I have seen some threads for other colors trucks to post pics of their rides. The Black Thread is very popular with over 50 pages. Mahogany Metalic seems to be a very uncommon color for our trucks. I do not think I have seen another one here in Atlanta. Well, not in the 3 weeks since I bought mine.

 

The pics do not do this color of any justice. They do not show the red tint well. Makes it look more plain chocolate brown.

 

That being said, here are some pics of my Mahogany Metalic Sierra.

Guess only 2 of us on the forum. Just got it Friday and so far so good. Just wonder what it would look like without all the chrome...

Both Look Good.

 

Someone contacted me and asked if I wanted to buy color matched mirror and door handle covers. But I like the chrome. The paint is so dark, I think the chrome makes it pop.

 

And yes, we do seem to be the minority here. Heck, my dealership had dozens of Black, White, and Greys. This was the only Mahogeny Metallic at any dealership here in Atlanta.

Exactly the same situation when I bought mine...

You seem to have gotten my truck's twin.

 

Is that a premium plus package?

Yes Sir. Premium with Z71 and Trailering Package. Looks like our major difference are the wheels.

Yeah, I am posting on my iPad. So little easier to see. Old eyes need the bigger screen!

Yeah, mine has those shiny blinky blinky chrome wheels. Wouldn't have necessarily been my first choice in wheels, but still like them. My '07 Sierra had the brushed Aluminum wheels, and, like many others also indicated, they started flaking after a few winters. Clearly started where some ape obviously "missed" a lug nut with an air ratchet during a tire rotation.

 

Wife's ('08) Enclave has the chrome wheels, and hers look brand new to this day. Thus, I was more than cool with the chrome wheels.

 

I like yours tho.

 

Also have the Z71 and trailer package on mine...

I Googled it. Looks like Kodiak Sierra is a package offered in Canada. Makes sense since his profile says he is in Winnipeg.

Another difference on his truck. The headlights are different than ours. Looks like there is another bulb inside between the headlight lens and the grill. Wonder if that is another Canadian difference due to their DOT requirements compared to U.S. Requirements?

      Mangoal or FitcamX OEM Dashcam?

      By MANGOAL · Posted

      Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge.

      Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
