Falken AT3Ws.  I have had several sets and they wear like iron.  They come with 18/32" tread on them where the Goodyear Wranglers that came factory on my 2024 High Country 2500HD only have 12/32".  No wonder they don't last.

If you don't need the aggressive look of say a Nitto Ridge Grappler or the like, there is no better highway all-season than the Michelin Defender LTX. Legendary for a good reason (OEM spec'd Ford Super Duty units notwithstanding). 33k out of stock isn't bad. All OEMs spec a lower quality tire even if it has the same name as the retail counterparts. Actual retail tires of the same name are always higher quality and better performing. Just be glad you didn't get stuck with the hot garbage that is the Firestone Transforce like I did.

My Trailrunners went just over 50k with about 30% towing and where quiet throughout their life. I replaced them with the same thing. I thought they where too expensive but can't argue with the performance and longevity. In auto repair business and not typically a fan of Goodyear products but these have proven to be a solid a/t .

I had the factory 18" Michellins on my 2024 2500, just swapped them out with 20" factory wheels and Nitto Recon grapplers. The Michellins were spinning on me in wet grass and the Nitto's just move the truck along.

      Gotta say the Silverado wins in the exterior looks department, in my opinion.

      Not sure about DFM tech but i know there's a stop/start deactivation button.

      I could be interested if they axed cylinder deactivation and at least have a button for stop start. I’m sure the HP numbers will be higher. I would want a longer warranty to help build confidence. I’m a less is more guy as I get older. A V-8 work truck model would be my choice. I know a few outfitters for custom additions I prefer.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      It's official. GMC pulled the covers off the next-gen 2027 Sierra 1500, and we got the first official look. Full breakdown here: https://www.gm-trucks.com/next-gen-2027-gmc-sierra-1500-v8-trim-changes/   The quick hits: SLE and SLT are dead. The new core retail trim is just called "Elevation". Two new V8s, a 5.7L and a 6.6L built with high-performance Corvette architecture roots. No horsepower or torque numbers yet. The 2.7 TurboMax finally ditches the old gearbox and gets the 10-speed automatic. AT4X moves to larger standard 35-inch tires with front and rear e-lockers, Multimatic DSSV dampers, and heavy-duty Jounce Control Dampers. Over 60 inches of combined display on Denali Ultimate and AT4X, complete with a motorized articulating center screen and an adaptive passenger screen. Seven simplified trims across the entire model line to clean up ordering confusion.   So let's get into it: New 5.7L and 6.6L gas V8s with custom active exhaust tuning and a Corvette connection. Is this the exact engine lineup half-ton traditionalists have been begging for? Purging the iconic SLE and SLT names after all these years to lean entirely on Elevation as the high-volume core. Bold move, or a mistake? That motorized articulating 16.3-inch screen that slides up to reveal a hidden dashboard vault. Awesome mechanical theater, or does it make you nervous about long-term durability? Physically lowering the headlamps in the front fascia to improve road courtesy and stop blinding oncoming traffic. Smart real-world engineering, or does it hurt the truck's aggressive stance? What trim are you putting your name down for on day one? Drop your first impressions below.

      Navigating senior years.

      My overnight hospital stay turned into five.  I developed a post operative fever and an erratic  heart rate.  A blood clot in the lungs was the culprit.  This is apparently a common post surgical complication and easily remedied.   I was the youngest in a four bed ward and a Doctor with a Geriatric specialization was in charge of my care.  All of the nurses were good and some were outstanding at dealing with old people.  It was very evident that my age triggered a different level of care!  My advice to any senior going for a hospital stay is to have a trusted family member advocate visible.  If not, you will still be well cared for, but you may discover that your voice  isn't as strong as it once was!
