I've got no experience on those but I had XenonDepot in my HD and loved them.  I ordered a set for my Colorado but they didn't fit the housings the way I wanted so I went with VLED Micro this time around.  I love those as well. 

 

I'm not one to have done any online selling (paypal or what have you) but I still have the XenonDepot new unused set, and I think the CANBUS  modules (I think will stop the stabilitrak from killing the lights intermittently).  If you are interested.  Less than retail.

On my 2017 Silverado, I wasn't impressed (like most) w/ the OEM bulbs. Went w/ a pair of LEDs, I honestly, don't think they made much difference other than the 'colour' of the headlights. The light 'down the road' seemed the same.

 

OK, lets go w/ a pair of HIDs (low beam). I ordered a pair from Xenon Depot & installed them last summer. Much better light down the road. Passenger side bulb went out just before Christmas. Not sure if it was the bulb or ballast. LEDs went back in. When I was telling my nephew about this, he said that's why he wasn't going to spend the money to go w/ HIDs on his Jeep TJ. 

 

Too bad Chev hadn't put more thought into the headlamps. I wonder how the 2 new lighting setups on the T1XX trucks will perform?

      Even tougher is the 5.0 / 302. That's what this one has.    https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   https://postimg.cc/4n3F3yzY   Just realized I had the airbox removed in the engine pic, lol.

      I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.

      Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.

      Bridgestone vs Goodyear tires?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires.
