Any chance you are allowed to send a care package north of the border?

I can't say enough good things about Xpel. Had it installed on my 2016 AT (wish I'd done it on my 2014 AT) and have it on my 2019 AT4 and my wifes Rubicon. On the 2016 which was black it held up well for me for nearly 3 years in the Texas sun. Like others have said, worth every penny.

Has anyone else XPEL'D their trucks yet?

I have not.. and don't plan on doing so.  When I first saw this topic I was surprised people were Xpel'ing their trucks.  On my Grand Sport .. yes... but on a truck?

 

After thinking about this for a bit, and considering the prices trucks these days, I can see why guys are doing it. 

 

I still won't put it on my truck,  but Xpel is a great product and those that choose to go this route will be happy with the results.

My truck is way more likely to need paint protection than my sports car. I mean so long as you use your truck for truck things.

 

That and I think sticker on my AT4 was higher than most of the stingrays in the showroom haha.

Makes sense when you put it that way.....and yes, it's hard to believe a loaded Denali stickers for more than I paid for my grand sport...

I put the Ceramic Boost they sent me on my truck over the weekend.  Easy application and it looks great so far.

If you don't like scratches or swirl marks then PPF is the only way to go. Ceramic coatings will NOT stop scratches or rock chips. Congrats on the new truck by the way!

Thanks loving it. Ceramic will indeed reduce it and increase the gloss though correct? Or not worth having ceramic coating? I was quoted $1200 5 year for opti coat

I did this on my 17 and it was perfect when I traded it in. I’m doing the same on my 2020

I put expel on my 2019 a couple days after I drove off the lot. Always had great results from Expel. In my opinion it’s the best coating in the market. I had it on my 2017 Silverado Denali and when I traded it for my 2019 it still looked brand new and we get a lot of rock chips in west Texas!  I installed door handle guards, door edge, fenders, and grille on my latest.

Just a follow up i finally had the XPEL installed on my truck last week and it looks awesome! They put the new XPEL Ultimate Plus on, and it is a great film!

 

I topped mine up with a ceramic coat over the whole truck as well. Expensive but so worth it in the long run to keep the truck looking factory fresh with minimal effort from me!

      Cold start Miss, oil in cylinder

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle.    What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.

      Good information!  I didn't know about the dementia aspect and asked for a general for my second knee. I'd heard that recovery room time is usually shorter with a general.   The anesthesiologist talked me out of it and I had the spinal.  Inconvenience and/or discomfort is a small price to pay for reduced risk!

      Navigating senior years.

      This is for those over 70 years of age contemplating joint replacement surgery involving general anesthesia. Even some 55 yrs. ago when I took my pharmacology class the dangers of developing dementia in the elderly that had general anesthesia were beginning to be recognized. Over the years there has been some refinement in the cautionary warnings, avoid general anesthesia if possible if you've had close to 10 priors, especially over the age of 70 and/or a family history of dementia. I'm not including the twilight anesthesia induced by propofol often used in cytoscopies or colonscopies. Seriously think about seeing a neurologist and undergo cognitive testing before proceeding if any of those criteria apply to you. Spinal anesthesia may be an option in some cases. I'm in the above camp and although I could use a new right knee, I get fidgety according to a prior orthopedic surgeon when the bone saw spools up or maybe it was the smell of saw blade meeting bone, anyhow I may have one general anesthesia left in me which I will pocket for now and I'm choosing mind over mobility, anyway where did I leave my damn cane!
