Maybe Plasti dip the chevy emblem on the rims black.   I did mine several months ago, still looks like I did it yesterday. Would work with the L nuts.

Added led's for the cargo lights and reverse lights last night. Happy with the cargo one's they look great and help. Really haven't had a chance to use the reverse one's , they look good when i unlock the truck but i don't think they are

Any better. Cheap ebay stuff 5244275b89a4688ae830c42a77eb2b86.jpge1486ce27d4c2f430a5c0096656e7889.jpg

For some reason i think im getting way better mpg idk , i know 4 sure tomorrow on my way to work... as for the lights there a lot whiter the the one's that come with the truck... and they are a lot better driving at night so far. Come spring time I'm going to put anzo Headlights in with Hids.

Were you able to check mpg, k&n vs stock, and tell a diff?

Idk really. I think the AC may be better. But the K@N is awesome you've to just clean it ever 50,000. I really don't know tho, i drive fast never use the cruise. This is since my last oil change fa550d6704600e21f9d091bfc95f00cf.jpg

I've had it four eight months today [emoji4]
And not 1 problem besides the dealer putting 6 qt of oil in it on a oil change. .. thank god the truck told me with in 10 miles. It was low... ive change my oil at 900 miles 4000. Had them do it at 11,000 17,000 22,000. They still owe me two more cause the one they f up on... in all i love this truck so much. Sad to think ill have 100,000 miles before it's 3 years old... i need a company van/chevy truck again ASAP

So you like the Sylvania ZXE's? I read reviews that the bulb life is short. I want LED's but i'm not gonna pull the trigger yet. How much did those set you back, if you don't mind?

There better than the OEM for sure. They where like 60 at autozone i think.

I didn't know they had a short life. I'm saving for new headlights ,hopefully by summer time.

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      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.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      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.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      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.

      cam upgrade in CA

      By davester · Posted

      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.

      Possible lifter tick after DOD delete

      By davester · Posted

      yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
