The reason for my handle being mblrds is really very simple.  Each letter is the first inital in each family member name; the "m" being me, the "b" being my wife and the "lrds" being the four kids in descending order of their age.

Mine's pretty simple:

y2k = 2000

ZR2 = My truck

They 2 ties into them both so just add the y to the front and the k to the end of my truck.

Oh and a warning in advance,I know what some of you are going to be thinking withe me having a "k" and a "y" in my description above so before anyone gets any ideas,all jokes about KY Jelly will be deleted.

Got that everyone (Newbie,et al) ? :biggrin:

I was thinking of posting this question.. You beat me to it.. LOL

Anyway i m a die hard chevy fan so i thought it would fit right to be Chev4Ever..  Plus i wanted a general name instead of something like ChevZR2 because if i ever had to get rid of the truck i would have to keep changing emails and usernames.. While Chev4ever can be universal because i know i will always be driving some kind of chev...

Well, back about 3 years ago when I started to frequent the Suburban forum I had just purchased a second Sub to use at the cabin in addition to the 94 Sub we had at the time.  It's an 88 and is two-tone blue on blue.  It seemed "bigger" than the 94 Sub so naturally the kids named it BIG BLUE.  Have been using that name on just about every forum since ;)

      Oil Consumption

      By Atlas · Posted

      Talk about throwing people for a loop! The newer Jeep 4-cylinders (2018+, "Hurricane" engine) make people think they're hallucinating when checking the oil. A proper oil check, described in the owner's manual, is exactly 5 minutes after shutdown of a fully warm engine. Not before 5 minutes. Not when the engine is cold. You have to take a reading when the recirculation in the turbo and top engine has drained down, but not completely empty.   When those engines are stone-cold, the dipstick reads almost 1.5 quarts overfull. When they're warm right after shutdown, the stick may read almost empty..   If you change the oil and dump out 5 quarts of dirty oil including changing the filter, and refill with 5 quarts, this really can mess with your head if you check the oil later on and don't know what you're looking at.

      Shopping for new truck and have question.

      By stlchevy61 · Posted

      Go for the 10-spd. I have a 2024 3/4 ton and 1 ton dually. We are now at over 100k miles between the two. The 3/4 ton doesn't tow as much and I have had zero issues. The 1 ton tows a couple times a week, 10-16k depending on the machine I am moving. Both trucks are used for construction and also spend time at the farm, have been great. Had an issue with the 1 ton and GM replaced the valve body in the transmission, it was down for 3 weeks which sucked, but it was all covered. It tows great and I really like the 6.6 L8T. Maintenance has been easy, I do all oil and fluid changes myself. The front end is greasible, so make sure you keep everything lubed up.    On our 2018 3/4 ton with the 6.0 I just had to use our unlimited powertrain warranty. I thought the warranty would never actually pay, but once they saw the engine was spotless inside at 180k and the only issue was a failed camshaft bearing, they paid 12k for a new engine. Always thought those warranties were a scam, but if you are diligent about maintenance and keep track of your records, they are great. Many of the oil changes were self performed, but I had all the receipts from buying the oil and filters, and had a log with the mileage I changed it at.

      Recalls 2024 Chevrolet HD

      By stlchevy61 · Posted

      Alright so this one ended up being a different TSB that was not related to the transmission at all. It was the O2 sensor wire that got too close to the exhaust and melted. I guess the 5v reference wire melted, shorted out and caused about 200 codes to populate and the truck to go into limp mode.    https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2024/MC-10253570-0001.pdf
