I think my truck looks great and its stock. This isn't a modified specific forum or off roading forum per say....just GM trucks in general.

My truck is stock, except for the changes that make me happy! People here are proud of their trucks...stock or custom...We love GM trucks! Post a pic of yours

If you look at quite a few trucks on this site, they are 'newer' and I'm sure the mods will come in time. I personally have not done much to my truck because I like it the way it came from the factory, don't want to void the factory warranty, and I have a car that takes the majority of my 'toy fund' :cheers: .

If I payed well over $20k for something, you can be damn sure I'm showing it off.

 

 

Ok I lied.....

 

 

If I payed over $4k for something I'm showing it off.

 

You gotta be proud of your wheels man.

If you have a problem with stock trucks than wht are you here. Everybody has there own preference in the modification of there truck. Some peoples trucks look stock but are by no means stock. so don't make assumptions. and dont let your mockingbird mouth outrun your hummingbird ass.

At least their trucks are running.

Did you get your truck running (right) yet?

 

You put yourself on the spot here, so like some have already said, let's see some pics of your truck.

 

But then again, maybe we don't want to see pics of modded trucks.

Jeez, if I wanted to see that, I could just search the net and find them (and I wouldn't have to wait 'til Sunday). :cheers:

This site is for the "GM truck enthusiast." That means old, new, stock, hot rod, and modified, slammed, lifted, etc. :crackup: I like looking at pics of trucks, even stockers, sometimes it's cool to see what some people's trucks came optioned out with. Also, what about the brand new NBS? Don't want to see any pics of those trucks? Stock or not?

 

A GM truck is just that, a GM truck.

 

:cheers:

Your first mistake in this post was this:

I think the majority of the people on this site are showing off stock trucks.

When people (like me) get their first (or another) vehicle, it is almost always factory/stock.

 

Second mistake was this:

Who really wants to look at bone stock trucks with bigger tires?

Some times some of us want bigger tires! Especially if you are an off-roader or you are in the country. Big tires can help in certain situations, then yet again, it is just the driver's wants

 

if i wanted to see that i could drive around my hometown on a sunday

So could I!

 

A person like myself would much rather prefer to Show off rather than Mouth off. I would do my mouthing off in concert with my pictures.

 

I'm not trying to be mean here, but your words certainly defined you as a person who is 'all talk and no show'.

 

Sorry everyone, but I couldn't stay away and not say a word.

:cheers: Moest people here work hard to pay for what they drive and they're like me and proud as hell to show it off. So like it say's above let's see your rig.

    • First off use it in the way you’re more comfortable. In working in off road situations most of my life I used 4WD low range very little. In most cases when equipped I used auto 4WD. If I wanted maximum control going up and down very steep terrain  I used low range. Especially if I was driving a diesel. Same with very rutted terrain. In very muddy or snowy conditions I wanted momentum so high range worked well for that. With gravel ramps with limited traction I would try high range first. I would want smooth even increasing speed if I was fighting traction. Low range could give you too much to the wheels breaking traction trying to move. 
    • Having owned 4wd vehicle since the 1970s I find there are varying opinions on how to use 4wd, every owner is an expert in their minds.  IMO, 4LO is the appropriate gear and what I would use,  You have to feather the gas to avoid spinning tires and the lower the gear the better chance.  But like I said you will find those that think their method is best.  I live near a boat launch.  Yesterday there was a new Ford Maverick pulling out a pontoon boat almost 2x its size, they had no problems and they don't have a LO range.   True story. One winter day not long ago I was coming out of small town post office and there was a F150 4wd parked in front and was stuck foot deep snow ruts. I knew the lady so I asked her to put it in 4wd (wondering why in the middle of a 2-day snow storm she wasn't).  Her reply surprised me, "my husband" (the expert) told me not use that because it uses too much gas. She finally got unstuck spinning in 2wd which likely used more gas than not.  
    • Your tire pressure issue may just be batteries, you can reset them using tge Ing switch (I think) and the owner's  manual. ChatGTP will b e a faster, better help than Google.
    • The thinking is that starting out in a higher gear makes it easier to avoid applying excessive torque when pressing the gas pedal. In a modern 4wd truck with 4 low and a limited slip or locking rear end, I would use 4 low and try to crawl up the ramp. Sometimes if they are too slippery, you have to back up to let the boat have some bouyancy, and then accelerate briskly to get some momentum to help you pull the through the slippery parts. 
    • I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.
