drill a hole on the bottom of the doors front & rear, that way the water will just drain out no matter if you are flat/angled up or angled down

I swapped to the H3 Motor Mounts to control the 6.2L power. The OEM style mount I put in 1 year ago had failed. Towed with it today, engine feels rock solid, no more clunking as it jumped in the mount. Idle was smooth no extra vibration felt at all.
Tried using the Tow Haul mode, boat only weighs 4,000. pounds and Tow Haul was much to aggressive for me. At one point the engine revved to 4800 RPM climbing a mild hill. No reason for that at all. I was hoping it would start to self tune if I just let it go but that did not seem to happen. Also on slowing down if I let fully off the gas the tranmission downshifted to help me slow down. Not a fan of this, I always believed Brakes are Cheap, Transmissions are costly. I see no reason for the tranny to aggressivly downshift on mild stops. In the tranny's defense I have not used tow haul and it may just take time for it to self program???
The H3 Motor mount on Amazon was $260 I think but easier to install as the heat shield is much smaller leaving room for tools to get in there. It is a robust part for sure. Funny Amazon says it only fits the Passenger side. They are wrong it fits both sides just fine.
It is a lot of money, I think the one that broke in 12 months was only $50 but I don't want to do this job ever again. Way too much work to get in there to change the mount.
Edit: The H3 part that fits both Pass and driver side is: 25847739. GM Part number. A very durable design but goes in easier than the stock mount.

I can smell the sweat and Longhorn mashed taters from here!! 
the transmission grade braking feature doesn't hurt anything all it does it is hold the gear instead of downshifting, it's a nice feature and helps save the brake pads from overheating resulting in loss of brakes, it's something you will appreciate on a steep downgrade

Maybe Nick can update this advice but a friend and tranny shop owner, now retired instructed me to use the brakes to get down to proper speed and then downshift the tranny to help hold that speed. He advised clearly to avoid dropping gears in and automatc trans to slow the car down. It was his statement, brakes are cheap and trannys very costly. He said the trannys are very durable holding speed once they are in gear but vulnerable to damage when dropping it down a gear to slow the car. Once you have it in the proper gear he said no damage happens and it can hold your speed going down grades. I have followed his advice for several years now but maybe he is out of date with the newer tranny's on the market.
no, when you brake it automatically downshift then you can let off of the brake and it will/should hold the gear for a good while, unless you brake more or accelerate more
