I got around to replacing my sway bar end links and bushings. The end links were cake, but the bushings ended up going back a couple of time to get the right size. There were 3 options (sizes), I chose the middle one and was wrong. Ended up having to get the 1-5/16" size. Almost thought they were wrong as well but after bolting them up they seem to fit the bill. No real noticeable change in ride, but just another worn out part that was bugging me to replace.

Some running around with the wife and our new little one. First trip for the daughter in the truck.

 

The day after my son got out of the hospital we took a trip to the chevy dealer to purchase my 2010. It arrived on the truck 2 hrs before he was born. Salesman called and wished me congrats I said he isnt here yet, said well your truck is lol. Friday afternoon I went home to get a shower, I snuck over to the dealer to take it for a ride. Got back to the hospital and my wife knew I was going to do that

Sounds like you really can't put much over on her.

Blew front axle seal pulling camper in freezing rain. Boy this truck stinks of burning gear oil on the exhaust.

I just hand washed the wheels, tires, and wheel wells in preparation for taking her for a full wash. She hasn't been washed in over a month but with great weather I don't have any more excuses.

 

And this is what 3 out of 4 latitude tours look like after about 48k miles :

Still great in dry pavement and even rain, but definitely no more snow! lol

Good thing you don't have to deal with snow down there! You'd be in the woods the first mile (and you don't have woods to deal with out there either - another bonus! ). :lol:

I replaced all the hard-wired smoke detectors in our house today with new smoke/CO detectors. They were over 20 years old. Had to put up new mounting rings and re-wire. Very easy, took about 90 minutes or so to do all seven of them.

 

By then it was warm enough outside to mop the garage floor (epoxy coated) to get the winter slop off it. It was 36 out today; first day above freezing in about three weeks. That took about two hours.

 

Then I checked all tire pressures, oil, washer fluid, etc. in all our vehicles while waiting for the garage floor to dry. It was nice to be outside in the fresh air.

 

Then it was time to watch the Broncos/Patriots game. I've been in the La-Z-Boy ever since. LOL

Definitely no woods but plenty of snowbirds and soccer moms instagramming while driving!

 

HAHAHA! Yeah I remember that every winter. Used to see them upside-down at every intersection across the valley ...

This is amazing.

 

The only other thing I've ever seen with that many miles on it was a Mercedes 1113. (Excluding Peterbilts and road trains, of course).

    • 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.
