What brand? Just so I know to stay away. My last one was a Duracell from Batteries Plus and lasted 4 years until I swapped it out for maintenance. I’m running an Interstate AGM now in both trucks, I have heard good things about them.
BAttery tested bad when I took it inside Autozone. Had them tested it on their inside testers and failed load test twice. When I went to connect the new battery, there was more crackle then I'm used to. I will have my buddy put his scanner on it and see if it's pulling excess amps while off.

In between coats of paint sealer, I thought I’d give a LONG LONG TERM update in my application of the cerakote on the black trim. I applied it in like March of 2021 or something. I can’t believe how well it has held up. NO reapplication or ANY other products applied since, just washes of the truck etc. it still is deep black and looks great. Simply unbelievable. If you still haven’t tried this, stop wasting your time on anything else haha

Edit: Truck sits outside in the FLORIDA sun and rain all the time

So when I replaced my bad battery, I saw the driver side firewall was oily. Just my luck the brake booster is now leaking. Can't say I'm surprised at 270k miles. The master cylinder was replaced 3 years ago. So I went shopping and picked up a new ACD hydro booster, new 2020+ front rotors, new 2020+ power stop pads, new stock replacement brake hoses, new rear guide pins/boots and new stock powerstop rear pads. Should be installing all this tomorrow including my 2020+ 4 piston calipers. I have had the new calipers in the garage maybe 12 months now.

Mines holding up well too. It’s a great product for textured black plastic for sure.

Finally cut the muffler off the Tahoe. It was hot af--101 today. So of course I decided to work on the van too. The 3" v clamps were too big, should've got the 2.75" clamps. So gonna have the gf go tomorrow to get it welded up.
The seam split on the MBRP too.20220724_180057.jpg20220724_174345.jpg20220724_174401.jpg20220724_174411.jpg

New hydrobooster on. Too dsmn hot to install the front calipers. Plus I also had to mow the yard. The booster job was fun, especially the nuts under the dash
