I always used to line the dome light lens cover with translucent red candy wrappers years ago, before they had replacement red bulbs or even led bulbs. Still have that in my mustang.

The wife's 02 mustang has a bluish/green dome light bulb that matches the dash lights that she's had in there for like 15 years.

Thought about getting replacement red bulbs for the Denali, but haven't because the factory bulbs are so dim/warm tone color. Still might though.

I’m kinda in the market for another truck. It’s kinda crazy how much RCSB trucks are going for. This looks like a perfect daily for me. Looks like most newer Silverado’s with low mileage are 30k+... and honestly I’d rather have this. But $21.5k for a 13 year old 94k mi 4.8 truck seems high... regardless of how clean it is. Not saying 94k miles are high. That’s low mileage in my book. Thoughts?

$21.5K? Maybe if it already had the turbo kit on it that it should get. I know a 6.0 or 6.2 is the usual solution for the 4.8. But, being a daily driver, I'd boost it. Have fun, keep your MPGs and just be a little different. Whooping F-bodies and hanging with 'Vettes is more fun when done with a 4.8.

Change my oil after work (145k) have to do my tire rotation this weekend.
Well doing the oil change I found that my drain plug on the radiator is weeping. So I might be ordering a Cold Case tonight or tomorrow since the weather is getting really hot really quick.

And while I was previously adjusting the maf, I noticed the bank one and Bank two were reading quite different from each other so while I was under there I swapped sensors between banks. To find out if those sensors are dying or if it's an air leak somewhere or an injector causing issues or some other problem.

I'm telling you....may seem like a lot for a tool but it earn's it's own way.
And... it will get your cookies out of the fire if you're in a jam. I wouldn't think of taking a long trip without the Tech2 riding along. It can make the difference between being held over a barrel by an unscrupulous shop, and being able to either call them on their BS or fix it yourself.

Between the $ 150 to diagnose the A/C and $75 spare key and Fob programing at locksmith I should have bought a tech2.

There is a slight learning curve, but there are plenty of youtube videos and documentation floating around the interwebs.
(Most of it hyperlinked in the tech2 thread iirc)

The tech2 is not my go-to scanner, but it's super handy to have. :cheers:


Random thing i found when dicking around with it; where the aftermarket backup camera got it's power from, the lift gate!
hack stereo installers :rolleyes:

That's on my list of things to fix later down the road. :D

That's a good point.
I never even thought about bringing it along with me on a long trip.
Once the new engine has been broken in, we have a trip to the coast planned.

I was thinking silly things like a basic tool kit to toss in there.
The tech 2 and the basic scan tool just made the list.
:cheers:

Actually, i think hp tuners and a laptop just made the list too... :D

I always take it on trips. If something happens, I'll at least know why and what needs fixing. As Dave said, not going to be held over a barrel or lied to by thieves.
