Posted November 1, 2004

I have a 99 chevy extended cab 4x4 with the low horse power low torque 5.3L. I have regeared it and it actually runs great until I overload it with a trailer that weighs almost 9,000 pounds. I have a 7 inch lift and currently run 35 inch tires on it. I am contemplating putting some 33's on it cuz I need some help when pulling up steep hills. I am curious if doing this will even be noticeable. Thanks

  I am guessing that is good relatively speaking given that its probably a popular vacation spot and that usually means a captive market. Right now we are sitting at 1.73 a liter for regular and that would have ethanol in it as we don't have such a thing as no ethanol regular fuel it seems, and diesel at 1.80 a liter, priced in Canadian Pesos ......

  Hot air is constantly blowing through the drivers side floor vents, even with the climate control system off. The amount of hot air flow varies with speed. Ideas? It's SUPER annoying lol, especially on 100 degree days! 2012 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE

  This is exactly what everyone here claims they want, so we’ll see if it comes to be. Skeptical but for $25 I’ll take a flyer…
