Not great pictures but here it is had to reply to three topics I had started regarding this truck ha ha ha. Rides nice and the lack of road noise is amazing!

I like the looks of those.

I think it's a pretty good look. They set in close to the truck. The Iron Cross Stealth looks similar.

Those are nice too. Wish they were 6 inch wide, which is why I favor yours.

 

Your truck is sick looking. Well done.

I just noticed this item on Amazon for $255.98 - what the hell. If you can verify they're sending you a set with the correct part # why not ? (and make sure the mounting hardware and shipping is included)

I know there are lots of pics, but I thought I'd throw mine in too. Got my '14 LTZ Z71 a couple of weeks ago. Front windows tinted to 15%, RC 2.5 leveling kit (front only- left off rear blocks), put 275/70 18 Toyo AT2's on stock rims, Line-X, and Bakflip G2 on. I like how it turned out so far. Still showing over 18.5-19.3 mpg's on computer. Smooth ride, quiet ride. Any other ideas?

Very nice! I like chrome which is just right on your truck.

I have the same setup as you except with Nitto Terra Grapplers 275/70 18. My mpg dropped to around 15.5. What gears do you have?

I have the 3.42 gears. The other thing is the weight of the tires. The toyo at2's in 275/70/18 is 53 pounds and the Nitto trails in same size is 66 pounds. One of the reasons I went with the toyo, that and the toyo's are warranties to 50k miles and the Nitto have nothing. The ride stiffened up slightly, as expected with going to 10 ply, but they are quiet, smooth, and look pretty good.

You might consider getting some decent shocks and a rear anti-sway bar, makes a huge difference.

      Is the 6.2L L87 in a 2026 Sierra 1500 ok?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      What meaningful corrections were done to fix the "machining errors?"   I bet nothing, because the 6.2 is soon to be obsolete. Why would GM implement any fix let alone an "expensive one?"   Until someone can provide any convincing information that GM did ANYTHING to correct the engines - the 6.2 is no for me.    Which means keeping the 2016 Denali longer until the next generation (6.6?) proves itself.

      If my father took a Sunday off. We did the Sunday drive. Usually stopping at a Geno’s for dinner that we eat in the car. Six of us with my little sister up front. It was always a Buick growing up. In New Jersey you couldn’t get lost. Not like Texas.

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I suppose I am Atlas. It can always be worse, eh?   I had a friend once that rolled one payment into another until he was paying the price of Benz for a 10 year old back marker. Wouldn't be often you start a new payment the month following your old one.

      I still enjoy the drive   Some people fish when they retire; some golf. I drive. We've lived in the same general area now for twenty eight years and I'm still finding at least monthly some sweet quite little road to explore. When I tell the Mrs. I'm heading out for coffee she knows that could be a five hour event. Often she even goes along.    I like finding new rural routes used mainly by the locals that start nowhere in particular and end the same way. Many in the area of that type are narrow paved and twisty, hilly and run through field and timber. Often along creeks or wetlands. Unfarmable areas of great natural beauty.    After years of this type of exploration they start to fit together. One ending a mile or so from another and you start threading together a new path from a unfamiliar place to a new adventure. Sometimes to a little town of under five hundred that used to be something before the Interstate or some railroad or US highway bled the life out of it that has a small dinner with the greatest slice of pie you've eaten since grandma made her last. A little village museum or library or even a town square park with grand old oak, walnut and Osage orange trees to sit under while you sip you gas station coffee and chat up some locals.    Often they are full of stories about the main streets more interesting buildings and the who's who of the area. Sometimes some hidden attraction or unseen history. Our area is full of old coal mines.     A younger self used to do this going cross country by motorcycle. Only a general area as a destination with no time to get there and no time to be back. Sitting at days end in a 10 unit off the main highway motel under a Sycamore tree yacking with the owner or his one semipermanent guest while I adjusted valves or the chain. Always a wave and a shout "Hey there stranger"!  It's how I came by my love of old Brit iron. There is no such things as a ten minute gas stop when your on a Enfield or a vintage Triumph. Same being true of old cars.    If you take the time to really look I've found everywhere is someplace interesting. Illinois or West Virginia. Different and yet the same.    People are in a more relaxed mood and will talk about anything and everything and if they like you there may be a cupp'a or a lemonade and a sandwich in it. 😉
