  1. That’s fine but when all is said and done, you bought a V8 and not a 4 or 6 cylinder because it is much more authoritarian than the 4’s or 6’s, the 5.3 is a great motor, both have been around a while, one just has much more hp and torque than the other and does cost more and prefers Pwemium too. There’s no reason not to buy either. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. That’s it! The word “Authoritarian” best fits the 6.2. Both are great motors for what they are but the 6.2 demands more respect as it’s a much more “Authoritarian” motor setup. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. I’m really digging the Trail Boss, looks like it means business. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Congratulations, that’s just awesome that you’re enjoying your 5.3, it’s an excellent platform and as you’ve already pointed out, there was no need for the extra horsepower and torque. The new T1’s are a bit lighter therefore better weight torque horsepower ratio. But, that said, the 6.2 isn’t as you’ve described, there have been numerous tests performed between the two and the 6.2 always came out with flying colors. For anyone on the border line between the two, here’s a video on both, towing experiences on the 5.3 versus 6.2 https://www.tfltruck.com/2018/08/all-new-2019-chevy-silverado-1500-5-3l-vs-6-2l-v8-first-towing-review-video/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Looks like this thread has been hijacked by someone’s build lmao! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. KO2’s aren’t after thoughts, their siping is deep with water exits on both sides Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. 33.5” KO2’s. Here are my new Nitto Ridge Grapplers, look at the sipping when new, has an exit for water, looks like an after thought Now look at 13k miles, notice the sipping disappearing, water has nowhere to go. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. That’s cause it’s a great looking truck! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. I had bad luck with my Ridge Grapplers, both sets wore out far to fast, the sipping disappears and water has nowhere to go so I slid quite a bit. They do have great sidewalk protection Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Btw, maybe I’ve missed it but what year is your truck? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. He’s not asking for anything out of the ordinary, he’s got a point. These forums are beginning to get more and more negative. Let’s not focus on the negatives but rather assisting him on positives. Seems to me he’d get an answer either way, he’s already at a negative so either we help him or say nothing at all. I’d try and reason with the dealership and if say it’s out of their hands and refusing to assist then write up a very negative review especially considering with all the negatives publicity GM is currently going through for the exact issues. Speaking with the GM of the dealership may help too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Aside of the current issue, I’d keep it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. If you’re enjoying your truck, check your odometer mileage when purchased, may have had a couple thousand on it already, fix it and try to get a good deal either through the dealership or independent shop, whichever makes you happier. If not, sell it or just trade it in! Currently, GM (as others) is in a massive lawsuit with consumers for their knowingly selling vehicles with faulty transmissions. As of today, each and every manufacturer out there has been pushed to the outer limits by the EPA and trying to out do each other, no guarantee any manufacturer will be problem free, those old days are gone as we now live in a disposable world. If you’ve got geico or another insurance, they may have an added protection plan available that would 100% cover it. There are a couple good aftermarket companies out there that could help with breakdowns, your service department would know their names. A buddy of mine bought a new Raptor last year, been in the shop 6 times for the same over heating issues and seal issues in door when it rains. He paid $80 plus custom work to it. Now a days, new is a crap shoot, may be better off just fixing it and keeping it as you know your truck. Just remember, ALL the manufacturers are concentrated on profits over quality, all of them!

