Did some more towing. Probably around 8000lbs again. This time up the highway around Atlanta. Still able to get up and go even with the 5.3. Was able to cruise 80 without much struggling or obnoxious down shifting.

First paint correction and seal on the AT4 now that winter is over. This blue looks even better after a clay/polish/seal.

Ordered a Borla Touring exhaust - looking forward to a sound improvement, and hopefully no drone.  Got tired of this thing looking mean and sounding like a dishwasher.

You’ll love it. I have the GM Performance exhaust, which is the same system. Really adds some good feels when driving. Like you said, the exhaust matches the aggressive styling. 😎

This might be the prettiest truck I’ve ever seen. More pics?

Installed my catch can at 440 miles before intake and valves get nasty.

Did you do the dual valve?  Looks great, I've only read good things about the UPR products.

No, I always have run the single.  It connects inline between the driver side valve cover and intake port.  I suppose I'd catch more if I ran the dual, but I didn't want a spaghetti bowl of hoses running everywhere and I'm content with the performance of the single.  The intake on my 2017 was spotless when I had it off to install the blower so I'm convinced.

Good to know.  I'm looking at the single as well and wasn't sure if there was a large enough benefit to invest the extra capital into the dual valve.  Like you mentioned, I didn't want an extra line running across the top of the intake, its already cluttered as it is.

Installed my dashcam from my old Sierra finally. The new truck doesn't have a USB port in the glove box like my Sierra had, so I had to hardwire this one in. I used the heated steering wheel fuse, but need to find something that works when in Accessory also. The truck has to be running for the dashcam to have power, which means I have to have it running to download any video. It's a small inconvenience, but one I'd like to remedy.

Gorg. Your setup is awesome, bumper looks great, bed rack is sweet.. nice job all the way around. If I had to nit pick I’d say she’d look cleaner with the red GMC decals but what the hell do I know. Great truck!

Yeah, it looks great. What’s your set up. Tires, lift or level, etc. Sorry if you’ve already posted this information.

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Dave's Auto (custom engine builder) tear down of L8T

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.

      "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
