Judging from the rust, that's impact damage that has spread and has been rusting out the roof. Something chipped the paint right at the windshield edge where the heavy rust is and its just been spreading.
So when you put the key in and turn it on, do you have anything at all? Radio? Lights? Or when you key it on its dead? Or is everything working and it won't crank?
2026 3500HD. Mostly empty. Grocery getter. What tire pressure are you running for 37x12.50x20.
I have 37x12.50R20 Toyo Open Country RT pro and been running around 55 lbs front and rear and it's too much. Tires are wearing more in the middle. Toyo says 45 front and 50 rear. Chalk test and it's still too much. I lowered it to 40 front 44 rear see what happens.
With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.
Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece.
