What did you do with your truck/shop today

[99silveradoz71]

It was a fairly warm day today with even more heat and some storms possible for tomorrow, so instead of the wash I had hoped for, I knocked out an oil change.

It was a very warm afternoon here too but fortunately it was cloudy, and just now it's getting windy (dust errrwhere). Although I doubt we'll get rain tonight despite how much we need it.

 

I won't be washing until Sunday if I'm lucky!

Just finished vacuuming, shampooing and scotchgarding the interior of my truck yesterday. Been a while and man does it look good now.

I don't know how accurate this might be but the engine feels peppier all around after the valve cover gasket replacements and oil change. I think that cleaning the drivers side cover definitely made an impact because it was nasty as h*ll, possibly helping oil move around better?

Did oil change to my 94 Silverado almost at 310 000km no major issues still untouched original drive train. I switched over to Castrol GTX high mileage 5w30 at 281 000km. These old 5.7 90s Chevy trucks just do t seem to give up I wish I could walk into the dealer and buy a brand new 90s Silverado there just such dam good truck. And my 94 Silverado was used and abused in the oilfield I weigh it down with 700pounds of wet frac sand for winter weight. There were times were I was pushing snow with the hood last winter and still crawling it can and has crawled through more snow then my 13 z71 Silverado. Good expensive tires and lots of weight does old 2wd wonders and no power its a wore out 5.7 so it don't have enough power to brake traction but it feels good crawling past 600HP jacked up diesels. 1990s GM trucks rule!!! Like a Rock!

That's what I was driving before I bought the '07 - a '94 K1500 with 266k+ miles. If I wasn't working 60 hours a week and had any sort of time to iron out the awful suspension, I would have kept that truck forever. I think someone before me screwed with the torsion bars. Thing rode like a rigid-frame Harley. Got old after driving a recycling route 12-15 hours a day in a loud, bouncy, POS Volvo cabover, then hopping in the '94, dead tired, and getting the snot knocked out of me some more the entire 45 minute drive home.

 

In hindsight I should've kept that damn thing.

Bankrupt Canada? I know their currency value has just tanked. Western Canada is hurting. Used to drive a lot of new campers out there. Not this year.

I'm still paying $3/gallon for high test. MA taxes for ya ... and to add insult to injury, most of it is diluted with anywhere from 15-20+% ethanol.

China and Russia are hurting also, Russia because of low oil prices.
