    There are just some days I wish I didn't turn wrenches

    Your biggest thing, with it seems every GM Body on Frame, is if the body to frame bolts come loose. I think I remember that most of them are exposed, so that if they are frozen, its just a matter of cutting/torching them off. But I seem to remember that 2 of them are not fully exposed, and go to...

    This is now available at a local station

    Its the only thing I run in my Envoy. Its parked a lot, and I dont need the Ethanol gumming/crystalizing up the fuel system. I also run it once a month in my Saturn, to keep the E10/15 crystals cleaned out.. My wife only puts about 200 miles a month on it.

    Im not sure the testing processes for the Hybrid battery... From my reading on Hybrid forums, you have to take the battery out of the truck, remove the cell membrane, busbar, and test each battery individually. Its quite a process.

    It doesnt.. And the Hybrids still had the AFM/DOD problems as all the other years. If the Hybrid battery dies, the whole truck dies. They are not to bad in replacing at $2500-3500 thru aftermarket Hybrid Battery Rebuilders. But thats still a chunk of change

    Stay away from the Hybrid. If you do want one, go with a 2011 or 2012. 2010 was a crossover year, so you never knew if you were getting the old or new. Why not get that Suburban for 7500 that someone recently posted...

    Arnott Passive vs. Active Mageneride Replacement: Am I understanding tradeoffs correctly?

    I found the cheapest place to buy the Arnott Shocks was SummitRacing.com They also didnt charge a core charge.. This was a couple years ago thou. This allowed me to call Arnott directly, and they bought them from me, and paid for shipping.

    6.6 Gas L8T Engine Swap in 2015 Suburban

    I dont think it would fit in my Envoy.. And I still havent figured out what I would do about my front diff (in case you didnt know, my front diff is mounted to the oil pan, and my oil pan has a pass through for the axle)

    I would be all over those... except they are 111T tires, and I need a minimum of 115H. Big weight handling difference.

    2021 Tahoe Illuminated door sills

    It was likely done on purpose by GM as they did not use dimming LED's. So to extend the lifetime of the LED's, they are connected to a on off switch, instead of the interior lighting which has the opera lighting feature.

    There are just some days I wish I didn't turn wrenches

    They arent as good as they once were. We had a Jasper engine 4.8LS that we installed in one of our shop trucks last October. It failed on startup. The next engine has had lifter issues on cylinder 7 ever sense, and getting them to cover that has been a nightmare.

    Nope... There are certain things about most Tesla owners that I dont even want to be associated with.. Most of them political, so... It is now slowly migrating into the Rivian owners too... And I am realizing I hate them just as much.. But at least the Rivian looks somewhat normal. The Tesla...

    Be a normal mechanic, and rub some grease on it, and put some electrical tape on it.
