awesome pics! we took an RV last year up that way and spent 3 days at Glenwood Springs Resort right there off the river...Rafted the CO river...such a blast I could live there.

the drive thru the canyon was amazing!

too bad i didnt' have my truck at the time or i would have done the same as you...

 

Oh yea, its beautiful up there. We ended up going to the hot springs in Glenwood on the 2nd day. Next time I go I def want to take an RV.

We are going at the beginning of August. We were gonna rent a cabin somewhere west of Denver and use that as our basecamp. Then head anywhere from there. We looked at towing an rv but that was gonna be 2 to 3k for the rental not including my 6.2 fuel usage there and back on top of everything else for 5 people for 2 weeks from Houston.

I went with a 6" BDS lift. Fox coils up front, new leafs in the rear.

Fuel wheels, Toyo Open country ATII. Anzo head lights, Morimoto HIDs for the low beam.

Truck has a black 4x4 stickers on it now, was originally de-badged, but I was really just waiting for the black stickers.

Bullet Liner spray in bed liner. AMP research power running boards with LED lighting kit. Tinted windows all around.

 

I think I'm done, but likely exhaust is what is actually next. Noob here, trying to figure out how to post pics.. . .

Got my porter cable 7424xp DA polisher late last week along with pads, polish etc, I also got nanoskin autocrub clay alternative setup a few weeks back. I am beyond thrilled with the results.

You definitely do not hear allot about this things around here. Hit it with some Iron-X to remove those iron deposits and if you haven't done so already. Truck looks great man. I like to use AMMO Mud on all the black vinyl exterior pieces too. Keeps them black and moisturized.

That's what I thought too. We will take off the front this weekend. I was really working on the grill and lights this past week and havne't looked at the bumper yet. My paint shop did not suggest painting a chrome bumper so I am having them wrapped..

 

it sound like your paint shop is scared to paint.. I have never.. and I mean never had paint come off any of my chrome painted front bumper or front chrome grills over the years.. it's all about the prep.. I had a 2004 silverado and I painted the front chrome bumper to match.. 6 years of driving killing all kinds of bugs insects and even hitting a blue jay. Not one chip or paint coming off.. just normal wear and tear.

Na I dont think he was scared at all... it was just a suggestion not to do it cause chipping "could" happen and in instead of telling him to do it, I will give the work to my local vinyl shop instead. i probably was the scared one cause my luck it would chip! :thumbs:

    • 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?
