  1. Keep us posted! Thanks for mentioning this!
  2. I have the same noise with mine. Haven't had a chance to take it in yet though.
  3. Cut that stupid flapper out of the exhaust and call it a day. Now mine just doesn't like starting when it's been sitting for more than 5 hours in the cold. Making progress!
  4. I just got off the phone with customer service. So I have all my issues documented at least. Skunkstripe, I'm going to be asking the service manager when I finally get it in, where exactly the air comes from, so I can plug it off some how. Edit: @ Mike.... Yes I'm in a cold place. Isn't Michigan cold? Are you not noticing this problem? The windows on this truck fog up more than any truck I've owned anyway.
  5. Unreal. Does GM still have that money back guarantee? I want to get rid of this thing.

  7. I think I'm going to add an Airaid as well. I'm dying for more snap when I hit the gas. Man I miss my 6.2
  8. How did it do for throttle response?
  9. What on earth does being to Canada have to do with it? I was first on scene to a head on collision. I guess some weird thing about seeing a few people die in front of me, and a stranger's brains, makes me extra cautious on the road. You wanna be a "rebel" and put your life in danger, go for it. Not surprised by the 'Merica! replies at all. Typical.
  10. I'll take paying for a bulb over getting smoked by someone that isn't paying attention any day. Lots of people are too clueless to turn on their headlights in low visibility conditions.. I personally think that all cars should have them.
  11. Why? They're for safety. Not sure if you've ever seen the result of a head on collision... I bet you would change your tune if you did.
  12. I already have the Efi live unit from my last BB tune on my old truck.. I'll likely go that route again. I sent Justin an email last night inquiring about whether or not GM can see the tune, if I flash to stock first. I'll post back with his reply.
  13. Mine makes all kinds of weird noises at different times. I haven't driven it enough to pinpoint when they happen. I get the popping sound in the rear, a popping sound in the front. A sort of consistent whining noise, from the front driver side, very subtle, that comes and goes at the exact same time intervals at highway speed. like a weeeeoooooweeeeeeooooweeeeeeooooo.. Best i can duplicated it in text. My truck makes ALOT of noises over even slight bumps. Just don't have time, with work, to deal with any of it.
  14. Im averaging about 14 MPG's right now.. Only have about 700 km on it though, mostly highway.. Some gravel roads, some city, and some in auto 4wd... So my numbers are pretty skewed. And you know about the winds out here haha. My '13 6.2 was better on fuel, this thing is a 5.3 with 3.42's
  15. Honestly I haven't even tried FM radio. Kind of a thing of the past in my eyes. Radio around here is brutal though. It's either an MTV countdown of horrible teenage girl music, or country, and 80% commercials.
  16. Thanks! It's actually just summit, but the sun was setting, so it looks like white diamond. I'll get some better pictures when it isn't so darn cold out haha.
  17. I was going to get the painted molded mud flaps like you have, but they would get destroyed on the roads I drive. Had to go with the good old gator backs from GM. Also going to keep my big oval sidesteps, as the paint is more protected from all the crappy highways and gravel I drive on. I did notice they are better quality than the 6 inch chrome ovals I had installed on my '13 from factory. More solid, and a better finish. The ones on my '13 had surface corrosion and bubbling on them after less than a year. I mainly just have the side steps to protect the paint, they work well for that.

    Loaded, except sunroof.
  19. My '07 did the EXACT same thing as you are describing. But then it would stop for a while. GM techs never did fix it and I traded it off with the problem still occurring. Interesting discovery! Well done!
  20. I'll be tuning mine with BlackBear... Just breaking it in a bit first. I got em to do a tune for my 07 Vmax and it was quite beastly after.
