2 Qs:

 

1) Should I (and others) be nervous that you're selling this? Changing careers?

2) How in the world do you only have 39K miles on that thing? Now you got me thinking I should sell my 2015 (with 81K). :0)

 

 

bought my 17 this summer with 27k on it. 

the low mileage trucks are out there...just have to be patient. 

although the market is nuts right now. I could make like 8k if i sold it right now but i like it too much lol

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

Did my spark plugs at 88K miles, which I would say is WELL worth doing. Also a transfer case flush after work in my bay. Can't express how much I love my lift at work... worth its weight in gold b2515d76643c8dd6563c744632223f87.jpg20c3dc859c65a856510021ca76783f26.jpg

On a minor note.....I installed the interlocking Chevy floor mats.....really like them......was tempted to buy Husky but chose these first because of the Bowtie on them.

 

Also installed the Bullet antenna from Ronin.

 

Finally, have a driver side assist handle waiting to be installed.

I’d also look at the CST 4.5” lift, super high quality and yes I OffRoad a lot with zero issues. You can use your favorite shocks too, mine are CST coil overs up front, CST piggyback in rear which if you OffRoad frequent I’d highly recommend adjustable front coil overs. Rears are good with just about any, heck, you can even use Bilstein shocks too, they give a lifetime warranty.
Back to the lift, they’re all pretty good just as long as they don’t widen your track with or turning radius which BDS and other will do unless specified. I’ve had my CST 4.5” for almost 3 years and absolutely LOVE it with Zero complaints.

I can always add that later if I need to I have a airlift 1000 on it now with the flip kit, the shop is going to use 2" air bag extenders for it with the lift i can put 5~40 psi in those bags if I need to haul something heavy, there good for up to 2100lbs

actually don't know what bags they are exactly, it's a wireless one system with bag's the bags might be a variation  of the 1000 they attach to the frame and the leaf springs, they look kind of like the ride control bags, I can control them with a app on my phone via bluetooth.

Picked up a black LTZ grille today and plan to install tomorrow.  Been looking for one of these at a reasonable price and finally found this never used one for under $200.  I already had black but the honeycomb is such a pain in the a-s to clean/dry and the LTZ grilles look cooler imo.

Changed transmission fluid and filter today at 56,000 miles. Fluid was definitely not as red as the new fluid. There was very little on the magnet. Also added a drain plug to the pan. Used the ratchet strap trick to pull the exhaust down enough to get the pan out. Pulling 5 qts out through the dipstick/fill tube first made it way less of a mess than dropping the pan. 
 

I also replaced the transfer case fluid. Had the typical fines on the magnet.

Old fluid vs new Valvoline Dexron VI. Can’t imagine waiting until 100k mi to change fluid as GM suggests.

Got it done.  It does have a small group of scuffs on the top center.  Not really noticeable to anyone but me.  Anyone try polishing a gloss black grill to get rid of scratches?

      Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra.

      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.
