C25A1guy, what time should I bring mine by?

LOL. Half way through I started realizing that I need more applicators and to designate more of my microfiber towels for vehicle duties. I was probably able to take care of everything within about an hour, which I'm super impressed by. I also realize that I need to get myself a DA machine to save my arms. Well, here's to rebuilding my home detailing center in 2014

I've seen a bunch of C7s before the snow flew. M plated so it was some test I guess.

Other than dropping my phone screen down on concrete tonight, I changed a headlight in the G6 and that was a bitch. Also hit this milestone with the truck. It makes approximately 25k with the 6.0 now

Hah beat you guys! I saw a C7 over a month ago! Was red and looked awesome.

Drove one back in September, VERY impressive car!! I have driven the ZL1 Camaro, the CTS-V which both have more HP that the Stingray and neither can touch the acceleration of the Stingray

Lol.... hmmmm. That Vette weighs a good 1000 lbs less than either the v or the zl1. Make my car a thousand pounds less and its no contest.

But it is not 1000 lbs lighter so it is a contest? Make my truck 5000 LBS lighter and it'd be fast too! WTF is your point?

Lol. Or how about the official quarter mile on the C7 being 12.2 is no faster than the CTS v.... Whooptee do....

Point is stating a car is faster... and its not with less power is fine but maybe consider the weight while you are at it.

Alright. Just finished. Washed with Chemical Guys Mr. Pink, wheels with CG Diablo Wheel Gel 3:1 dilution, clayed with CG blue clay pad, finishing polish with CG V38 on a white Hex Logic pad, waxed with CG Instawax+, sealed with CG Hybrid V7, dressed everything else with CG Vintage Natural Shine VRP.

What language was that?

OK, cool, argue with me, I have driven both, and the seat of the pants in the Vette vs the V was huge to me. I have driven the C6 Z06 and the ZL1 and to me the Stingray was more impressive than the others and being that it is only 450 HP vs the 540 V car and 580 ZL1 I was impressed, no need to get butt hurt it was just my opinion

      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

      By bwiese · Posted

      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.
