finally got around to installing the Airaid MIT tube with the k&n drop in. Little loud under load, but sounds good.

Installed the Chrome Skid Plate today. It took some time, but I would rather have did it myself instead of the $300+ my Chevy Dealership quoted me just for install ( parts not included). But it turned out great, and it completes the front end.

Debadged the rear, thinking of doing the "Sierra" on the side but haven't decided, such a pain in the ass I'll wait either way lol

What product did you use to get the letters off and what tool?

Dropped it off at dealer. My vacuum pump is dead and that seatbelt recall had to be done, plus fixing a clunk that came from the front suspension.

 

I put around 8,000 miles on the truck over the summer, so I guess stuff like this was expected.

What seatbelt recall?

40% front/5% rear/5% brow ceramic 3M tint, Weathertech floor mats all around, Weatherguard low profile aluminum toolbox. Toying with the idea of a level kit, new wheels/tires, and the Borla S-type catback. Pretty happy with it as is to be honest and don't really want to screw with the gas mileage or comfort, but I do really like the look of a leveled truck with at least slightly larger wheels/tires. Wouldn't mind a Whipple supercharger either...

Removed my front lower valance (air dam) and last week got new Michelin LTX AT2 275/60/20's after getting a nail in the side wall of one of my stock Goodyears.

Front Lower Valance Removed 03

A little something I been playing with. Was going to replace the chrome bars with the body color ones and leave the chrome inserts but I am kinda liking the way it looks. I got some plans for the headlights coming up soon.

If you like it then keep it. If it was me I'd paint match the grille and keep the inserts chrome. Think that look good.

I may give it a try this weekend. The chrome and body color parts are just clipped in by a billion clips so they can be interchanged with a little work. I made a mockup of it before I got the grille.

    • 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.
    • Hoooooooly smokes, batman!    
    • 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. 😉
