looks good man. Sometimes i regret not buying a GMC.

Lol don't man. I saw the picture of the all white Chevy Silverado this guy posted a page or two back and its a beauty. Couldn't go wrong with either one.

Perfect imo, if I were to change anything at all, it would be the wheels. They look great as it is, just might slap some black ones on there. That's how black and white should definitely look!

Thanks Im really liking it. I need to get some better pics. I lowered the rear to make it level, clayed, polished, and sealed the paint using adams products. I cant believe how much caked on crap came off from the clay bar.

I say the same thing about a Silverado.

Agreed....the grass is always greener.

 

Finally got to wash my truck and get some of the winter off it.

What lightbar do you have behind the grille?

It's a 31.5" curved single row bar by Nightrider led

 

So far so good, only thing I didn't like was the harness seemed cheap and the toggle switch for on/off was really bad. I have the rigid duallies in my fogs so I wired those to the stock foglight switch and took the nice red Rigid rocker style switch and used that for the lightbar on/off instead

Got the truck washed today, beautiful weather out in Dallas today so decided to snap some pictures. Showing off the new exhaust and new GM black sidesteps.

Looks good ! Is that the corsa exhaust you have on there? I went the cheap way and just chopped the muffler off, but maybe one day will get the corsa sport

 

Really like the exhaust tip but can't find a tip in that style that fits the 6.2 (3" I think)

Thanks man! Well its an actual Corsa tip. Its a 3" Inlet with twin 4" outlets. I went with the cheaper route as well and used an 18" muffler and had the muffler shop remove the resonator and valve as well. From what I can remember the 6.2 uses a 3.5" exhaust but I'm not sure if it carries all the way out to the tip.

 

This is a link to the one I purchased.

Gorgeous picture and truck! What wheels/tires are you running? Really hate myself for spending a bit more and getting the All Terrain now

Awesome!

 

I think I'm going to go with a Rigid Curved 30" double row behind my AT grille. How much clearance do you have between the lightbar and the back of the grille?

Well my friend, these fancy wheels are 17" GM steel rims.

 

And as if that couldn't get any better, the tires are Yokohama Ice Guard IG51V.

 

:D

 

Mine is an All-Terrain and I have the stock 20" rims for spring/summer/fall.

Not a whole lot, about half an inch near the center of the bar, 3/4" on the sides. There is about half an inch gap behind the bar to the rad support beam or whatever that is, so you do half a bit to play with. All depends how/what you use to mount the bar I guess

hahaha, from the picture they look like some Methods or similar type wheel. Very nice! Wildest weather my truck sees is heavy rain here in the DFW.

    • 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?
