headlights that work? lol

 

 

I'm trying to show the difference in fog lights on/off not so much the headlights. The stock headlight output is great on the silverados though. I had a hell of a time with my sierra, upgrades and money and mods to just get decent output...

 

The picture doesn't do justice to the output and increase of coverage the fog lights have, again, they finally got it right from the factory.

Looks great! What level and tire size do you have?

Thanks man! Rough Country 2" front leveling kit and BFG KO2 275/70R17

Awesome. This is basically all I want to do with mine. Level and get some new tires. I think I'm going to go with 285/65's on the stock 18's.

 

Here's mine so far:

New member that has just found this website. Lots of stuff here to check out.

 

New work truck to replace old work truck. Got the rubber floor in this one and using husky X-act contour floor mats and they do pretty good for not moving around.

 

Looking to add Lund rock rails and Roll N Lock A series top.

I'm the same way. Level and a little bit bigger tires to keep the simple and clean look. I was going to go with 285/65s but decided to get 275/70s because they were cheaper and taller. How do you like your exhaust? I have been thinking about changing mine but don't want anything too loud.

I love the exhaust. I built the whole thing for ~$400 for all stainless from the cat back. It's pretty loud, and does have some drone, but I like it a lot.

 

Man. I think I may go with 275's. I'm just not sure.

That's not a bad price at all I might have to check into it.

 

From your pics it looks like you have a double cab. I had a '14 GMC double cab that I put a 2inch level and 275/70s on it. With a 2 inch level it still had a little rake to the front so if you want it to sit level I would suggest a 2.5 inch level.

I see. I was hoping to go a little wider than 275's, but that extra height would be nice. My dad has 285's on his F350 and they look awesome. I guess I kinda doubt I'd be missing the .57" inch difference as opposed to having a little more sidewall height. I think for my level I'm either going to go with the Bilstein 5100s (~2" lift) or a set of the Rancho Quick Lifts (~2"-2.5"). I'm leaning towards the Ranchos because they'll be so much easier to install.

Here's a pic of my truck currently, painted bumpers and wheels coming soon

    • If we actually used any significant amount of that source in the USA then I'd agree but we don't. We've had that discussion before. We drill and pump more than we use. Thing is, we sell. We export. Gas and Crude. It's more profitable so any shortage here is self inflicted and LEGAL.    I worked a gas plant that has multiple fuel sources available and I worked in the furnace and boiler plant in that facility. I'd had days we swapped fuel types four times in a twelve hour shift which isn't done on supply but on margin. Two of the fuel sources are internally generated. Tail gas and DAK, both of which are sold as well a consumed. We always had more than we needed to run the process but we chose the fuel that produced the best margin not bought at the cheapest price always. A good bit of math to that and back in the time that was done on a slide rule.     I worked the Shale Oil Semiworks of Chevron Research and CONOCO Research in Salt Lake City. That process never went into production although it was very successful. Why? Did we lack oil bearing shale? Nope. Price of crude never made the margins work. That was in the late 70's early 80's. Remember history? What was happening then was a reaction to that situation. It didn't drive it. If so then it's easy. This isn't a supply and demand thing. This is a profit and margin thing and AI rules that now.    In no refining situation that I was ever in would a bomb hitting a well anywhere in the world 'instantly' interrupt or even distress the supply. Most plants have more than a months worth of crude in the tank field and more in pumping stations. That yo-yo could play out over days, weeks and maybe months and have zero impact on plant operations. How many times has this been off and on in the last few months? These people and not stupid. These plants measure down time in hundreds of thousands of dollars per day. They are not sucking fumes or waiting on the next truckload with baited breath. Besides, as I noted, they are for the most part 'vertically integrated'. They own it from the dirt is sits in to the delivery rack and sometimes to the pump. It has a HUGE shock absorber built in. When production suffers, refining wins and when refining is winning exploration is killing. The rest of that crap in the news is a 'news cycle'. Government dipping in to reserves? Oil is stealing their milk money. There's a reason Chevron abandon Venezuela infrastructure and it had nothing to do with security of US citizens. Nationals run those plants. it has to do with MARGINS disappearing to corruption. They are in no hurry to return. Is there supply there? Oh yea. More than enough to offset what is bought in the middle east. Just isn't ???? Profitable.    We have supply. There are places in Illinois you can drive a pipe into the ground and run your homes natural gas furnace on it.    A refinery fire will gum up the supply works but not a localized war where the market is using a limited supply from. Now Europe, that's something other....
    • $4.00 a gallon here now.   Diesel nearly $5.00 again.
    • If we're talking futures, yes, it's speculation.   The spot price of a delivered barrel is elevated now compared to before the conflict. And that is related more to current supply/demand.
    • SPECULATION on the wars effect raised prices. AI is maximizing the profit. Refining is vertically integrated. 
    • It's the Middle East conflict that raised prices, not AI. But nice distraction.
