.

    What POS dealership id this, we need to black ball them.

    They can't just say it had water introduced in it, they have to prove. They are ****ing you by saying this.

    285 75 18's on 18x9 +12 offset, the offset had me rubbing at full crank, upper control arms, aftermarket keys, shock extenders. Stock wheels probably would have worked with stock everything with these tires..... Oops, non stock offset, sorry. Just plain disregard, can't find out how to delete, wrong everything.

    Her in Florida, everything off road is sand or mud, so if you go off road you will need 4x4 soon.

    Still no double cabs, would like to see one.....

    I think I would throw the switches and the keys over to the sales manager desk, keep you $70,000 truck you can't install ordered parts on. Truly unbelievable.

    Short little trips can leave me with a 16 or 17 mpg on the gage, but it always averages out to about 12 mpg, so 18 13 12
  19. gearheadesw
    Wait, what, you have to install something you ordered with a new truck yourself? That's BS, what if something goes wrong, not even Kia makes you install ordered parts onto your vehicle.

    Well, now what do I say? It's human nature to like easy convenience, I'm guilty. I feel as a species, we are depending on machines to do our thinking for us, and forgetting how to think of ourselves. I used to remember so many phone numbers, now with the cell phone, just press a button and it calls, I don't remember phone numbers for crap anymore.....

    You might want to inform them that, after 3 tries to correct the same problem, it can start to proceed to the lemon law BS. What a total load of shit, brand new truck, if the wheels and tires aren't the problem, then what is Mr GM????
  22. gearheadesw
    Seems to me, I dunno, but with the crazy shape of the GMC wheel well, it looks to have less clearance then a Chevy, again, I don't know.
  23. gearheadesw
    Why do people suddenly not want to drive? All this driverless car crap, take the bus or train, then cab, see, you didn't drive..... Just like computers. it will stop people thinking, just press buttons and go.
  24. gearheadesw
    One more reason to keep the '17, hate that BS.
  25. gearheadesw
    I’m sorry for whoever thinks that wheel and tire combo looks good.
