How many members do we have here from MO?

 

I'll start. I'm a new member and a new Chevy owner. Actually, the wife is driving the Chevy. It's a 2007 Trailblazer LT. We bought it yesterday at a used car lot with 4132 miles on it. This is the first Chevy either of us have had. Dare I say, I've always been a Ford guy? Sorry, sister-in-law works for Ford, so I've always liked the deals, but I got a great deal on this Chevy, so I went for it.

 

My first impression so far with this truck, it's NICE!! It's fully loaded and I gotta say, the OnStar thing is awesome! I don't feel near as worried about my wife going out of town with our kids! Ford really screwed up not doing something similar!!

 

We live at the Lake of the Ozarks near Osage Beach.

 

So who else is in MO?

My guess would be too few Missouri members...if you were from Texas that would be another story. But anyways, welcome!

Sheesh, 12 views and no replies? Either there are no Missouri members or this isn't a friendly type forum? Should I keep looking for a friendly forum or what?

Welcome to the group! :crackup: Glad to see a fellow Missourian post.

 

Where are you located at the LOZ? I have a house on the 36MM. I just bought a Cobalt 262 to keep my Triton TR186 company on the dock. Crazy weather. Snow on Sunday - 70 degrees on Wed. :crackup:

 

Overall this is a very friendly forum. There are a lot of knowledgeable people on this board. I think there are quite a few Missourian on here, they just don't post very much.

 

Glad you like your TB. :crackup:

I live in Jefferson City. Just got rid of my 01 pickup about a month ago for a car. Wife still has the crewcab pickup. Right now I am looking for a older chevy pickup to buy, just so I can have my playtoy

Should be a nice weekend. I'm down near the 26MM, kinda by Tan-Tar-A. Last thing I want is another boat! I got one and I'm sick of it. It's a Commercial Water Sports Aerial Pro 30. If you've never heard of one, it's the ParaSail operation out of Tan-Tar-A.

 

It's nice to meet some fellow Missourians. Thanks for the welcome.

Yea actually Sam Houston is the name of our major street. :) What can I say though. People tell me its because he came through this area that they called our town this. :) I've only been here 4 years so no biggie.

Hey I'm another one from MO. I live in southeast missouri near cape girardeau by the mighty mississippi river :lol: I'm glad the floods finally let up but then we feel earthquakes from illinois. I imagine soon the plague of locust or the waters running red will happen soon. :lol::lol:

They have internet in Missouri? I figured it would be stolen by the residents of East St Louis. :M16:

      Light Up the Trail From Above: 50" PRO for the Hummer EV

      By mandrautomotive · Posted

      Hey everyone,   For anyone looking at roof-mounted lighting for the Hummer EV, we wanted to share our M&R Automotive 50" PRO Roof Light Bar for the 2022+ GMC Hummer EV.   The curved 50" bar sits close to the windshield rather than sticking way up above the roofline. The mounting position is designed to keep the setup relatively streamlined while minimizing wind noise and maintaining full use of the factory windshield wipers.   A few details:   50" curved PRO light bar Fits 2022–2026 GMC Hummer EV Spot + driving beam pattern TIR optics White main beam Amber DRL backglow Approximately 15,410 measured lumens through the lens Mounts to factory accessory locations No cutting or drilling required Wiring runs down the A-pillar toward the AUX connections Designed to minimize wind noise Lifetime warranty Off-road use only     The 50" is an interesting middle ground for anyone who wants the visibility and mounting position of a roof bar without stepping all the way up to the larger 60" setup. For the Hummer EV owners here, would you go with the 50" for the lower-profile look or step up to the full 60"?

      Yeah, I've given up years ago with that! I was able to load a few when I first joined the site sometime around '07. Then after maybe 20 pics, it said I exceeded the limit. Now every pic I try to post says I've "exceeded 1mb".   ONE MB??? That's Windows 95 ******, lol!!

      I get the same results with pictures. Then I figure it out. Then I forget. Screw it.

      I guess I'm the only one on this forum who can't get effing pics to load here! Do you have to resize them to post, or am I just blocked from uploads?   I have the same luck with automotive electronics ... but this is the ONLY site on the net that I have this problem!   I'd post pics of what I'm working on ... but I CAN'T! 🤬       Just fabbed up the kickdown cable (had to extend the cable mount WAAAY out from the throttle shaft to get a full pull), and parts arrived for the fuel lines on the 940 carb conversion project. Should be able to drive this thing by the end of the day. If not for work, I'd have had this thing done SIX weeks ago.   Got the jetting sorted out last week. Had a real bad tip-in bog that I couldn't seem to correct. Friggin float height was over 11mm too HIGH! eBay purchase, so no wonder everything is screwed up right out of the box! I ended up with a larger dual-squirt accelerator pump jet anyway instead of the single. Also moved the 70 primary idle jet (4 sizes too big out of the box) to the secondary idle circuit, and installed a 57 in the primary. Runs great on the fuel bottle!    Still using the computer for ignition. Going to drive it first and see if I want to go through the project of installing an intermediate shaft with a distributor drive gear, so I can install a block-mounted distributor and run points, 100% computer free. I should do that anyway just from a simplicity / reliability / tunability standpoint. The electronics left me stranded last year a couple times! I can't tweak the timing to my liking right now because of the computer. Tried twisting the cam-driven distributor already ... and the damned thing just reverts back to where it was! That's infuriating. But if it runs well enough I might save that for next season.   Just driving it in and out of the shop to work on other projects, it feels 1,000% more responsive with the carburetor. Also fires MUCH faster when cranking. Can't wait to drive it and see if I got more than 114 ponies, lolol.   Hopefully these don't go 404 like the last post ... https://postimg.cc/gallery/MjhrmZS   Seems like that site went back to dial-up internet! Maybe they'll fix that some day ...
