  1. Tires rub a bit when you crank the wheel, but I can deal with that. My front bumper isn't chipped, it's bugs. I have the bumper, and well as the painted part of the grill covered in protective film. As well as the mirrors, behind the wheels, headlights, fog lights. He also added some more rugged wrap on the back edges of the front bumper, where rocks would hit it. You can kinda see it in the one picture. I had to drive down a sketchy washed out road to get to this fishing spot. I just rolled along like it was nothing. These tires are pretty awesome.
  2. That is strange.. I'm sure you can browse like that, but not sure about USB. I use a 64 GB SD card, and I can browse both in the small display, and in the large display. If all else fails, I'd grab an SD card. It works very well.
  3. Mine went in for a 2.5 level, front and back, as well as some Duratrac 305/55/20's. Pretty stoked to see it tomorrow.
  4. He said they shouldn't be able to, as he modifies the factory tune, instead putting a whole new one on. It's a roll of the dice IMO.
  5. I live in Canada too.. Justin at Blackbear has done my last two trucks, and will be doing this one.
  6. A constant battle in the great white north. Nothing unusual about it. Whack the wipers on the windshield to knock off the ice, scrape excess ice away.
  7. Are they frozen to the windshield?
  8. Cool, I ordered one. Thanks for the picture!
  9. I never use radio anyway so I'd like to try that stubby. Thanks Kuug!
  10. Where does one find this mod?
  11. I've been in touch with Justin at Blackbear.. Just waiting for the TCM tune to be available before I pull the pin. He did my last two trucks as well.
  12. I've been debating forever. For what I need, the Bakflip F1 is going to be my choice.
  13. A tad unsettling considered our entire trucks are built in Mexico haha
  14. Seems as time goes on, there are more and more reasons that they don't start haha
  15. Its the dead of winter here. They fog up on mine too. Wont be seeing any rain for another couple months.
  16. Mine literally clunks in and out of it. It almost sounds like its gearing down. So brutal
  17. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iixUm13Opj0 I uploaded mine. It didnt take as long to start as it normally does, but shows it smoking. It also usually smokes more than this, but the truck was running a few hours before. Only mods done to the truck are, cut out the exhaust flapper, and installed a FloPro muffler
  18. They probably wont be fogged unless the lights have been on.
  19. The dealer will tell you to click your key back and forth ten times to heat up the condensation in the starter, from it being built in Mexico. It happened to me once, and hasn't happened again. I swear I'm driving a truck from the 70's.. Oh wait, they are more reliable.
  20. Quoted from an email correspondence with Justin from Blackbear. "There is history tracking in them just like there is in a number of newer gas platforms as well as Diesel trucks. I don't know what the law is like in Canada, but in the US, the manufacturer cannot void a warranty just because they want to. They can try, but unless they can prove that the modifications made was the cause of a failure, they don't have any footing to stand on. This is the Magnusson Moss act here. I would also like to note that in gas engines, they've had tracking since 2011 with the 2500 series trucks. We have yet to have any customer have an issue with warranty work. Tuning alone just doesn't stress any component out enough to cause an issue." For any Canadians reading this, we do not have this act in Canada.
  21. Im not taking any chances with tuning, with all the problems arising.
  22. I've thought about replacing my battery, but I think that is GM's job, not mine. I haven't looked at the battery to see what the CCA are, but it cranks fine anyway, it just doesn't like starting.
  23. At least you get a ride to work every day. I get stranded in the middle of nowhere when mine wont start haha
  24. Mine do the same thing and its -6 F here. Definitely not raining any time soon
