I took my Trailboss sticker off the first day I had it. One if those things that 10 years from now we will look back and say "remember when Chevy made a "Trailboss!?"

Yah I am not big into the name either. I am going to remove the tailgate badges and maybe hit the trail boss sticker. It looks good taken off on your truck.

“Trail Boss” is tame compared to some of the packages throughout the 70s and 80s. The “Gentleman Jim” has to be the worst...

I had a Big 10 back in the seventies, but I don't ever remember seeing the gentleman Jim. That's awful.

Looking at it today you'd say yea it was "gaudy" but, actually, it was an awesome truck back in 1975.  I remember my uncle having a new one.  Wish they would've been a short bed instead as I'm not a fan of the long bed.

My favorite was one my dad had. A 1970 C-10 CST. It had a tac dash, 402, posi, red and white and 3 on the tree. It was fast but on washboard dirt roads the back end would dance all over, coil springs I believe.

Mine arrived about a month ago.  Ordered in Oct, but had to wait for Chevy to start building the Crew Cab standard bed.  Traded a 2011 Silverado Ext Cab and this truck is built so much better its ridiculous.   I can see those coming from a 2016 or higher, not that impressed, but coming from a 2011 the difference is mind blowing.   Not pictured is the Bakflip X2 cover on the truck and removed the larger antenna for short stub.  No noticeable loss in radio reception.  Just fits in the garage.

This is good to hear.  I have a 2010 and keep hearing everyone complain about the interior.  When I test drove one comparing to the 2010 I was blown away.  How do you like the std bed.  This is what I am planning on ordering also.

It's great.  I had a standard bed on my old truck, so really couldn't see going to a short box even though side to side there was more volume.  Kids appreciate the upgrade to the crew cab too...it was getting a little tight in the old ext cab, now its like they are riding in a limo back there. (with air vents!)

Finally washed. As you can see I have no tire shine, ordered some from Amazon but the bottle exploded in the box. Should have the liners and tires nice and black tomorrow. ef69f39264c69d104d495d7e7d4a2f20.jpg

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.

      cam upgrade in CA

      By davester · Posted

      apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.

      Possible lifter tick after DOD delete

      By davester · Posted

      yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
