It kills a good 30 minutes reading all the BS they throw around, but it gets really funny as they all turn on each other. Pfft, who needs hybrids when you got gas guzzling trucks.

Man, I wish our trucks got the specs listed in the magazines like the prius' do...amazing they say one thing, get corrected, then try to say they didn't say it.

Whats that TBSS run wingnut?  I have heard of them doing mid to high 13's, is that right?

 

 

 

 

That about right. There are a couple of guys in the 12's with nothing more than a CAI and a tune...But that's rare...Most are mid to high 13's.

Would you want to go over a 100mph in a go cart with 4 bicycle tires?

 

 

 

 

 

hmmmmm, actually yes i would...LOL. That would be pretty cool.

This sort of reminds me of a story I heard about a guy who walks into an Auto parts store and says to the clerk "I need a gas cap for a Yugo" The Clerk replies "Sounds like a good trade"!

 

Want a really fast car? Electric has the possibility to be alot faster than gas. An electric motor at each wheel would be devestatingly fast. The motors are instant on and up to rpm almost instant. The problem arrises with range. These things are dead after a 1/4 mile and need recharge. Check out this site

Electric! Cool! I never thought of that! How long do they make extention cords? I could probably hold a good 2000 feet of it in my bed! :)

    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
    • New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended? 
    • So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.  
    • Hey everyone, I recently had an issue with my 07 2500HD GMT900. My DRL’s stay on at all times. Right front turn and right mirror turn signal indicator stay on solid at all times. By “at all times” I mean the only way to make them go off is disconnecting the battery. I tore the headlight assemblies out, tried disconnecting the harnesses to eliminate bad wiring at the harness, I unplugged the headlight switch, no change and the mirror turn signal still stayed on. My first thoughts were : Bad bulb and/or socket somewhere, under hood fuse panel bad, bcm bad, tail light or trailer wiring problem, or some random short to power in the harness.  Possibly a bad ground but unlikely. I had a big clue in the fuse panel, it had a burnt smell. I started pulling every fuse that had to do with DRL or right turn/park lamp. Nothing made the right directional turn off but pulling the DRL2 fuse made the DRL’s go out.  After studying wiring diagrams, I found that both problems had that fuse panel in common, the bcm also controls both problems but knowing the fuse panel had a burnt smell I removed and disassembled the fuse panel and found a little corrosion on the printed circuit board.  I ordered a new fuse panel from Amazon for like $260. When it arrived I installed it, and put everything back together, the problem was fixed. I figured the fuse panel needed to be replaced anyway so that was a logical place to start. Hopefully this story helps someone in the future. Regretfully I didn’t scan for codes before I did everything.
    • That stinks. I’m sitting on the side of the road right now with the same issue. Never had an issue before taking it in for the ground strap recall. Now I’m outside of warranty and they’ll probably want $200 just to diagnose what they already “fixed”.
