I spent a few months in Livermore 14 years ago. It was spendy back then - everything there was! Only took a few months to clean me out.

 

A motorcycle crash didn't help things. The damn Sheriff's Deptartment actually sent me a bill for coming to the scene of the crash! I couldn't believe that one. Got such beautiful weather and scenery there (and RUST FREE 60 year old vehicles!), but a completely communist government. It's too bad - I feel for you guys! God forbid you ever try to use the Second Amendment to defend yourself there ... :nonod:

Well, after 4 years of reliability my Super Start battery finally bit the dust this morning. I jumped it and let it charge back up, won't hold a charge well enough to start after a half hour. Hoping to replace it with an AGM of some kind.

I wonder why I thought the old battery was a Super Start, maybe because every other vehicle I work on has one? Anyways, out with the old in with the new. I hope I get 4 years out of this one too!

I took her for a wash after doing the wheels/tires myself and also cleaned up the interior. I desperately need a better plastic/rubber treatment, I can't stand cheapo armorall anymore.

 

And I finally took apart the engine bay light, sanded down the copper surfaces, and just tested that it works! I had cleaned up the glass and installed a new bulb last winter so it looks great. The engine bay doesn't look half bad either.

 

Up next are the front door hing pins with the drivers side having priority, then also working on sticking door locks.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.

      Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍

      Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
