city country I don't care it's a good looking setup. And I really am not a fan of white but that looks sweet.

So then it’s the first, it doesn’t work with your tastes in style. Which is fine because I didn’t build it for you so everyone has a right to there opinion on what looks good. Just don’t say “the look doesn’t work in the country”, just say “I like less  aesthetically pleasing vehicles” I totally understand that I got a couple guys that work for me that love to run into shit with their trucks for new scrapes and dents, strap light bars everywhere and go throw mud at each other in empty fields bro’n out. They don’t ride so hot or see much attention from the opposite sex but to each their own! Cheers 

 

Side note: since you can obviously build a substantial truck and have no problems affording a vast array of modifications yet would never so much as be seen driving my truck please share a photo of you full build driver so I can see where I went wrong.

Ok. With your tire wheel set up would you go up  a old logging road maybe gravel maybe not two or three miles into the woods to a tree stand ? Would you head to the wood line going to cut fire wood ? Why would I want to head to a remote boat ramp in North Carolina pulling my 50k bass boat throwing mud and rocks all over it ? Would you hook up a trailer to the rock quarry for a couple tons of gravel maybe going a mile on a gravel road to get loaded. In my area when it snows they may cover some area's in gravel hows the body panels going to look after back and for for a few days ? What does the opposite sex have to do with my truck. Odd statement. I'm thinking work mainly in my truck your wanting to impress the opposite sex ?

You are correct there are definitely things that people do with trucks in life that I probably wouldn’t use this truck as a first choice for but that’s not necessarily because of the wheel and tire set up. Can it do it physically yes it can. The entire property behind my shop is all loose gravel and that’s where all our storage is and yah I got chips, I pull vehicles out of all types of fields and hillside on trailers all the time. Drop and grab your bass boat no problem. And yes it gets dirty, and muddy and it’s got rock chips and blemishes but then she sure does clean up nice in the end. And that’s what I was referring to with the opposite sex comment, it’s nice to be able to work hard and still turn a ladies head when you’ve cleaned up nice. It more of a reference to the trucks that can’t be cleaned up because they’re so beat. And honestly I’m not even knocking those truck because the guys that drive’m love’m.

Regardless I understand it’s not your style of pickup and that is fine as can be. I just want to see the level, time & money that you’re building with your own personal truck that makes you feel country strong.

Would you want to maybe not, could you? 100% and with the fox setup it would handle it with ease.

Rest of the truck please. I like all kinds of builds from cut up bush truck to this. Personally I think it's Bad A** & and actually more conservative than some of the high dollar, mall-crawler, disco trucks that literally can't do anything. Color is unique and looks good with white Dispells the myth that 22"s can't off road. Rock crawl and thrash - no, off road with a little caution - all day.

 

If I want to seriously off road it's not in a street truck. rather be on a high performance bike, quad, sxs, or buggy.

Hey my friend I’m glad your into it! I said it in another post I believe I get a 50/50 reaction with this truck. Half the people that see it are like hey that ain’t half bad looking and the other half are like what the hell was he thinking. I know it’s a little outside the norm but so am I and I do this stuff for a living so it’s to be expected. haha If you’re interested I posted a couple pictures of the lift components in the 2014+ Suspension Lifts & a few over all pics Post Pics of Your 2014+ Thread but here’s a better look at the candy powder coat in the sun if you like that kind of thing. Thanks for look’n

Not really but I’m not perfect...? and honestly if you find it offensive, just flag it and let a moderator remove it. My apologies if my feeble attempt at humor bothered anyone. Wasn’t directed at anyone as an attack on their character.

    • not all plugs will be used.  gm uses more generic harnesses that support most/all options, and if your truck doesn't have a specfiic option, the plug won't be used (commonly will have a dummy insert in the plug , or it'll be taped up, but some may just be left as is).  But it's sldo possible some p.o. has installed the wrong/cheaper parts that aren't correct for your vehicle...
    • First off, I'm not trying to just get easy advice/fixes for the issues I've noticed so far.  I'll be combing through the site via searches and such, and if past experiences are any indication, should find what I need.  For the sake of conversation, though, I figured I'd post the handful of things I've noticed in the 12 hours since buying my 2010 SLE CCSB.     Indicator lights: Airbag and TPMS.  The tire pressures aren't reading for any of the wheels, so I'm pretty certain the sensors were either removed, are damaged, or are otherwise inoperable.  I used to mount and balance tires 25 years ago but am pretty much ignorant when it comes to TPMS.  My 2006 didn't have the sensors and this might be the fourth vehicle I've owned that does.     Radio: Rear speakers aren't working.  I removed the driver's side rear door panel and checked the speaker and wiring.  I also removed the sill and b-pillar covers to check the wiring.  A few minutes of Google Fu showed that this is potentially a head unit issue.    Switches: Power mirrors don't turn left/right.  I ordered replacement driver's door switches that should arrive tomorrow.  The windows and locks work but it was only about $20 for all of them.  The driver's side rear window switch lets the window down but won't put it back up.  I think the passenger rear doesn't work at all.  In the coming days/weeks, I'll break out my multimeter to check all of that.   Unknown wiring harness: There's a box attached to the front driver's side of the engine compartment, right where the second battery shelf is located.  There are three plugs, one of which looks like it fits a standard headlight-style bulb (9007 or similar).  It doesn't look like it's plugged into anything.  I'll do some digging and if I don't see anything elsewhere on the site, post some pictures here.   Unknown plugs on brake booster: There are at least two female plugs on the brake booster that aren't being used.  I think it might be a replacement/aftermarket, so maybe those are used for a different application, as there don't seem to be any unplugged harnesses and no indicator lights are on.   Little squeaks when turning: Sounds almost like a bushing around the bed of the truck.  I'll have to pay close attention as I get more familiar with the truck.   Clunk on acceleration: possibly the infamous drivetrain clunk.  My 2006 had it and I'm just not familiar enough with this truck yet to fully grasp what it is.   Anyway, my apologies for the vague and all over the place post.  This truck is new to me, and it's been four years since I drove my 2006.  With 200k miles, I know I'll need to learn this truck quickly to avoid having any major issues, despite being confident it's got much more life to it.  My 2006 had nearly 320k on it when I parked it (nearly 300k of which I put on the truck), and it was still drivable then, though I suspected the head gasket might have blown.  I'd hoped to have that truck back by now, but it's gone forever, as I detailed in my reintroduction thread.  
    • I always drive in Sport mode. With more driving, I am finding the initial response when accelerating is much quicker now🖕 Lou
    • Is it an optical illusion in the pic or is the truck really squatting that much horribly?
