looks good . do you have the part number for the new switch ???

 

This. I need a switch like this to wire up to some addition LED's I am putting on the front. If you pop off the trim section where the controls are the part number should be labeled on the back of the switch.

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.

Dash cams can work against you too however. In the event that you're at fault, you have to turn over the video.

 

I would like to get one anyways though. I think one that has an auto-on would be helpful for parking lot incidents when you're inside a store and come out to find someone backed into your car and left.

Don't say you have one if you're at fault. Snap that sd card in half

This would never occur to me, if I was at fault I'd have owned up to it without video. People like you are reason these cameras exist and have any use at all.

Got the cameras installed today. Only took about 2 hours start to finish. Hardest part was dropping the drivers side of the headliner to run the line to the rear camera.

I see you have out mounted on the rear slider window, or does it only appear that way? What model did you end up buying for the front and rear?

Several years ago I was involved in one of the earlier distracted driver (cell phone) accidents. Four vehicles were damaged and some injuries incurred. I was impressed with how well everybody behaved, took responsibility and helped one another. The cause was not easily evident except for the honesty of the driver causing the mishap. I can't express how much stress this took off an already horrible event and how much respect I had for this individual! I want you to know how much I appreciate people like you who have the guts to accept responsibility for when they are at fault!

Never been involved in something like that so I can only imagine. Ive gotten close to getting a camera a few times just havent yet, everytime I see a close call though on the road makes you think about needing it. I just think its common sense to own up to damage you cause. Ive only been involved in minor incidents really at fault and not.

Two different opposing opinions/opinions

 

Evidently one can not truly know what they would do in a theoretical situation.

I dont think you know what that means. Opposing opinions between two people is not cognitive dissonance.

 

Based on past experiences of not lying to get out of fault in a situation would be a pretty good predictor of not destroying your camera/card to get out of a future similar event.

I didn't use cognitive dissonance based on our to different options.

 

I know saying it's your fault is the "right" thing to do.

 

But

 

The consequences could/might be avoided.

 

"Cognitive dissonance."

 

Legally it's not your job to say who's fault it is, even if it was your fault. That's up to the insurance and the authority to rule the verdict.

Haha I guess that is basically the definition of it, Ill give you that.

 

I think morals trump legal responsibility but Ill leave the rest at that.

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
