Well so far I've had all the windows tinted, removed the muffler and put on a nice shiny tip, and basilisks maintenance. I switched it over to AMSOIL 0w-20 right away and have GM rear wheel liners on order they should be here this week. 

 

Future plans are to get rid of the nasty steel wheels that are starting to rust quit a bit on the lip and under the centre caps. I'll get those K02's off after the summer because they're WAY TO LOUD; the constant droning is driving me bonkers! I'll also be installing my dash cam (front and rear) and will probably add an aftermarket bluetooth kit for the factory head-unit later in the summer. ? Oh and the plastic drop in bed-liner needs to go and it will be replaced with line-x. 

Sounds like you have good list of "Day 2" mods already lined up.

 

Post pics, and ask questions, or provide answers as you go.

2” rough country leveling kit (spacer) 20x10 wheels -15 offset and 33x12.5 tires aturro mt rubs at full lock 

Looks great !  Turned out very nice.  I have a 2018 as well w/ultimate package but with 22” wheels.  Truck is white diamond frost coat.  I love the way the truck  looks now, but wished there were more choices for leveling kits. I really don’t wanna mess with the magnetic ride system.  Truck rides very nice now, but 22” wheels make you feel it on crappy roads.  Was it difficult to install on your truck ?  Magnetic ride create problems?

 

 Thanks

I went with rough country kit because it was kinda cheap like 60 and it came with a bracket that moved the sensor up. It rode very good with the leveling kit installed like stock then I put mud tires on and the ride is good but not like it was ...install was easy lol giant pry bar on the spring slide the spacer in and done. With a 2 inch leveling kit there still is some rake maybe 2 1/4 - 2 1/2 spacer would make it truly level but I’m fine with the way it is. Next is tune ??

Your truck looks awesome! I think I have the same hood. Mine has two recesses or indentations. Yours looks like some sort of scoops were mounted into the indentations, but you said it's vinyl. How about a closer picture?

That's a crazy optical illusion! In your first photo there looks like hood scoop openings, but in these pictures you can see it's just vinyl laid in the recess. Very cool!

Did a 3.5/6 drop and changed to a set of RST wheels. Thought this would be a good excuse to repost my truck.

That looks so good man. Are you planning on keeping the steps?

Thanks. I’m going to drive it for a while like this. Let the chrome get pitted up some more and when I’m ready to change it up. Black out it, change the wheels, and remove the steps.

    • 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?
