So.... I am out tooling around yesterday trying to find something to get into. I go to a couple of gun shops, pawn shops, guitar store, tire store and then to my HORROR!!! I realize someone has stolen my Blackbear Performance decal off my back window. haha. I mean...really? What a dick move. So I have decided that Im going to have to challenge every truck I see that has one of these decals to weed out the imposter. Game on. lol

You do know that just adding the decal is worth 100 horsepower, takes 2 seconds off the 1/4 mile time, increases top speed to 200 MPH, and allows you to get up to 86 MPG! Now you know why they stole it.

These days?....Nothing new! Came out one day to find the Duster emblems pried off my fenders of my new car and screwdriver marks in its place......the emblems were missing off many other neighborhood vehicles as well. Days later neighbors observed the little ba$tard up the street riding his bicycle with loads of automotive emblems (including a Duster) glued to the bike frame.......police would do nothing without proof and the parents were morons who played stupid......until one day their Olds had all the emblems pried off and "custom" engraved pinstipes installed on all the panels. Never saw that little ba$tard riding a bike with those emblems or even riding a bike at all after that.

That sucks but the image I have in my head of the kid riding his bike with all those emblems is cracking me up...what a little turd. When I was younger the Mercedes and Cadillac ones were popular to steal...just never heard of a decal being stolen.

 

OP will be jumping in the passenger seat of anyone with a BBP sticker and be like "Nice sticker, now show me your 0-60!"

I called it an emblem......it was chrome plated plastic with the 3M stick on back........I replaced it with a Duster decal which has a tornado graphic which covered the scratches and wasn't worth stealing.

I wish they would have taken the dang Z71 stickers instead. Ive just been too lazy to take 'em off. I guess thats what I get for sticking a GM-Trucks decal on a new F150 last year when they first came out. Oh well... I might have to get myself a "TRUMP/NUGENT '16" decal as bait. haha

You didn't know all kids today are special.. you can't punish them. They are sensitive... they all get a trophy. I'm actually surprised to hear the kid was outside.. I didn't know they stop playing on all their electronic long enough to go outside.

Evel Knievel !!! My hero from the '70s. I wonder what Evel would think of this cupcake, safe place, Playstation Borg generation of today. Just thinking that this gen of babies will be taking care of me when I get old scares the shite out of me. When I get to where I can't take care of myself maybe I'll steal one of their Prius decals, stick it on my then hot rodded wheel chair and roll it into oncoming traffic. haha Put me outa misery. Damn entitled a@#holes.

Damn, what a ballsy move that was! They climbed up into your truck to peal off a sticker? I mean, it's not even going to restick worth a damn. At least I wouldn't think so.

 

Probably better you didn't catch the moron. You would've beat his azz then you would've been the one in trouble for violating his right to steal. I mean reclaim as his own.

      This doesn't look like a GM truck. Not needed on a HD truck

      It varies a ton around me. Some places are still at $5.00 or higher and others are way down into the $4's.   Offroad diesel was $4.02 at the one station I passed today.

      2027 Chevrolet Silverado: Official Discussion

      By Hdwrguy · Posted

      So after reading the reveal from Chevrolet, I kept asking myself...why did the trim levels change?   Here are the official ones:   Work Truck (WT): The quintessential fleet truck, built with durable, easy-to-clean interiors for commercial or utilitarian use. Custom: A stylish, road-oriented trim that adds a more refined appearance, standard dual exhaust, and modern exterior styling. Custom Trail Boss: An entry-level off-roader featuring a 2-inch factory suspension lift and 34-inch mud-terrain tires on a budget. Silverado: Serving as the new base consumer truck (replacing the previous LT trim), it comes standard with the Z71 off-road package when equipped with 4WD. Trail Boss: Steps up the off-road hardware with the 2-inch lift, 34-inch tires, monotube shocks, an exclusive off-road hood, and more premium interior options. ZR2: The flagship off-roader. It boasts 35-inch mud-terrain tires, Multimatic DSSV dampers, front and rear electronic lockers, forged carbon-fiber interior accents, and an available hardcore Bison Edition (co-developed with AEV). High Country: The pinnacle of luxury. It replaces bright chrome with modern satin chrome, 22-inch wheels, premium leather, real wood interior trim, a panoramic sunroof, and an exclusive front-passenger touchscreen. As others have stated, why would you want a Silverado - 'Silverado' - wth?? LT needs to remain!!!   Also, there will no longer be a dedicated Z71 model.  All 4x4 trucks will have the Z71 package. Carplay is also something that cannot be removed.  Hopefully it will remain.     I am excited about the 5.7L V8 (350 C.I.D.)  Old school Chevy power.  My only concern is whatever version of AFM/DFM cylinder deactivation.  Too bad that isn't an option a buyer can choose to have or not.   I will definitely be stopping by my local dealership when these trucks start showing up.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      The not as clean as one would assume theme with the new engine oil, that reminds me of comments over the years with mechanics not always being so on board with filling an oil filter, not from the center anyway due to that typically being the clean side of the filter, danger of some contaminant falling into the filter if not careful but the realization now that the oil may not be as pure as one had assumed it would surely be. Yes it would be possible to fill from the small holes but that means messing with something to prop open the anti drain back valve if the filter is so equipped and not damage that valve in the process. Me, I have hardly ever prefilled an engine oil filter however I have prefilled diesel fuel filters with a filter on a fuel bulk tank and for anyone that has messed with diesel engines with filters and units that have a limited or no way of priming them, putting on a dry filter is a bad day to say the least with those crappy systems. But anyway back to not so clean engine oil, indeed perhaps its not so bad after all that I have not made a practice of prefilling oil filters.    As Grumpy Bear commented on keeping things clean, that I really have to wonder what the typical practice is at a dealer or any other shop that changes engine oil, do they make sure to wipe or wash off the oil plug and certainly if it fell into some gunk or onto a dirty floor, or that they wiped the filter mounting flange and didn't go and use some dirty rag and end up adding dirt to the inside of the head of the filter mount. Or be careless in how they stored or handled the new filter and if they were bumping into items under the vehicle with the filter opening facing up and having dirt drop right into the filter and if so right into the threaded center that is on the clean side. The top side, did they clean away the built up gunk that may be around the filler before removing the cap or to be really careful at that point that something right close to the filler hole that was hidden under the caps flange won't fall into the engine. Or did they clean the funnel or was that just laying there covered in oil from the oil change before and dust kicked up from sweeping the floor stuck to the oil and now that will go running into the next persons engine due to just not cleaning the funnel as "they won't know anyway" attitude as that young guy is more worried about taking a break so he can go outside and smoke a joint. Just random points that came to mind when I think about what some hired personnel may do that the shop foreman has no idea of or perhaps the whole attitude of some shops may be "eh ... who cares, they will never know the difference anyway".
