Thanks my man, I'm leaving the chrome wheels for now. I'll probably end up going black when I mess the suspension and a few other things but that won't be til after Summer. Who knows my mind may change by then lol.

 

Btw, love you're tire setup! Jealous. lol

I was just thinking the exact opposite. ...that pic sealed the deal to me. Black it out with that grille.

 

Looks good.

If you're referring to mine, they are black already. Came from the factory like that. But yes, I agree they look better blacked out on my truck.

 

Looked chrome in the photos. Looks good. Edited by ahahnu

Truck looks really good. What level/tires are you running?

 

I took the front air dam off my AT but I plan on levelling it in the future and I may put it back on. Such difficult decisions haha

Thanks. It's got a 2.25 Pro Comp level with 2 inch blocks in the rear. Tires are 305/55/20 on a +12 offset, no rub.

 

I'll take the air dam off once it warms up to see how it looks. I don't mind it at all...but some of the pictures that I've seen with it off convince me otherwise. So true..such first world problems lol.

Truck looks great! I'm also in the Edmonton area. I recently pulled my lower air dam off, but I'm not really sold on it. I think I'm going to trim it down and see how it looks.

 

With valence:

I like with valence better, I think the truck was designed with the valence in mind and really helps the overall styling and continuity of the truck.

I understand why some people remove them though as they do hinder attack angles.

I agree that it looks more "complete" with it... It just annoys me looking at it from this angle:

Kinda reminds me of this...

Trimmed down seems like a Win-Win to me:

Haha, yeah I could see how that would get annoying. In GM's defense they designed it with the factory ride height in mind. Since you are leveld/3" lift, it allows more light to get under it and exaggerate its design.

 

When you are bumming it on stock ride height like me, its less obvious.

      Vehicle Payments

      By KARNUT · Posted

      This is interesting. My quote tagged here is different from my original quote. After I’m driving them longer. That isn’t me. I don’t talk that way. I definitely wouldn’t express myself that way. Interesting.

      What have you done to your K2 today?

      By UrbanRage · Posted

      I have the same running boards on my truck and I do agree they are bulky. I also find myself stepping over them when getting in and out of the truck. Besides providing protection to the rocker panels, they aren't very useful.  I will be replacing them soon with the Amp Powersteps.

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.
