What percentage are you gonna get your front windows tinited? I just got my 2500 hd front windows tinited with 35% and same as the windsheild strip. I have 5% on my F250, but it is wayyyyyyyy tooooo dark. I always had to have the windows down when plowing. I'm actually exempted in the state of NJ now and can legally have my windsheild and 2 front windows tinted, however they wanted the side windows to be 60% and the windsheld 70% VLT (Visible light transmission). The 35% I think is a nice percentage to have as far as seeing out of. I got that 3M tinit which cost more, but doesn't change colors after a few years like it did once on my Mustang. Not sure how your state laws are with front windows tinted. The county I grew up in in NJ never use to give me any crap over the tint, since moving out West to a different county thats all they do out here because there is no crime for them. They'll even pull you over when it's raining if water drips on your license plate. Yes it's true, some cop pulled over my wife because he said he couldn't see her license plate because there was water on it, Duh it was raining officer! He was really just trying to harass her for the tinti. But not any more.. I am tint exempted in the state of NJ. For all you other NJ peope here if you want to IM me on how to become tint exempt, feel free to do so.

BTW WHTCHEVY, did your truck had the option to come with fender flares? I think a nice set of black flares would look kick ass on that truck.

I am going to get those windows either 15% or 20% Which ever maches up the best! I think that the 20 % will match up though....

 

No I didnt get that option for the fender flairs... I know we have them on our older 2500HD's...

      seat base height *lowering* (base 40/20/40 seat, 2026 1500 WT std cab)

      By bwiese · Posted

      Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose

      I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Dave's Auto (custom engine builder) tear down of L8T

      By No F-bdy Bs · Posted

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
