2006 Chevy... bought new in Jan 2007... Have had it ALMOST 2 years. 64,000 miles.

 

2006 Cadillac...bought new for Christmas in December 2006.

Have had it EXACTLY two years today. 49,000 miles.

 

Also had another car in that time frame that I put about 20,000 miles on. Then sold it.

 

Looks like I drive a little over 65,000 miles a year.

Ivan,

 

Looks like a bunch of y'all have garage queens.

Heck... they are made to DRIVE... not to just sit around all time. :lol::lol::D

 

Oh.. BTW... I do IT service work for a major bank and my service area is over 10,000 square miles. I spend a lot of time driving from point "A" to point "B".

 

There are four in your town. One is just to the south of the freeway... right downtown. You can see the sign from the freeway. :help: Last year some of the lights were out in the sign on top of the building.

I've got an '80 Silverado with 251k or so on it. On my '04 GMC I've got a little over 66k

 

 

Got any pics of your '80? I love the old trucks

 

 

I'll have to look through my pics and post later. I love it too. Rebuilt motor and tranny about 100k back. Put hotter cam, better carb and intake on it. It flies down the highway even pulling a load. Valve guide seals are going out though.....

mine isn't a garage queen!! I drive mine daily to work and on weekends. We drive the wifes car on long trips and if we are out and about because it is easier to park a car then the truck. It is nice driving the 09 malibu around. We had it for like 2-3 monthes and put on about 6000 miles. We don't drive much plus all are friends and family are close by.

      2019+ Brake failure, it's complicated

      By needafix · Posted

      I'm not sure if this should be a new topic, let me know if it's out of place. This my first post. Thanks 85077522 - AC Delco GM Genuine Parts Brake Master Cylinders. Anyone else had to replace this brake master cylinder yet. I didn't do any brake work, it looks like new parts and I've had the truck for about 4k miles, 119k total miles.  When it started to throw codes I did the calibrations with a bidirectional scanner and got the codes to clear but they came back so I did the routine; base bleed, automated bleed and final base bleed. All that with Bosch ES16-32N fluid (please look it up). That seemed to fix it but 100ish miles later it failed again so I ran the same process but with a pressure bleeder this time and got the same results, fixed for 100ish miles. The original fluid looked bad and I thought I got most of it out, it could've been the wrong fluid. The codes; P25A2, C05B0-00, C2A1B. I can get them to clear but not for long. The C05B0 indicates a leak in the front circuit (which is bone dry) so I'm thinking of doing the bleed process on that front again today and I don't know if that's taboo to just do the front but at this point it seems like it's worth the try anyway. The new master cylinder/module unit is supposed to get here today. But now I'm pretty much convinced this install is over my head. I've called several shops and some mobile guys that I know but this thing is like radio active material, scary wise. I did get 2 local shops say they should be able to do it, one says he has the SPS2 programing capability. And with the battery disconnected is there supposed to be pedal resistance, mine is to the floor, then if I pump it I can get some resistance. I had a panic stop prior to this issue which may have contributed from what I read. And on the first attempt to bleed and hydraulic test the scanner listed things to look for and one was any gaps between the pad and rotors which I did notice on the RF corner and I removed the outer pad (where the gap was) cleaned it and the hardware and didn't see a gap after that but will re-check it. I read that if pushing the caliper pistons back then you're supposed to open the bleeder so as to not push fluid backwards into the abs module or it will damage it. If that's true then that's also a possibility from the previous owner having the brakes changed before I got it. I'm using an XTool ip500 scanner. Any suggestions, questions and comments welcome.

      Next Friday will be my 6 week point from my right knee replacement.  The surgeon says it will be fine if I choose to drive after this checkup.  I know I could drive now but best to do as my surgeon (and my wife) tell me.  Richard compared being 62 to 72.  I remember when I was in my early 60's I was experiencing slow but regular decline in my mobility.  Thanks to good medical support,  i continued to fight the speed and spread of this decline. During my 60's I worked on non-surgical methods and just when I turned 70, my orthopedic surgeon recommended joint replacements.  In a little over a year, I had one shoulder and both knees replaced.  This hasn't been a terribly fun experience, but worth the discomfort as my future mobility health trajectory has reversed.  It is a treat to now be watching my mobility. balance and confidence steadily improve!
