Hauled this precious cargo home for the first time from the NICU after 40 days!   Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk

I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

Found an hour of free time yesterday and installed GM - Illuminated Door Sills. Love the way they look! Of course, made a how to video. The box didn't come with instructions and tried searching he

What fender moldings are those? And did you have them painted?

Not sure what brand they are, they came with the truck new, and were already painted.

They look like Bushwacker O.E. style fender flares to me they come satin black and are paint ready.  realtruck.com has them for 330ish for all for corners. Should be part # 40956-02 they offer .75” of protection if you want a little more they make one called extend a flare that has the same look but offers 1.75” protection for about 20 more bucks.

Yesterday I finally installed the Rough Country switch assembly I’ve had sitting in the truck for 3 weeks. 11623d562e0094c26a24ccb302867a3b.jpgc5cfd5df10a41ea95086c86d4221f69e.jpg7968d880ede9de3344a61109f0e5b6e7.jpg
Hopefully this week I can mount the switches. But it’s a nice set up. It senses when the battery is at something like 13 volts and shuts all the switches off so you don’t kill the battery. I’m not sure the exact voltage but I remember it around there. I bought it for $200 from my local custom shop. (J&J customs in Southington CT). I’ll get a pic of it in the engine bay when it stops raining. It’s placed in that secondary battery spot. I have to secure it still.

Neat kit. Wish that the switched were numbered rather than just plastered with repeated branding.

Thanks, wife picked the color, and I'm glad she did, it has definitely grown on me for sure. 

Well...she did a great job and has me second guessing my choice of White, I don't know if GMC even sports that color?

I think they do, friend of mine wife's drives a GMC that is  the similar if not the very same color. it is Graphite Metallic. Looks great in the sun, different angles give it a slightly different color.

I will say that these do not offer hardly any protection and wish I had the larger size. I already have a few nicks down the sides from slinging small rocks.

Finally got to really test out the Eibach lift kit and Falken at3w’s in northern Wisconsin. The truck road awesome on the back roads. I tried pushing the truck a bit to see what it took to break the tires loose but they held firm. Hit some washboard ice that the truck floated over with ease!

      OCI, not when but why?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.

      What’s missing in all this is patience and investment in the future. Buy a 170K starter home. Ten years later sell it invest in a more expensive home. Eventually you’ll have a 600K home and pay starter home payments. Buy a starter car. Maintain it well. Save the payments after it’s payed for then buy an expensive car if you desire. Buy a tumbler make your own coffee, pack your lunch. Cook your own dinner. Most importantly take care of your car.

      People mislead themselves. Statistics are highly useful indicators.   Here's the tie-in to this thread. If an oil sample tests shows a wear indicator of 7 using cheaper ACDelco oil, and a wear indicator of 2 (lower = less wear) using a particular brand of Mobil oil, and wear has a linear relationship with engine lifespan, anyone could assume that Mobil is reducing wear by more than 50% (let's just say a 200% reduction for you red state people trying hard to do math) which leads to increasing engine life by 2x. Perhaps, in a vacuum, by itself, when dreamed by AI.   Yeah?! That's what the statistic is saying, isn't it?   No, it isn't. It didn't come out and say engine life is doubled. That's a very bad assumption, and a case of severe myopia by assuming something potentially untrue about the only data point in focus.   Average cost of a new car is 50k. You bet it is.   The median cost of a new car is more like 35k. Expensive cars are skewing the perception that "average" now means a $50k price of entry for a very average automobile. And that's not true. People who don't understand statistics twist the living heck out of them to mean all sorts of things they don't actually mean.   "Average" new car payment is $1000/month. Yep, it is. And in that number are all the $35k new car buyers who bring significant equity, and the $25k new car buyers who finance the car for a month just to get a rebate, and then pay it off. Know what isn't in that number? All the payments made by people who don't finance a car.   Picking one's own data point (don't have a car payment, never paid $50k for a new vehicle, my house cost $170k, I afforded a middle class lifestyle on $4.50/hr) is just a data point. Just like earning $25/hr in an area where the median home price is almost $1 Million is a data point. In fact, it's a lot of data points given that 80% of the US population lives in/around major cities. They're not idiots; the vast majority of them do it to make a living because that's where the big money is.   The highs have become higher, lows have become lower, and how your personal mileage varies is not truth for an entire country. At the same time you can't NOT acknowledge the data. While it doesn't paint YOUR personal picture, it certainly tints the reality that you also live in, as does your single data point.

      Poll: Does your truck have the rear window leak?

      By ShotgunZ71 · Posted

      Glad you had success with it. I did as well, but about 5-6 months later it returned. Tried again, same result. This was after the dealer made several attempts and never even got it to slow down.
