Hey guys, I took my truck out today and got a few pics of some articulation. The Rancho and the Chevy performed quite well.

Looks great John.  Looks like you had some fun.  I can't wait till I can get my truck lifted.  Your truck is so sweet, it is one of the best I have seen (I've said it many time on FSC, but everytime I see your truck it just looks better).   :thumbs:  :D

 

I gotta get some pics developed of my mudding last weekend, it was fun, but a lift really would have been nice, it may have kept some of the mudd out of my engine bay, it was too clost to the muddy water.

Hey thanks guys, I really wanted some mud but it hasn't really rained significantly here in a while. It was like a desert out there.

 

Appreciate the good comments,

John

I know how that is John.  I live in a freakin' hellish desert, it hasn't rained here, (well unless you call .02 of an inch rain), since July 4th.  It is horrible.  I mean when they tell you there is a severe drought in the damn desert then you know something is wrong.   :angry:  :angry:

I heard that sincityZ71  ;)  but thats ok with me. I kinda like that kind of 4wheelin. I enjoy going down to the beach and kickin up some sand or going off road like today. Its more enjoyable when you can go offroading and not have to come back and spend 3-4 hours cleaning your truck  :thumbs:

Good pics John.  I like that kind of wheelin' too.  Alot easier to clean up.  :D   All the red clay down here SUCKS!

 

BTW, how is the wear, wet/dry traction, and mild off-road traction on the Goodyear AT/S tires?  I'm considering some of those in the 285 size.

Yeah I know how that is, too me a couple of hours just to wash off mud last time I got into some major mud.  It was a pain in the a$$.  Off-road out there in the desert is alot of fun though, and not to messy, your vehicle is always dusty here no matter what, so what is a little more. :thumbs:

The tires are great Tom. They perform really well on wet roads especially if you hit a large puddle of water the tires drive straight without pulling you into it. The dry is outstanding, no noise whatsoever. I have only had them for 8,000 miles, but I can't even tell any treadwear.

    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
    • New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended? 
    • So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.
