There's Somethin Women Like About a Pickup Man

Most women see men as having ego issues who have riced out/decked out vehicles. At least that is what I was told.

How is that a problem? Some of the most beautiful women in the world are with guys with the biggest egos in the world.

 

...I mean hypothetically, of course. ... I'm married and old.

I love seeing a nice looking girl driving a truck.

 

A few weeks ago I saw a smoking hot petite blonde in a miniskirt jump down from the driver's seat of a 6" lifted '07+ Silverado up the street from me.

 

I agree. It was probably her boyfriend's truck unfortunately. It's hard to get that lucky.

My wife was in the Tahoe one day and a Silverado pulled up next to her at the light. The guy revved up. She revved back. The guy backed off the line. :lol:

 

I guess the crackle from the Long Tube Headers scared him.

Once My Wife Seen My Lifted 84 Gmc With 39.5 I Knew I Had Her!! Haha.

You sure it wasn't the other way around?

The girl Im seeing saw my new truck and said "it doesn't sit as high as your other truck did". Damn, I guess I need to do something about that. My last truck just had a 2" level and tires a few sizes bigger than stock.

She's not a car/truck girl at all but even she noticed the height difference right away

I met my now wife about a month after I got my 2000 z71

I met my first wife when I had my 79 El Camino. Still got the same one...wife, that is.

My wife choosed me for what I have in my pants...

 

:dunno:

so long

My ex loved my truck but I also impressed her with a rental 2012 Chevy Impala one day when I took a "detour" to get around some places closed down that led to us having to drive down 7 miles of a nasty dirt road, and then driving the car thru some common area and onto the highway. The car held up well I did not get stuck, and she says the next car she is going to get is going to be a Chevy. Sure beats her crammed Corolla! I still have scars on my head from trying to get into and out of that thing.

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
