No, no damage. I have some picture of my back yard, but they arent to good. I need to teach my sister how to use my digital camera.

 

My mom parked her car under the tree in front of my truck. Woke up that morning with half the tree on her car. The 2 inchs of ice protected the car, so it didnt get hurt :sigh:  We hate the pos she drives and were hoping it would get totaled out so she could get a new suburban

Dig, I moved the truck just in time. I backed it up to the end of the street and by the time I got back to my driveway and big branch fell where the bed of the truck was(its the one in the second picture that landed where my truck is parked). Now, It would have done some serious damage. I should have taken a picture of it, but I wasnt thinking of that. I was thinking I was lucky to get the truck out of the way in time.

 

Jp, its a Olympus D490. Its a pretty good camera. I dont know why the truck stands out like that. I never did before. Maybe its the new computer, we bought 2 days or so before the storm.

Paul,

Glad to see you made it through the storm ok...what a mess, eh??! I ended up working 42 hrs straight at the fire dept. (first on scene of the Mickey D's fire in Blue Springs last Thursday, if you happened to hear about that) and then have spent the last few days going around picking brush at my family's homes....so needless to say I haven't had much time to check in on here. Hope everyone is doing well, both in KC and out of the area.

I am sure that the tree huggers came by to try to talk you into taping it back together so it will recover in the spring?  And PETA is suing you for not using a hair dryer to melt the ice before it collapsed so the bird nest would be safe?

    • Correct.  2019-2020 are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.   The recall engines 2021-2024 are serviced with 12740076.     What the difference is between the two, I'm not sure, but 2019-2020 only show 19420611 as the replacement engine p/n.  
    • Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.  
    • Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
    • you might read through the info on gmupfitter.com for your truck, to find a good power source.
    • Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally.
