You Rebel you... [emoji16]


They gave me close to $21k on my 2014 GMC with 105k... Chevy and Toyota couldn’t even come close
So easy decision.

Like the James Dean flick, I’m a rebel without a cause!

I have a double cab but I had plenty left over. I bought 24”x48”. This is the rear of mine.

Man that looks good.  I appreciate the info.  The panels on my rear doors are a little longer.  I will do some measuring before ordering.

I also just wrapped the top of the cup holder with 3M 1080 matte silver. I had the gloss sterling silver to match the dash but the glare was unbearable.

Picked up one of these little guys and I haven’t installed it in my truck yet seeing as it’s kind of torn apart at the moment but one of my good truck buddies put one in his last month and holy crap what a difference. I guess I never even realized how bad the lag is in throttle response until you get this thing in. At top setting he can damn near break the tires loose just by touching the gas! Lol And for $275 yes please hahaC18E60BD-6254-45B9-A008-374AADACAD82.jpeg.b5ed65980484ac475900ad6b9a43aef5.jpeg

I appreciate it. Looks like I'll be ordering one.

Btw, in the pick you see, I’ve got mine facing downward, it would be much brighter if it was tilted higher.

Bought mine about a month ago and love it. I don't think I would be able to tolerate going back to driving without the added sensitivity now..

Santa was good to me & the truck this year.  Got somethings to install when I get some time.

I ended up buying one as a Christmas present for myself. Once I get it installed I'll post some pics of how it looks in a Silverado grill. I'm sure I'll have to adjust the angle depending on how the light output is.

I had problems with mine cutting out anytime i turned mine up. I’m running a JL HD 600/4 and 750//1 on a stock alternator and battery. About 4 months ago I unplugged the regulated voltage control and have not had any issues at all since then. I no longer have the fluctuating voltage, just a constant 14.
Well I went on a 2-1/2 hour ride with it disconnected and looks like i boiled the battery leaving it disconnected. Heads [emoji121]0f2e1ac58bfe1c567a6a78f09e97b270.jpg

Battery was probably going bad already then, normally that shouldn't happen

I had it tested a few months back but yeah who knows. Got a xs d3100 today and am trying to rig it under the back seat. I hear xs has under the hood heat issues, so thats a no go.

Well, it’s been a while since I’ve been on here. Just busy with life, house projects and work. The truck usually gets put on the back burner in the fall/winter. My wife wanted to surprise me with something For Christmas and she reached out to Phil Gamboa (HarnessDr)and he got with Chris White (WAMS), and they made this possible.  It’s like hearing a broken record, but their knowledge, support and customer support is what makes them miles ahead of the competition.

I had the IO5 radio and upgraded to the IO6 navigation. Installation was simple too. The 14/15 models will need the newer 16+ USB ports. One inside my console, and one up under the screen on the frontof my console. I mounted my GPS antennae up under the dash by the windshield. This is absolutely amazing. I missed having the GPS in my old truck with an aftermarket deck. The GPS and CarPlay are exactly what I wanted. PGamboa on here and https://harnessdr.com, and and GTPprix over at https://www.whiteautoandmedia.com are incredible at what they can do! If anyone has to swap out their USB hubs on the console, I would highly recommend the $2 pick set at harbor freight to get behind the hub to release the locking tabs. Lol. 

Any non GM truck person wouldn’t think twice about this upgrade, but it feels brand new to me again. I love how it will read my text messages for me without having to look at my phone.

Did my first oil change since I have owned the truck. About 5600 miles and the DIC said 25% life remaining. The oil looked awful. I filled the little bottle from the Blackstone Labs kit. I’ll send that in this week.

I’m using Mobil1 full synthetic and Wix filters because Mobil1 served me well over the past 19 years in my previous truck.

Yup, Did that the 2nd week I had the truck. Love it! Looks much cleaner. I didn’t do my license plate lights tho. That’s a bit much for me. Haha.

    • It wouldn’t have happened if the government hadn’t mandated outrageous fuel mileage standards. It does very little for the consumer. It adds cost. Back during Covid there was a chip shortage. They gave a rebate for your truck if it didn’t have the chip to turn on cylinder deactivation. It was 50$ because at best you may see 1/2 a mile increase per gallon. Splitting hairs each fuel mileage trick wasn’t mandated. The government doesn’t do the engineering work and say use this until it’s already in use and they like it. The fuel mileage was mandated. And those add ons the results. There’s a mandate and they are the results.
    • It was never mandated.  Ever.    Automakers were incentivized to install it by getting CAFE credits to help with their vehicle fleet fuel economy scores.  They were being handed money/CAFE credits to install it.  Which is NOT a mandate.       The current admin removed the incentives that were behind them installing it.       
    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
    • My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.