  14. I believe but not completely sure that CST Suspension has a full skid plate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. It’s definitely the Chinese trying to pull the wool over our heads, attempting to create chaos throughout worldwide economic sectors Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. My experience with brand new Defenders in snow wasn’t so good, ice was really bad. KO2’s as well as DuraTracs are awesome in the snow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Hey Karnut, this sound like a conspiracy theory or reality? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. It’s one thing reporting an AHole but reporting someone stating the “actual truth” something that’s been on the news is no different than social media blocking conservative views but promoting socialist control. Its funny though, let the sheep do as they’re told, they’re happier being led. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. Conspiracy theory, now that’s a new one lol. Why did multiple doctors come out and do a press release, speaking out against mainstream media and that it’s very curable and that people don’t have to die only to be hushed, all social media deleted any and all traces of the press release? My buddy was in Florida a few months ago when it was so called going on heavy, he waited in line for three hours with his family of 5 and decided to do it another day so they left only to receive positive test results in the mail. WTF! They weren’t tested so how could they know if they had it? It’s all BS! Yes, some are dying from it, just as almost 100k die per year from the flu alone. Everything has complications due to “Corona Virus”, you die from car accident and “Corona Virus” is to blame, drink to much and overdose to have “Corona Virus” as reason for cause of death! In the event you didn’t know, Cities and states get funding for each death and it’s already been proven that most weren’t caused by it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Long strolls on the beach right after dinner, one of my favorites Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Some folks need it but most don’t. If you’ve got a weak immune system chances are you’ll need one, some have got serious complications from having it. Imagine, it’s a weaken strain of that your body can’t fight well so they’re receiving a weaker dose to help build their immune system, hmmmm Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Btw, wearing masks not only hinders oxygen intake but has been found to be a “DANGEROUS” breeding ground for bacteria. Some of the worst bacteria is found through the process of digestion, starting your mouth. Many people are also allergic to the synthetics as well as claustrophobic. In addition to all this, why hasn’t anyone condemned he loser rioters for not wearing proper masks if any as well as social distancing? That’s cause this is targeting conservatives, the ones that protect the rights for “We The People”. Pro choice, it’s ok to for babies to be thrown in the blenders in order to contain and minimize the growth of society (Something Bill Gates Loves!) and yet you’ll only find these murdering abortion clinics in low income areas, yeah, pro choice now means “Do As I Say and Not As I Do!”, got that one from hideous Pelosi.

  23. Absolutely correct! I’ve been saying it for months, Wuhan lab is where bio weapons are manufactured, it’s common sense. There are sooooo many ignorant gullible people in the world, rea search and you’ll find the way [emoji6] Woohoo, Trump2020! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Simple, I’m not sick, nor do I spit or sneeze! Sick people should wear them, NOT HEALTHY PEOPLE, choice to wear, Capeesh! I’m surrounded by people everyday, I’ve never gotten sick (except for that one day when I ate to much pie). If you’ve got a weak immune system, common sense should take over and be worn even without China Virus. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  25. With all due respect, you put to much faith in the system. My parents did and got wiped out as soon as the market crashed. They rebuilt their lives, invested in real estate, never in the market my father used to say, only real estate. My father came from the old country, where socialism currently takes control of everyday spending, controlling of daily lives. Here in America my fathers work ethics thrived, self employed, saving his money and not in 401’s, buying property 30 yrs ago for $130K, now worth multiple millions. You’re definitely right about Greed but now one is more Greedy than Government. No where in the Constitution does it ever bring up taxation. Government is the Greediest of all! The “China Virus” as it’s really known for, is without a doubt a China made Virus that’s somehow escaped out of a Chinese military lab, covered up but worthless “who” and if it wasn’t for President Trump, we’d all be in a world of financial disaster! You stand wearing a mask, sit without a mask like it’s going to make a freaking difference being one foot taller or shorter in height, BS! Masks DO NOT protect you from viruses, not even N95’s but forcing people to comply to these ridiculous demands is ludicrous. It’s proven that forcing someone to cover their faces is a form of control, hence the Muslim culture, forcing women to wear face coverings is a form of slavery! Notice Fauci? Has been spotted in multiple occasions, even at stadiums along with his booty buddy Bill Gates that wants to implant chips into ever human being on the planet as well said getting rid of half the population on the planet will be a good thing, yeah and NOT wearing a mask, only when doing press releases. There have been far more deaths with other viruses and yet no requirements to wear masks, coincidence now that the Democrats are becoming more socialist? Bingo! Apparently, Texans are much more easily aggressive towards those that attempt to control “We The People” maybe this is why it’s the #1 thriving State in the USA. Quite possible the #1 reason more people are relocating to Texas than anywhere else. China/Corona Virus is lab created. Greed, it’s everywhere, literally, even in Internet forum.
