Hello all and I who like to introduce myself to your wonder website of talking GM Truck products.I have had to this date 5 Chevy trucks,2 Fords,2 Dodges,in my life time and have a wealth of information,that I have gathered over the years concerning the big 3 trucks.Both gas,and diesel.LD and HD versions.I talk trucks alot each day both to myself and others who are willing to listen and learn about this amazing animal called a truck.They all have there ups and downs and some even having engineering nightmares of which I had to sort out on my own or the with advice from a tech or on the phone with a engineer,trying to statistfy a customer to no end.I was a member in the early days on one of the first website about pickup truck's after the worldwide web was invented, a place call Pickuptruck.com,who today is now routinely invited to attend one of the Big 3 introduction or rollout of a new truck every year.Many of heated debates came through that website and in the end a moderator would invite a rep or engineer from the manufacture if they had time,to help end a arguement about some system in powertrain or chassis and which one was better GM,Ford's or Dodge's.In the end I have found over the years that each was very loyal to his truck would defend his truck even despite it's misgivings.Call it a child that had ADD and so did the father,together they would make perfect music together.Totally happy with the Twin I beam or the TBI injection system,or the streering box that wander all the time.There is no perfect fish out there.With all that said I look forward to more learning as the days go by,on my newest horse in the stall a 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD,LT,6.0L.I have been learning quite fast now these days about this powertrain called the L96 Gen II version,with it VVT system,and how it enter acts with the E38 ECM and the TCM.Quite amazed at this fly by wire system,and how my foot interacts with this electronic thottle body.But that is for a different topic posted somewhere else.Good luck to all with their GM product and wish you all happy days down the trail with your truck,I look forward to learning and helping others enjoy this fine stead call a Silverado,and its twin the Sierra. :thumbs:
