I work with mostly women and they all think my truck is black.   I would like to see one of these black trucks set up like mine. My GMT-900 was black and I decided to go with the Iridium Metallic

Well I finally took the dive and did some paint correcting from the dealer installed swirl marks. Clayed, two stage polish, sealed and waxed. Keeping a new truck clean is a second job; keeping a black

Ok I'll just get it out of the way what setup you got?

Thanks!

 

I'm running the 6" BDS lift with 35" Toyo RTs. Added the AMP steps, 500 watt RF sub and the fold-a-cover. Next I'd like to upgrade the lights to something brighter and throw a 30" or 20" Rigid Industries Midnight Edition E series light bar behind the grill. The factor LED lights aren't very bright in the 2014s.

Here's my 2016 Silverado Z71 LT. So far, I've added 5" iBoard Running boards, Type S Smart Off-Road Lights, Blacked out front & rear Bow-Ties..along with the stearing column & the Bow-Tie on the wheels, I've also added rear lights under the tailgate. My next projects will be adding DL3 mirrors (or tow), adding a 2" leveling kit from Tuff Country, and (I know my wife hopes) lastly putting 22" CK162s on.

How do you like the RT's? That's what I'm planning on getting when these tires are done. The 2014's don't have LED's except for the dlr's. I recommend the Morimoto HID and kit from TRS. Works great in the stock projectors and super bright. Also the Morimoto xb led fogs. You'll never complain about lighting again.

The RT's are great I have about 14k miles on them now and they're holding up well. I've ripped them in sand, snow, mud, dirt, rock, etc. and they still have lots of tread. I rotate them every 5k miles.

 

Thanks for the recommendation on the lights. I'll check them out. I thought it was LED projector based on my sticker. What does this mean then?

Will have to take this offline as it's a different thread. Must be referring to the LED strips that go around the projector.

Yes the LED is just the strips. 2014 and 15 only came with halogens and they are god awful. How's the noise on the highway from the RT's? I really don't feel like listening to tire drone if I can avoid it. Edited by novembervictor

It's noticeable compared to the stock tires but nothing like running MTs. It's hardly noticeable and any radio volume drowns the right out. If you're going 80+ with no radio, then you'll hear them. I don't mind it at all and had the same concern. That's why I went with these. More rugged than an AT but not as bad on sound and wear & tear as an MT.

Thanks! I'm running a Fabtech Gen II 6" w/ the stealth shocks, Toyo Open County MT 35x12.5x20 on 20x9 Fuel Wildcats

I had previously trimmed some of the lining in the wheel wells to fit 33x12.5's on a level w/ stock wheels, so no more was needed to accommodate the new set up.

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

      Have considered installing a DC to DC charger in your camper to replace your isolator?

      Gas fill door

      Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.

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

      By newdude · Posted

      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.

      Active Grille Delete

      By jaszr2 · Posted

      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.

      By jake111 · Posted

      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?
