It’s a 7 passenger SUV with fairly good off-road credentials for a stock vehicle. In contrast, the Corvair’s only off-road ability was skidding off the road and killing people. Comparing the two is idiotic.

 

Agreed. I’ve seen the new Tahoe’s and they are gorgeous inside and out. Pictures don’t do them justification. Yes, it’s my opinion but just watch GM will sell a $h!t ton of these and stay large suv king.  
GM knows what they are doing people don’t buy these large suvs to drag race, go serious off roading.  They buy them as family haulers and weekend warriors. If GM didn’t make the Traverse I’d get one but I can save $25k on a premier traverse that fits my families needs.

I'll be up all night consoling Pepper her feels are so hurt.

Well, at least it will be easy to wrap your burly, hairy bear arms around her dainty little power plant of a heart.

Wow, this thread turned sour quick. Nothing like poking the bear (haha no pun intended) to have a little fun in good faith but some of these comments are cringe-worthy.

When I jointed this site I took note of the number of members it has and also how few contribute. I really wondered about that. That is until the first time I took a hit. What happens is I get PM 's from these guys that have been here for years that have posted zero times. We bounce a few comments that starts with an wish for my well and thanks for my contribution and ends in my inviting them to joint it. The universal reply has been:

 

Na, I see what happens to people that contribute here. I'll just lurk but don't them them drive you off. 

One I got yesterday told me he petitioned the admin to stop this thread.

What a sweet thing to do. 

 

Yea, coconut oil sounds right.

?

Grumpy provides comic relief and harmless satire.  And occasional useful info. I do, however,  wonder how he’d respond to the silent treatment from the rest of us? Just saying.

The T1 would look better if it had proper wheels and tires on it. 

 

The GMT-900 would look better if it was a little lower and got rid of the bed rails.

Never understood why someone would jack up a truck like that and then put huge rubber bands on the wheels. Saw one just like it and said the same thing to the wife a couple days ago while hauling tree limbs to the canyon.

My mechanic is 6'5" and I guess 260 ish. He puts the seat in the box :crackup:Funny to watch me get in after he's been in there. 

 

What are you hitting your knees on? I do it in the wife's Terrain and my Civic and know how painful that can be. 

So I did a side by side comparison between my 2016 and my 2019.  My knee will occasionally hit the bezel, just below the headlight switch and dimmer roller knob when I get in the 2016.  I measured 27 inches from the bezel to the rear of the door opening.  On my 2019, it's 29.5 inches from the bezel to the rear of the door opening.  Which explains why the 2016 feels like a much tighter fit when getting in.  And those extra 2.5 inches are why I have never hit my knee on the bezel of the 2019.   With the seat all the back, which is where mine always are, the 2019 is much more spacious and comfortable when getting in, getting out and when driving.

      Atlas,   Then following your logic we can't believe any story that the MSM produces? I mean it's documented they heavily donate to Democrat candidates. Vote Democrat in high percentages. Many MSM talents are married to Democrat politicians, Gov. employees. That goes for on-air and off, personalities and reporters. So they would all be biased and nothing they produce is to be believed in your mind?   Again the article simply was about ways AI can be used for pricing products. Nothing discounted current situations as a factor.    Again keep looking through your left/right lenses. I don't live my life that way.   And as a heads up this thread will be cleaned up again as much of this is off topic and is receiving

      So you're saying toss the baby out with the bathwater? @txab posted article was her take on how AI can be used to manipulate pricing as it already does and has been rebuked by the judiciasry in housing. How AI can be and is used to maximize refinery or even Amazon operations all of which are true but because she is who she is; that makes what she says about what is true, false? Is that something akin to Pre-justice aka prejudice?    Look, I'm first in line to approach all information with caution just because we live in a world where people like to lie about someone or something with such a straight face and in such volume that it makes digging to the truth wearisome. Meaning I understand the skepticisms but if I were to toss out everything a person is for a view they hold then my pool of people to draw wisdom from would be non-existent and I'd be forced to reinvent the wheel daily. Not practical.    "Be innocent as a dove but as cautious as a serpent."    Test each word. Every good lie is part truth or no one would believe it. Find the truth in it and reject what isn't.    On this one, AI is being used to do what has been done by hand for hundreds of years already but at such speed, the point of a computer, that it is more easily monetized. This one wasn't that hard a lift.    I wrote a few formulas in a Lotus 123 program decades ago, a series of linked Macros actually, that allowed a daily inventory to be turned into a running P&L and production plan. Something that took three departments a week to assemble now took the time it takes to input the 'daily changes' in inventory. Later that was ungraded to the more powerful Excel program an and integrated with bar code scanning, inventory to supply was done once per shift. It had a huge impact on production scheduling, Seamless interruption flexibility, inventory error reduction, raw materials cost effective utilization and scrap reduction. Huge improvement in the bottom line. I spent months on that and AI could have done it in minutes. So yes, it not only can be used, they would be foolish to not try. The legality, ethics and morality are not the domain of AI. Humans need to keep a reign on it.

      How to Tune 6L80 Silverado transmission

      By ballencd · Posted

      New to this forum.  Also looking to tune a 6L80 and trying to work out all the issues in my transmission swap.  I have a 6.2 diesel (1983) and have removed the TH-400 and about to put in a 6L80 with a TCM-2600 interface and don't have a clue what I doing after that.  Did you (Leatherneck/RAV3) get your slip resolved? I too hate to spend that kind of money on a tuner that hopefully I will not need too many times although from what steelerdude15 added about the HP Tuner being great for diagnostics would be a plus.  I am also from WNC but below you in Columbus.  Any helo would be greatly appreciated.
