Cussed out my cd player anyone else have trouble with their 6 disc cd changers? Omg mine hates reading some cds

 

My one disc can be tempermental when it gets really hot outside. I have to get the player to cool down and then I can play cd's again. Then yes, some cd's just will not play no matter what, no scratches just won't play then they eject themselves.

That crap isn't even funny man- before I moved I was watching my friends kid one day (he's 7) and he was trying to find something to watch on TV and he passed by some show that had a person on like a mid-90s cell phone (not the comically huge 80s ones) and my friends kid asked what it was and he did not believe me that it was a cell phone-

 

 

"That isn't a cell phone Mike. Phones can play angry birds, you know that."

Trust me I'm the same but what I was getting at is how I don't like seeing what was cutting edge when I was a kid being considered obsolete. Makes me realize I'm getting old. :lol:

My truck has been sitting in the driveway at home since April 15th while I'm away for work. I won't be home again until the 22nd of this month. In the meantime though I've ordered new Bilstein 5100's, a new 2012 LTZ grille shell, Recon tailgate light bar, new LED reverse lights, 50w HID ballasts to replace my 35w ones, and just now a bunch of stuff to do a full detail (Flex DA, pads, sealant, and wax). When I get home, the front and rear bumpers are getting powdercoated, everything is getting installed, the windows are finally getting tint, and the truck is going to the body shop to get the back of the bed fixed. (I had some boxes of flooring hit the front of the bed, bending it against the back of the cab after a hard brake when somebody cut me off). So a lot will be changing shortly. Its killing me to have all this stuff sitting at home waiting to be installed and I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere in Wyoming.

I've never owned a vehicle for longer than a week without putting aftermarket HU in it LOL. I can't stand factory HU's they drive me nuts!! My new JVC arsenal is unreal, Bluetooth, navi, DVD and I can run my iPhone from the HU...just plug it in with an actual iPhone cord directly to the deck. I can go thru all my music without touching my phone!! Also has amazing frequency, sub-sonic adjustments. Amazing head unit.

Drove another 350 miles with the wife, DIC shows 17.5 MPG and with all of the two lane roads and stop lights I feel that is pretty good. We were to have rented a mid size car for the week but I told the wife NO we will go in my truck. Right now the bed is over half full to the bed cover with treasures she has bought.:jester:

      seat base height *lowering* (base 40/20/40 seat, 2026 1500 WT std cab)

      By bwiese · Posted

      Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose

      I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Dave's Auto (custom engine builder) tear down of L8T

      By No F-bdy Bs · Posted

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
