LOL that's a new one, never heard Wyoming compared to Kansas

At least Wyoming has trees! :lol: I'd say ND is the 2nd Kansas, except at night you are much more likely to get antlers through your face on the highway. You cant tell the difference between eastern Colorado, western Kansas, most of Nebraska, Western OK, northern SD and most of ND(again, except for being overrun with wildlife). Of course, it is called the great plains for a reason!

Just be glad you got something that looks much better than the GMT-900s. Wait. I mean!!!

 

It's sad, I still haven't learned the platform names. I have an 09HD I like the look of my 09HD much better than the 06HD I had. I hated that Avalanche front end look. Made me miss the front end on my '01HD, seeing my 01HD the other day made me miss it too. Maybe I should have told them I was going to have to move my boat and haul a couple pallets of concrete mix around. I wonder what putting either on this will do to it lol

99-early 07 is the gmt800 platform, late 07- 13 (15 for HD's) are gmt900's (your new truck) and then from 14- 17 are the k2's. Next platform is the T1XX platform I believe

Yeah sounds about right. I still have to look it up every time, my memory is pretty bad.

I don't want to moderate anything. I'm too much of an a-hole with too little patience. It wouldn't be pretty.

Did the paperwork on my new gun yesterday and changed my air filter today. Need to process some orders today as well.

 

This is old and new. Old one was in there for 42 months and over 70,000 miles in a smoggy, dusty, agricultural area.

Looks like the filter for the 6.6 with a giant rubber reducer.

Yeah man, I'll be at the York county Fair Saturday evening for a concert and then we're going to Hershey Park Sunday and leaving from there. I don't know PA at all, where are you located at?

Sounds fun. I'm pretty far from York and Hersey actually. I'm 60 miles from Harrisburg.

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Dave's Auto (custom engine builder) tear down of L8T

      By No F-bdy Bs · Posted

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.

      "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
