There are lots and lots and lots of REALLY good looking trucks in this thread. Seriously, I love them all. I humbly present my addition to this collection of fine trucks.......

Nice truck

Are those just tips or the GM exhaust?

They are a dual Borla exhaust system.

I thought the tips had Chevrolet logos on them from my phone.

They look very similar as I had the Chevy tip on the factory exhaust but the Borla tips are welded on from the factory.

Thanks Tim. I used the McGaughys delux 4/6 kit ( kit # 34170 ) and it could not have gone smoother. I've used a couple of other kits on different trucks but this one really went in pretty easy. No miscellaneous parts, nothing left over, no surprises whatsoever. The 22's rub a little in the front but I'm not too worried about that right now.

I have considered putting the OEM wheels back on it with some low profile tires so there won't be any rubbing at all but right now I'm just enjoying it being lowered. Drives about 95% exactly the way it did before...... a little more firm in the front but that is to be expected. Still plush all around but seems like it's more of a "sport" ride now.

Sorry guys/gals, this is the last picture I will post of my truck. Just thought that I'd snap one while I was out in the wild and see what everyone thought. The next one I post will be of this one sitting beside something just a little more normal...

cool thanks looks great. I've always used belltech on my trucks but thinkin I'll get the same kit if they ever fix the vibration.

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
