3. Dark Green

After the first one, I said I would never have another black vehicle. I soon realized, nothing looks better

 

Except green. :fume:

Over the past 10 years I really haven't stuck with the same colors, and certainly not black. I had Black, Silver, Silver Birch (Tan), Silver Birch again, White, and then Black. I'll go with just about anything around those particular colors depending on the vehicle and the type of paint.

 

Just nothing similar or related to green, blue, red, purple, orange, pink, brown, or yellow.

 

But everything else is OK. :fume:

Black Trucks FTW! my last truck was light pewter metallic, but that wasn't my fault, i wanted black. so when it came time for a new truck i settled for nothing less than black and i'm glad. you just cant beat the way black vehicles look.

I love the looks of the black trucks...however....my summer car is black and well to be perfectly honest I didn't really want the headache of keeping two black vehicles clean all summer long.

Here is my jet black and jealous ride. I have had 2 black Silvy's, an 02 and this 08 LS. Both were reg cab long box LS's and the 02 had 4.8L and this one I didn't mess around, 5.3L with AFM and FF. Love this truck, absolutely awesome, (except for the transfer case being shot from the factory, thats a WHOLE nother story), but yah, its everything I need and want. Only pics I could find of my 08 at the moment, in the box is my 69 John Deere 112 fully restored. In case anyone is into vintage garden tractors.

      2019 GMC Sierra 1500 - 8l90

      By LCH14 · Posted

      Looking for help!   2019 GMC Sierra 1500 - 5.3l 4x4 8l90 61k miles - truck is in Arizona, was over 110 outside on Monday when this whole situation transpired. Never had any major issues with transmission until this point:   Truck sat outside my construction office for approx 1 hour idling before I realized, ran around the job site wrapping some things up for the day and then left. Went to get food and sat in the drive through for approx 30 minutes idling. As soon as I pull out of the drive through and onto the main road, rear tires lock up and feels like transmission fell out of the truck. Shifted to park, shut the truck off and tried again, same thing happened. Was able to reverse into parking lot (truck slammed into reverse). Let the truck sit turned off for 10 minutes before trying again, but it continued to happen. Towed truck back to my house. Highest the trans temps reached was 198.   Friday, after work I start looking into the situation. Truck sat in my driveway untouched all week. Truck is now driving like normal, transmission doesn’t get over 185 degrees when trying to heat it up. Got up to 60 multiples times with no issues, no issues accelerating, only down shifted hard into first one time at 185 degrees. Does anyone have any insight? Never through a code or a check engine light. Truck has never been used to tow either. No transmission services at this point.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Atlas won.   I know better, but I did it anyway. I took a compressed air line with a chuck and rubber tip and jammed it in the open EGR port. The port was clear as far as I could see, and as far as I could poke with a flexible wire, but that doesn't mean it's not clogged.   Compressed air blew back at me along with a cloud of black. Oops. I didn't have the rubber tip seated in there all the way. Jammed it up in there some more and squeezed the chuck. PSI was set to 120. Poof! It blew back at me again. Third time...pfffffttssssssspffffffsssfffffff, face full of carbon, and then, kind of a thud..and the air stopped spraying back at me. It was now exiting the exhaust with a low shhhhhh sound as it flowed through the pipe. Something broke free. I pressurized the port again, and air flowed.   Made my day.   Long story short on this problem, it's fixed. Something was really blocking the EGR passages down low, and compressed air blew it apart. I don't recommend this as who knows what debris was sent where. But it's allowed me to move forward, mentally, and onto the next problems I need to get this little S-Blazer going down the road properly again.

      Looking at ordering a '26 WT because I want a std cab, std bed

      Your truck lowered, looks good. I'm happy with the stance on this. I may need the extra ground clearance given my location/situation.

      PPE Transmission Pan Install

      By GMC4Zee · Posted

      With this new pan, do you still use the same procedure to check the level? Its a deeper pan and our trucks do not have a fill tube/dipstick. So fill till fluid runs out the check plug?
