What did you do with your truck/shop today

[Jsdirt]

 

 

 

Come on man I expect better from you! Don't buy into that BS of guns going off randomly or even easily. I've carried my G32 most days since 2009 without incident. If you don't pull the trigger, it won't fire. End of story.

 

 

And one last thing to Sarah or anyone else really:

 

Don't skimp when it comes to the holster. It makes a huge difference in how easy it is to carry.

 

Never said any of that. It's just that I've grabbed my pistol while getting off the can, accidentally, by the trigger - just grabbed it the same way I always do, except that ONE time my finger found it's way into the trigger guard, and the weight of the pistol (which is alot) was 100% on the trigger. It was in my own bathroom, so it wouldn't have been a big deal - maybe deafened me and put a hole in the wall (and made me extremely angry with myself), but that's about it. I recognized my mistake right away, and haven't come close to doing it since. Just one second of being "too comfortable" is all it takes.

 

 

If that was a Glock, it would've went bang. I pride myself on being safe too - always have. We're only human and mistakes happen. God knows I make more than my fair share of them. Knowing this, I carry a 1911 style.

You would like a springfield XD series. I have two XD guns, and XDM 40 in olive drab green and a xd mod 2 in 45ACP. All the hype was around the new glock 43 how it was the perfect carry gun. Shouldn't have bought into it. I'm not saying it's a bad firearm whatsoever, very well manufactured and the aftermarket is huge with glocks, but I love the back strap safety (like a 1911) and trigger safety of my springfields. I also prefer how easy it is to break them down, my glock you have to pull the slide back a bit and pull down these tabs on each side, makes it very awkward the first few times you do it. Springfields you just lock the slide back, flip up a lever, release slide and pull trigger and it comes off. I will say this glock 43 is very comfortable to conceal carry, even though I'm fat lol

So my air box lid has a big old dent in it enough so that air intake tube boot leaks... and I have oily mud trails in my intake manifold.... How in the hell that even happens I have no idea...So... I am going to just get a full aftermarket air intake and be done with it. My factory air box on my old 05 fought me forever and dusted my 6 liter multiple times... now this... sigh... lol.

 

I like this truck but it keeps fighting me with ridiculous bullshit... like this. I think I might trade the heap in. .. on the one I wanted in the first place. It's my current trucks twin but in brownstone with cocoa dune... This other truck is still new on the lot a year later... It was hail damaged and the roof is still buggered but it's a brand new 0 mile never dusted and not covered in rock chips 6.2 double cab... I am really tempted.

Rotates tires, cleaned calipers

Did you really rotate the tires, or were your calipers just showing dirt.

So they went back to rear disc for '10? I don't get it ...

6.2 trucks always had rear disc and 5.3's had drums from 07 through 13

6.2L's did. Had them on my 2011 NHT truck. Edited July 25, 2016 by Daryl Z71

Ahh, gotcha.

Denali pickups had rear discs from 07 through 13... as did the 07 to 09 Vortec Max 6 liter trucks... or most of them anyway I should say with those. 2009+ 6.2 1/2 tons all had rear disc as well.

^ Yea those too. Haha!

GM is an odd company. Not unlike Harley-Davidson. They love mid-year, and cross-model changes. Can't keep up with all of it.

 

You'd think they'd want to give their techs a break, and just keep things familiar across every model. NOPE! Not in GM-land ...

Brought it home for a bit again...

The two 5.0's together again lol...
