I know, i know.  I just can't stop adding these things.  They're great.  This allows us to put "avatars" or personal images under your name.  The one prob, until you go to your profile and select "noavatar" it gives you this wierd picture.  If everyone could please do that so I don't have to do that to 40 accounts that would be nice.  Or... you could select personal avatar and then have the url of the pic you want to use.  Right now it is displaying the images as 32 x 32 but it is suppose to be 64 x 64, so use 64 x 64 images so when i fix it they won't be messed up.  Hope you enjoy this feature.  Sorry for all the X boxed images for the next few days.

SiiL T, I went to change my profile but you must of all ready fixed mine?  Thanks I would have done it.  Sometimes I'm a little slow getting up to speed on some of this new stuff.  Keep the changes coming we or should I say I will do my best to keep up.  The more you do the easier it will be for you to grow this board to have lots of post every day.  Keep up the good work!! Go GM Trucks

D****T TOM!I was looking for a bowtie like that to use.Where did you get that from?

 

I got it from Chevrolet.com, in the "contact us" section.  It was black and white and I colorized it with paitshop pro.  You can have it It you like.  I'll e-mail it to you.  I decided to use the gold one on their main page.  It looks like the one on my truck.

Alright, I found a graphic that I want to use for this feature, but I don't know how to get it.  It is on the GMC website, and I can highlight it and copy it, but can't do anything with it then.  I have microsoft paint, and it won't allow me to paste this graphic into there.  Is there some other way to get this graphic, or do I need a different program to paste it into?  

If I need a different program to put this graphic into, would somebody be able to do this for me?

Its real easy.

All you have to do is find the pic you want. Right click with your mouse and select "Properties". A small window will open and highlight and copy the URL of the picture you would like to use.

Paste that url into the box for the pic in your profile.

Hope this helps.

Well, so far it looks like people like the new feature.  I am glad cause it was a real pain in the aaaa---butt.  I didn't edit any of your pics, maybe they just fixed themselves.  I think all you had to do was resave your profile info.  How do you all like my pics?  Am i "mysterious" enough?

Alright that was pretty easy, but now I feel like an idiot for not knowing you could do that.    :)

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Jsdirt · Posted

      I was around and remember that era very well, so I'm calling b/s on that statement. If they were that bad no police department or taxi company would've bought a single one ... but they were used in both services (and fire) for DECADES. They were bulletproof and proven. Even the early 21st century ones weren't too bad! The early models were legendary.   Mine is proof, but people like atlas are blinded by agenda and refuse to believe facts right before their very eyes.   Even decades after they were built, a new generation started driving them, posting all their builds and shenanigans on Grandmarq.net and Crownvic.net. The failures would show up then, since they all were deep past 100k-150k miles by that point, and younger drivers tend to be a little aggressive, especially with vehicles than can lay a one-tire fire for as long as you hold your foot in it. They've more than proven themselves over the decades.   The only thing that'll really take them out is road salt. The bodies and sheet metal were garbage. A victim of the cheapout FoMoCo and GM have been partaking in before then, and since.   Today it's the stuff that counts - the undercarriage that rots away first!    GMs Caprice was no slouch either. Reliable as a stone ax - the opposite of what they build now.

      Let me know how your vehicles do in 10 years. You don't know ******, kid. 😂    There's a reason that Panther platform was used as police, fire, and taxi service for DECADES ... long before you were born, apparently.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      If your connector also has a big lever to get the connector on and off, you don't want to force the lever either way, as it becomes a bigger problem if you bust the lever or the mechanism it works.

      Disconnecting Battery

      By davester · Posted

      It's just useful to disconnect the battery to prevent odd shorting out when unplugging/plugging stuff together.  I also  touch the two cable ends together (after disonnecting) to drain the small amount of stored battery energy in various modules.   I believe the main system where you need to be more concerned with, so you need to do the above and then wait some time, iss when you are working on the air bag system, to prevent inadvertent firing of the air bags.   The in-cab switches are just that, plain switches, it's generally not a problem to swap them in/out.  For my '12, I'll get an error message on the dash if I power up the truck w them unplugged, but that's it (power up= turn the ignition on).   The ITBC located above the spare tire is a computer that manages the trailer brake system.  That is probably more important to have the battery disconnected.  It does have to be programmed to the truck, either before or after it's installed, for it to work.  For my '12, I had a very hard time reinstalling the main connector to it (IDK if yours is the same or not), it turned out the silicon seal was jamming up, preventing it from going on all the way.  I finally got it fully installed by lubing the seal with a bit of dielectric grease, then it slid on and latched in place easily.

      Remote Start Noise 2024 2500 HD Gas

      By BCGM · Posted

      JR ! I just got the truck back from the Dealership today . The technician did a cold remote start on the truck this morning and it made the noise . It was determined that it was a starter issue and replaced it under warranty . Of course   it did not make the sound after a new starter was put in because the truck was not cold . We will we see what happens tomorrow morning when I start the truck cold  . Keep tuned !   Oh I found a video on YouTube of a cold start and it did the same thing your truck and mine do , I will see if I can find it and post it up
