Nice truck. I've been thinking about the 3.0. How do you like it?

So far I love it.  Power is really good.  Not the instant off the line power of the 6.2 that I had but over all very good.

 

Averaging 22.3 over the 230ish miles I have put on it.  Mix of city, country roads and highway (75-80) with a little bit of idle.  I have had a couple trips around 25 miles that were around 25-27mpg (mix with no highway and minimal stops) and another one that was 65 miles and was a mix of all driving (mostly highway and country road) and got 24 mpg.

Sorry about making contact with bambi.  Hopefully you get it fixed and back soon.

Yes but I am hoping that it is also "Other drivers see me red". 

 

I had my 2020 TB for 15 months and it was Black.  At least once a week I would have someone either pull out in front of, drift into my lane, etc.  Broad daylight or at night.  Some how I managed to avoid all of them.  One of them was a 18 wheeler that ignored the yield signs......  Several times I would have died if I hadn't avoided the crash.  I think the truck had a death wish.

IMy lifted truck is black and it's huge but I run with my foglights on during the day for that exact reason

There's a reason white is the #1 color for cars. It's obvious to see. Iirc, red is the most ticketed.

      TCM Tuning 6L80E

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      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.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉

      I gotta say, I'm enjoying your narration. The troubles you've been having are amusing as you describe them. It's good to see that you're finally getting some satisfaction out the old beast though.
