Couple weekends ago neighbor and I replaced both front wheel hubs. Wednesday night after work I picked up these ladies from the shelter. Tomorrow I'll hopefully do an oil change and change the brake pads on the front. 0300882e4f56e2c60e1a0430615ad9bd.jpgee02f8879bb383b2cb83ab5e360c4654.jpg

Drove down to buddy's to help him get a car he fixed for a coworker back to the coworker. Fatty did a little work for once.

 

Also added a rear seat cover for the ladies.

I really like the seat cover.  Is it a commercially available product?

Ripped out a dead tree and 4 shrubs.

 

Tree was planted in 2014.  See the tree across the street in the upper right corner?  This tree should be that big or bigger.

 

Pulling the "stump" out.

 

Shrubs in bed for dump run tomorrow morning.  The tree is all cut/broken up and in the trash can, with the smallest of the 4 shrubs.

I use it all the time. When my grandpa passed I “swiped” it from his shop as a momento.

It’s a classic all

Monday put LED T10s back in the fender markers and plate lights. Saturday changed out the lenses and wiring for the fender markers. $69.50 off ebay for all 4. Sunday drove 600+ to NC for a week long hunt/get away. Also hit 113k on the way up as well as over 16 mpg [emoji322]. Watching these corn thieves now. 20201026_084001.jpg

Sunday washday

I wish.  My Sunday was a dump run, fix the spa, and grocery run day.  Still had a inch of dirt/rock in the bed after the dump run.  Swept it out this afternoon, before rolling into work.  The drive to work took most of the rest of it out.  I have 9 little/tiny piles at the front of the bed, now.

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
