2004 6.0 NV4500 Tahoe

[Dantheman1540]

Got the wrecked car started even though the battery cables completely riped in half. I'm shocked how well this honda took the hit, the roof is actually buckled around the sunroof. Anyway, this post is totally Tahoe unrelated but I did put my little sister to work. Since I let her take the week off school due to being bruised and sore she had plenty of time to finish painting my car hauler! It came out great and still has another coat to go!

Is this the 2nd car she's had an accident in?

I like the sand in your yard. All we have is dirt.

I love 2 steps set as a limiter it sounds ridiculously awesome! Just gotta be careful not to do it in da hood, might get return fire.

**Disclaimer** it only sounded like that with the cutout open and purposefully bouncing off the 2 step. I would never do that around town or where I would bother people.

Good thing you have the disclaimer.

Wow, I have never heard another 2 step on the streets near me, but I live in BFE so it's not surprising. I would feel bad about ripping down my dirt road track but its state property on both sides and the ditch lines are the neighborhood mud hole enjoyed mostly by the older folks in the area that have mud trucks or Dueces. nobody minds as long as its neighborhood folks doing it and not some outside idiots.



I don't blame you our worst offender is the "Boom Boom truck" a ragged red 2000 Dakota with 4 15s in the back that does my neighborhood loop as slow as possible around 1 am when he's drunk. He's gotten 3 DUIs and has no license so he can't really go anywhere but around the neighborhood. I'd love to accidentally cut the cones out of those woofers one day. Its always terrible music like AC/DC but with rap over it and the bass exaggerated.

You are really just joking that ac/dc is terrible music right?

Another rescue mission in the Tahoe. My little sister turned left on a green light, not a green arrow and pulled right out in front of a 2019 Jetta going 60mph, totalling both cars but the drivers had no injuries. She didn't have collision insurance since its a $1,500 beater so I had to go pick the car up before we racked up any more $35 a day storage fees. Trailer worked great, the harbour freight 12k winch is amazing and the Tahoe pulled it without any drama, I think its about to roll over 260k too which is cool.

Check out my Japanese lawn ornament. It can be yours for a couple hundo$$$

Wow, she’s lucky she didn’t pull out a little more, that could have really messed her up. And good thing that wasn’t a bike she pulled out in front of like someone did to me on my Harley and I t-***** him at 40. At 60 I would be dead.

No this is her first accident thankfully. My Tacoma was wrecked by another family member. I still haven't gotten it to the shop because it still runs and drives and It's been on yardwork duty.

Looks so cool to see sand in your yard. All we have is dirt.

The sand gets old quick, it's easy to get stuck in any part of my yard and fills your shoes. If you spin the tires even half a rotation and the thin layer of grass is broken it's like sinking in quicksand. Kinda cool this is in the center of the state at one of Florida's highest elevation points. This furthermore proves this place was underwater not long ago haha.

Good thing you had the Disclaimer

Oh course I'm super responsible.

You are really just joking that ac/dc is terrible music right?

No, I love AC/DC, this guy has some strange AC/DC remix where it has hardcore bass added to it and it sounds ridiculous.

Yeah, it was definitely the best-case scenario even though it sucks. Looking all over for a new car under 2k for her, looked at a few things but nothing panned out yet. She swears the car didn't have its headlights on and it was dark. When I picked up her car the other car was there so I had her run the VIN to see if it had auto headlights. It did not but it did have day time running LEDs which are decently bright which kinda shoots holes in her excuse.

 

[Dantheman1540]

Came very close to backing into my trailer last night because it was too dark to see clearly with my backup camera. So enough is enough it's time for lighting mods like all you other cool doods!

Ordered a top brake light since mine hasn't worked since I got the truck and some snazzy Morimoto 3157 V-XF bright white bulbs. If this isnt enough I may add a small led pod light next to the hitch or something. Anyone run any of these? I've always had a good luck with morimoto/retrofit source.

Could get one of these. https://www.headlightrevolution.com/XTR-LP-Reverse-Light-System_2?quantity=1
Those guys have some pretty good bulb comparisons on their YouTube.

That is pretty neat, if the brighter bulbs don't do the trick that will be the next step. I've never heard of Headlight revolution before but I like all the data they provide. Great link thank you!
