If talking trash on a forum was a job you guys would be loaded.... But I am glad I got some likes on my posts that means some of you liked my truck

It reads more like having fun to me than trash talk. I strive for the Grandpa look which usually earns me a few jabs on this forum! You are proud of your truck and undoubtedly receive compliments from your peer group!

Removed lower front valance and installed a Flowmaster super 10 series, removed resonator and tacked the valve open. d910f03e7de6f454bfa18941f1d037ab.jpgf71009bfef4bc9474747bf55621f644f.jpg

looks good to me bro! A lot better than a lot of the auto zone specials running around here.

Thinking off the lower valance removal myself as I have caught it just once on a curb, I had previously parked at the same spot in my 13 Sierra which used to clear it no problems!

Yeah, before I got my wheels, I got a flat at work and my valance got hungry on the stupid parking stop thing and ripped off. I've got a leveling kit coming but figured I take it off anyways.

I agree, your truck, your money, do what you want! At the same time, don't post pics of your truck and expect everybody to drool over them. If you decide to be an attention whore then expect some negative with the positive, otherwise, don't waste your time. There will always be somebody who thinks your truck is a turd!

Got my tint done Thursday.

 

Put on the driver's side assist handle today.

 

Also pulled off the dash bezel and added two Panavise mounts. And pulled the screen out and put a screen protector on while I was in there. Which requires taking 13 gold T15 screws out of the back of the screen assembly - I kept thinking surely they don't all need to come out!!

 

If you decide to take the screen out of its frame for any reason, pay extra attention to the long pins when fitting it back up with the frame piece. The 8 pins has specific holes they need to go into and could easily be bent (see the last few pics)

    • 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.
    • 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. 
    • 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.    
    • apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.
    • yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
