I have thought about changing plugs, just haven't done it yet. How big of a job was it?

No issues....I wrote a piece for the easiest way possible with #8 cylinder.  Just take em out and put in AC Delco's and NO Anti Seize AT ALL!  16ft/LBS if memory serves me correct and should not take you more that 1HR

Just to update my thread. I am currently at 109850 miles and 2839 hours. Getting close to 110k. Could happen tomorrow or it could be another month or two with the way I have been driving it lately.

Bought my 2015 6.2 8 speed Feb. 2019 with 95,000. Now have 110,000 and change on it. Airaid MIT just installed otherwise stock. No big issues. Not really any little issues either. Tune and e85 coming soon.

I finally hit 110,000 miles as I turned on my road coming to the house. This also shows the lifetime MPG since I got the truck with 42400 miles on it. Roughly 67k miles and 23.7 MPG. I had the vacuum recall done on Friday and a check engine light came on Saturday while running around. I took the codes and cleared the light. Drove it around today and everything seems fine, no CEL.

23.7! How is that possible! I've never even seen 22 on a long highway trip. 

When I was driving it every day to work, it was a 41 mile run. About 15 miles on the interstate and about 25 through the country. In the last 1.5 years I have only driven the truck about 5k miles or so. The current tank of gas is averaging around 19 mpg. They are all around town miles anymore.

137,200 and counting. Condenser called it quits the middle of September, and the radiator leak is slowly growing. Have parts for those, currently he's in the shop for deer damage though. Going strong otherwise!

Now at 105,000 trouble free miles.... Given my stance on road salt I don't see Pepper leaving the nest for awhile.

My 2014 LT Z71 Crew Cab has 184k or so. The driver's plastic seat back is broke, and I will be replacing a failing starter this week. Thing rides like a Cadillac. I get the occasional small puff of smoke when I start it.

    • It was never mandated.  Ever.    Automakers were incentivized to install it by getting CAFE credits to help with their vehicle fleet fuel economy scores.  They were being handed money/CAFE credits to install it.  Which is NOT a mandate.       The current admin removed the incentives that were behind them installing it.       
    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
    • My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.    
    • I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w
