WHITE isn't even a color... You guys are getting worked up over nothing.

 

It's very hard to improve on perfection.

Here is my white ride with the pewter bottom..... The pewter kinda makes the white pop a little bit more....

 

A couple the weekend after I bought then some in the snow last year.

It was warm and not raining Saturday. So I spent a few hours outside cleaning up my truck. First wash by hand all winter..... MAN did she clean up nice again. The old girl is gettn older and the OE paint looks good but, I am about ready to lay some Martin Senour Tec Base and clear down..... Plus it would be nice to remove a few unsightly wrinkles that have collected on her in a couple places...

Add another 1 to the klan....

 

Just picked up my Summit White 4x4 Crew Cab Z71 last week.

I have had a black F250 4x4 for a year or 2 and could NOT stand that thing. I'll NEVER have a black truck again.

So not only am I a black to white convert...I'm also a Ford to Chevrolet convert!!

 

Wow - it was a BIG day!!

Mine does not have the tv? screen on the dash board (don't even know what it is for), wood grain trim, sunroof, or windshield fluid heater, which is fine as I don't need them. I don't have leather, did in my 05 and didn't like it either. I do have power adjustable pedals which I never use, I love the bluetooth for the phone, a back up camera which I'm starting to like more and more, The auto climate control which I would gladly trade for the manual set-up, and the sonar back-up warning system which prevents hitting things. The only thing I don't have which I wish I had is the passenger side electric adjustable seat.

 

That would be A Screen based navigation System my Summit White Compadre!

Actually...White IS a color. In fact "pure white" (aka: true white) it is the presence of ALL colors in the spectrum at once.

Black is the absence of color and shouldn't even be considered a color because it is VOID of any color in the spectrum...ie: black.

 

This is why when white light is passed through a prism will reveal many other colors. Meaning the white light is divided into it's core colors that are combined to make up "white". Black will not react this way when passed through a prism. It is the "void" of all color.

      Mangoal or FitcamX OEM Dashcam?

      By MANGOAL · Posted

      Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge.

      Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
