Not sure about reliability, but the 8 speed shifts better than the 10R80 or the 10R60s that I've driven.
On my truck, I actually often disable 9 and 10 when driving locally as it seems to minimize the gear hunting.
When I first installed a sub in my truck, the fake engine noise was its favorite song.
Removing the engine noise with Forscan finally allowed the sub to be useable.
I don't care for the No Dipstick aspect at all.
However, if I get one it will be from the local Chevy dealer that has lifetime powertrain warranty.
And since my driving will equal 1 oil/filter change per year, getting it done at the dealer so that everything is documented is not really an issue.
I've actually already done that comparison, and I surprised myself as much as anybody by liking the ZR2 better.
If I get a new vehicle, it WILL have ventilated and cooled seats.
GM finally released the numbers on the new L4B
2027 Colorado Power Increase
After driving quite a few of the ZR2 variants, I'm going to be watching this closely.
Can't wait to drive one and see if the power increase can be felt.
Mainly want to see if it makes me want a 2027 model or to look...
I think quiet and smooth ride is more important than maximum traction this time around.
I have a Jeep for the real off road stuff.
Hey!
Grok made me some!
Went from the Livernois High Performance tune (91-93) to the Mid-grade tune.
Mid grade used to be called 87-89 Performance but now is called 87-93 Performance.
Not sure if that means I'll get more power if I do run premium in it, but due to the current price differential I'll probably only run...
It's a great feeling!
Congrats and Enjoy :like:
Edit: I can't believe I didn't insert my typical useless tidbit, so here goes.
Now that the truck is paid off, keep making the payment but make it to yourself.
You have been putting that monthly amount toward the truck, now you can put that...
Well, when I had the factory headlights, they sucked so bad I couldn't leave until daylight.
Now with decent headlights I can leave early and beat the rush!
And I don't have to be in a hurry to get there 😁
When 95+% of your driving is curvy GA 2 lane roads, you don't get a lot of...
Just be sure to keep maintenance records and do maintenance on time.
My wife's SUV is a hybrid and has a lifetime powertrain warranty.
It gets serviced by the book.
If you miss an oil change by 100 miles some of the warranty companies will void everything.
Thankfully she doesn't have to...
Tow mode does a great job of engine braking.
And fully agree with @Glocker on the drilled/slotted rotors on a vehicle that goes off road.
Any potential benefits are outweighed by many potential problems.
