Took Black Betty to get a complimentary hand wash with deionized water (wow what a difference) from the guy that did my ceramic coating. He also put a maintenance coat of Glassparancy on the glass. All free of charge. 

This guy runs a top notch outfit.

Just added a heated steering wheel to my

2014 Silverado LT crew cab It literally was a plug and play I didn’t have to add no wires ??? Just swapped the clock spring with a heated one and plug was hot. Took about a good hour as I had to wait  alil while for the battery to drain

Been thinking of doing the same to my 2015 LT.

It’s actually pretty easy just make sure u have a pair of ring pliers, got this at autozone 13$ not the best but they do the job. Probably wanna remove your cluster before anything as I accidentally crack the lens on my cluster taking the airbag out, main reason I’m upgrading to the Denali cluster ?

Cracked it on "accident" huh?? LOL I'll have to remember that, maybe I can get a new cluster out of the deal too. Would make it easier to convince my wife for sure... HAHAHA

Lmmfao yeah it was easier to convince her that I needed another one, plus I got it at a really good deal.

Nice wheel/tire combo, truck looks pretty sweet, been thinking about trading mine for some chrome wheels. Would go better with my chrome bumpers. I want to color match the grill and headlight bezels too.

What's your wheel, tire, lift setup?  Looks good.

    • 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.
