My son had to inform me I got the truck stuck in the grass. I then thought he must be thinking of Mike :lol:

Dammit, I got stuck in sand! :lol:

 

Next time I'm in Indy I ought to swing by, bury my truck to the axle in your yard so he can see what stuck is. :lol:

 

Does your truck have a rear camera? Mine does and the son of one of the guys from work loved it, but never understood what it did cause He'd have me pop it in reverse, he'd run out behind the truck by the lens then run back to try and see himself "on TV". :lol:

 

Of course, being the responsible adult that I am, when he asked why he couldn't see himself on the screen when he ran back my response was:

 

"You need to run back up front faster, Owen".

 

 

I'm such an ass. :lol:

My truck doesn't buy my car and wife's van does. He hasn't paid attention to it yet

I went to the range with my friend. I took my 1911 and my friend took his little .380 purse gun lol.

That's good Baiken. Now imagine coming close to that happening every day. :lol:

 

Why will she hate those shocks Nitro? I've never had ProComps.

Going to find out how good these Goodyear SRA pizza cutters I'm running on are this week, they're talking somewhere around a foot of snow on Thursday...Hmm, maybe those 305/40's summer tires would just float on top and I'd be fine....yeah right. I'm with you Danny, Coopers coming, next winter for me. Think I'll go with the Zeon LTZ's, I like the tread pattern and let's face it, this truck isn't built for off-roading.

Ben, what did you have to fix to get all squared away from the Bambi bashing?

 

Had to get the dent popped out then replaced the fender flares. I wound up having to replace all 4 flares because the original ones had faded so much that it didn't look good having one brand new and 3 old ones.

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
