I can't wait to have my cluster back. Pretty excited.

Hope he's as good as me. l0l

 

Did 2 more this afternoon, so that's 5 for the day. I told my brother I needed a break and he said '' You're the boss''.

 

You're the boss doesn't stop the phone from ringing.

Bare metal on frame exposed by some kind of scratch. Sanded, primed, painted with flat glass, then clear-coated. Sounds like a bigger project than it was - took all of 15 minutes. Just don't frame exposed to the elements. Still can't get over the fact that a bare-metal frame is wax dipped and not powder painted.

The mountain areas here are good about the road upkeep. And they don't use salt

Yeah .. salt. I wish I hadn't gone out today. What a friggin mess! Roads in town were BARE. :nonod: Truck WAS spotless when I left too. Not anymore.

 

Took backroads home to try and wash some of it off by doing 50 mph in the powder. Wasn't a long enough stretch to do much.

 

I'll tell ya though, these Blizzak DM-V2s stick like GLUE. I came down my hill at just under 50 & firmly applied brake - wasn't until I was almost stopped that the ABS kicked in. Was like driving on bare but wet pavement -felt exactly the same. Granted, this isn't crap for snow - barely 1/2". This storm is just getting ramped up.

Just repaired a pair of ( 15114374 ) for a 2007 Uplander. He just came from the dealer where they quoted him $365Cdn programmed. I love helping people save money, you should have seen his eyes after trying both of them multiple times and me asking for $30. Priceless!!!!! I love my life

      OCI, not when but why?

      What’s missing in all this is patience and investment in the future. Buy a 170K starter home. Ten years later sell it invest in a more expensive home. Eventually you’ll have a 600K home and pay starter home payments. Buy a starter car. Maintain it well. Save the payments after it’s payed for then buy an expensive car if you desire. Buy a tumbler make your own coffee, pack your lunch. Cook your own dinner. Most importantly take care of your car.

      People mislead themselves. Statistics are highly useful indicators.   Here's the tie-in to this thread. If an oil sample tests shows a wear indicator of 7 using cheaper ACDelco oil, and a wear indicator of 2 (lower = less wear) using a particular brand of Mobil oil, and wear has a linear relationship with engine lifespan, anyone could assume that Mobil is reducing wear by more than 50% (let's just say a 200% reduction for you red state people trying hard to do math) which leads to increasing engine life by 2x. Perhaps, in a vacuum, by itself, when dreamed by AI.   Yeah?! That's what the statistic is saying, isn't it?   No, it isn't. It didn't come out and say engine life is doubled. That's a very bad assumption, and a case of severe myopia by assuming something potentially untrue about the only data point in focus.   Average cost of a new car is 50k. You bet it is.   The median cost of a new car is more like 35k. Expensive cars are skewing the perception that "average" now means a $50k price of entry for a very average automobile. And that's not true. People who don't understand statistics twist the living heck out of them to mean all sorts of things they don't actually mean.   "Average" new car payment is $1000/month. Yep, it is. And in that number are all the $35k new car buyers who bring significant equity, and the $25k new car buyers who finance the car for a month just to get a rebate, and then pay it off. Know what isn't in that number? All the payments made by people who don't finance a car.   Picking one's own data point (don't have a car payment, never paid $50k for a new vehicle, my house cost $170k, I afforded a middle class lifestyle on $4.50/hr) is just a data point. Just like earning $25/hr in an area where the median home price is almost $1 Million is a data point. In fact, it's a lot of data points given that 80% of the US population lives in/around major cities. They're not idiots; the vast majority of them do it to make a living because that's where the big money is.   The highs have become higher, lows have become lower, and how your personal mileage varies is not truth for an entire country. At the same time you can't NOT acknowledge the data. While it doesn't paint YOUR personal picture, it certainly tints the reality that you also live in, as does your single data point.

      Poll: Does your truck have the rear window leak?

      By ShotgunZ71 · Posted

      Glad you had success with it. I did as well, but about 5-6 months later it returned. Tried again, same result. This was after the dealer made several attempts and never even got it to slow down.
