Not so much worried about issues is I just want something new. The 2014s have had some teething issues but I'm sure by this time next year when I buy they'll be sorted out. No reason to hang on to old stuff when I can buy new and better.

They look cool but I won't buy one I'd have to spend a ton to delete all the nonsense on it and I'd rather not have a truck that will dent if you look at it long enough

Helped the future sister in law move, 3 loads in mine and 3 in a Ford and all done, thankfully the move was about 12 blocks so didn't take too long

Its not due to cold. My truck had them peel when it was 8 years old too. Went to LMC and bought new ones

Lemme see.... since the 05 is being replaced it has decided to implode. Today I did waterpump number 5 ( went $400 OEM gm this time), this is its third encoder motor assembly ( again a new OEM gm one), and the front driveshaft seal on the t case started puking.... and the seal is a misery... its a 2 piece rotating thing that presses into the case as well as on the shaft... I gave up and booked it in a shop tomorrow for it. Getting the old abortion out is one thing but not screwing up the new one going back in is another... Oh well.

 

And I started my modding of my new one. First off was toss the ugly step bars off and yank the front licence plate bracket. Next will be pulling off most of the decals on it, tint, 3m, mudflaps, exhaust and a tune. All with 20 miles on the odometer lol.

Hell no lol.

 

I hauled the old 05 into town to let a shop swap the seal.... and in its last hurrah it tried to fall off the trailer. No 4wd and its snowing so stuff is slippery. Touch the throttle... and I mean just off idle and it spins, pulls sideways and almost falls off the ramp... Thankfully I have a winch so sucked it back on the trailer and borrowed a floor jack to lift the back of the truck and center it on the deck again. Them off it came. My spare tire carrier on the trailer us getting cut off too... its always in the way as it sticks up beside the deck. It broke the front of my inner fender but didn't wreck the valence thankfully.

You bought a new hat that is torn? Please tell me you don't also buy pre-ripped jeans. :lol:

 

 

Was supposed to drive up to Midland for a customer visit and arrive early to take the safety training. TPS in the truck took a crap and left me driving 25 miles back home in limp mode with a max speed of 40 and sloooooooow acceleration. Dealer can't provide a loaner/rental for same-day repairs so I had to get a rental through work to drive up and do the job. Truck is done but I didn't get back in town in time to get it so tomorrow that will be the first thing I do. Be curious to see if the new programming that goes with the new TPS makes the truck drive any better. Not that it matters since I'll load the tune in as soon as I'm back home.

Ya, i didnt realize it was ripped when i bought it. Thats they style? Comfortable hat though. Why is the pic sideways on my phone it looked fine in the post?

 

Pre-ripped jeans? Hell no. Skinny Jeans? Hell no. My jeans only get ripped while working (or on the inside of the garage door when I snag them grrrr)
