T For Tennessee

Hello all! Been lurking a while but thought I'd say hi.

 

My '09 Silverado is about my 9th Chevy/GMC truck as best as I can remember, wouldn't consider anything else.

 

Although I did have one of those four letter "F" word trucks about 20 years ago...never again. :P

 

Cheers!

Hello from a fellow Tennessee member. If I am not mistaken, I am on my 6th GM truck. Enjoy the game tonight. I hope to!!

Cool, thanks Eddie! I was just about to fire up the big screen and get ready for it!

Thanks for the welcome everyone! :banghead:

 

Another hello from a fellow Tennessean, but as you can see, I am not a Volunteer. :flag:

I'll try not to hold that against you. :)

    • Looking at cheap tires for this project '95 Blazer. I'm seeing all sorts of brands I don't recognize. 235/75/15 are the size I'm after.   "Dirt cheap" (<$100/each) Starfire Solarus (AS or AT) Rocky Mountain HT2  Mohave HT Westlake SU318 H/T Laufenn G FIT Entry Level AS (yes, Entry Level is the name of the brand!)   "Somewhat cheap" (<$150/each but >$100) Kumho Solus TA51a Ironman (Les Schwab) Cooper Discoverer RT AT Hankook Kinergy ST (H735) Milestar Patagonia H/T Toyo Extensa AS II   The only one that stands out is the Cooper Discoverer in looks and actual brand recognition for me. $120/each. The buyer for this truck will probably want a visual look of not a completely smooth car/highway tire and this one has slightly blockier tread.   Starfire is supposedly a sub-brand of Cooper. Mohave is a house brand of Discount Tire. The spelling bugs me, I've always known it as Mojave. Kumho, the name, still makes me giggle.   If I was selling it tomorrow, I'd probably go with anything in the Dirt Cheap category. But I may drive this around through the fall and my mind would be ruined knowing I'm rolling around on "Laufenn" or "Entry Level" tires, name alone.   In a world where *most* tires are now offshore-produced, is one low-buck tire much better than another?

    • Most vehicles have engine covers. The cooling fan’s are below the cover. That probably doesn’t help. I cleaned collector car engines. The rest not so much since the last one protested by missing for a few days drying out. 
    • Point of clarification on this graph. It is the life of the FLUID not the Transmission being graphed. Compare to his comments below the graph. Get it to the top of the graph and you can kill one in an afternoon.
