Hi just looking to say hello

:)

I recently bought a 2017 Tahoe LS with 80,000 miles, and added the following MODs:
Boost Auto heated tow mirrors with Turn signals and rear facing High Output LED Spotlights
Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller
Optional Factory wheels with 285/45R22 tires; Original tires are 265/65R18 which I will use for winter tires
LED headlight, turn signal, back up, fog lights

I'm considering adding a second battery and higher amperage alternator

I will be towing a 6000 pound 25 foot travel trailer

My wife, of 45 years, and I are retired

In my previous life I worked as an machinist, automotive mechanic, heavy truck mechanic, regional truck driver, and a heavy duty wrecker operator

Note the rear bumper step is discolored, I used true black to bring the step color back to black

Hi
I heard you have lots a room in the springtime and you can sell your paintings on the sidewalk. At least that’s what Dave Loggins sez.

If you haven’t driven a car with column straight shift, you may need to ask your grandpaw about this.

How have you liked the boost auto mirrors? Any issues? I am considering installing on my ‘19 but haven’t seen many reviews.
