Hello - Brand new to this forum. Looking forward to interesting reading and learning.

 

Here’s a picture of our 2016 3500 HD Dually. We name all of our vehicles. We call him Thor.

 

Have a great day!

Here’s why we call him Thor... :)

Where did you get that flag I like it. Is It a decal? Hope that’s not Thor’s current weather that would make me want to move it’s like -4F here!

Thanks! I took a picture of the Kid Rock SIlverado to my local guys, very talented guys. Auto Trim DESIGN in Neenah Wisconsin. They replicated the flag design and made it on printed vinyl.

 

We worked on the coloring for about a month to make it like a reflection. AT about 60 degrees off center it starts to disappear. 

 

And no sir - that is last summer’s weather, to be sure. It’s like -4 here in Wisconsin too!

Well I feel better knowing I’m not suffering in the cold alone. 

              They did a great job it looks awesome. I would love something like that on my midnight edition Silverado.

2017 All Terrain HD. My first pickup ever, and I love it. Pulled a travel trailer for 7 Years with a Yukon xl Denali. Night and day towing. 

Only thing I added was the Magnum headache rack. Love it.

Removed lower valance, leveled, and tires.

 

Well done!

 

Tire size 305/55/20's or 35x12.5x20's?

all of that was already done to it.
they are 295/60’s. if they weren’t brand spanking new i would go 35x12.50

I'm intrigued...

 

I want an SLE with a tow package, preferred equipment group, Bose, and carpet delete. Leather would be nice, but not sure I want to spend the $$. 

 

Love your color. I think your pic made me decide on Blue vs. Red!

Missed this one lol.  Alright 2 months late here but whatever lol.  The truck was a fleet order for a small company that either folded or decided not to take it or whatever.  So it's a Stone Blue Metallic SLE Z71 6 liter with dual full power heated cloth buckets, flow through console and wireless charging.  Has Bose with the sub in the console, power pedals, homelink, remote start, power rear slider.  Then it gets weirder..... truck has manual climate control, not digital dual zone like you would expect.  The truck does not have fog lights even as a higher trimmed SLE.  It also has no back up sensors in the bumper but does have a rear camera.  It also has the factory spray in liner, under rail LED lights in the bed and the factory fifth wheel prep pack with the plastic covered holes in the box...... but was downgraded tow rating wise to 9700 lbs maximum with 3.73 gears.  Came originally with the 18's I can't stand so I swapped to the grey background 20's.

 

My biggest complaint is remembering to set the climate control when I get out of it at night if it's somewhere outside.  It will turn on the heated seats when it's cold automatically but just blows whatever temp air wherever you left it lol.  Been more than once where after 20 minutes of run time the windshield is still frozen because I forgot to set it to heat and defrost lol.  The gearing is being fixed with 4.56 and I don't really care about foglights.  I like it... my biggest thing was a console equipped truck with bose and cloth... this fit the bill.

Would there be any size difference?

    • 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.  
    • 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?
