We should get Tim Eyman to run a “no front license plate” initative. That would mess up all the tolling they have set up in the state. Fun times.

 

When I got my new truck I ran it without plates till the very last day the temps expired. Loved running 520 and 405 “toll” lanes for free. I hate that they track us everywhere.

Oh, don't even get me going on the wonderful state we live in. I hope that his new initative for $30.00 tabs gets some traction after all of the Sound Transit BS that has been going on, this will be the 3rd year in a row that we have paid over $1400.00 in tabs for our two Chevy's. The first run back in the 90's did not last long, but it was a heck of a lot better than the current crap system. Do you use a Good to Go pass for the toll lanes? They don't track by your plates, but the pass on the windshield or the one that mounts on top of your front license plate, unless they have something new in place that I do not know about.

Yes I will certainly be voting for the $30 tabs.  Thankfully, I live 1 mile outside the RTA boundary so still only pay about $90 per car. If I lived in the RTA I would not have a 2018 Sierra but would still drive my 02 Suburban.  I use Good to Go for the 520 bridge, I registered my plates on Good to Go - gives me a discount and automatic billing. I am not putting a tracking box on my vehicle - so I stay out of out the millionarie tool lanes. Love this state - hate the government - and it is getting worse and worse.

Did not know you could just register the plates and not have the sticker/transponder on the windshield. I have both plates on file with my profile to mate with the passes. What kind of discount do you get?

Sorry, I think it only works for the bridges.  You can’t use the luxury toll lanes. I think the discount is time dependent. It’s on the Good to Go site.

First snow in a couple of years here in suburban Seattle - got 10 inches last night!  

Got up early to get some pictures in the dark.  (BTW, let me know if I am posting too much here...)

Out on Novelty Hill Road at 7am - it should be a mile long bumper to bumper traffic, I stopped the truck got out and took a picture.  Surprised that King County actually plowed this road. I think they have about 3 plows in the whole county.

Being from CA it looks kind of fun, but can see how salt and the cold could get annoying quickly

No salt in Washington, we use a spray (kind of like an eviromentaly friendly anti freeze) on the roads. It is a PITA to get off of your truck, and is a dirt magnet.

No garage? Cool picture of the wheel. Wife has a cousin that lives in that area. We have the family Christmas get together there every year.

    • Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.  
    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
    • I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!
