I was 6 at the time and it's the first memory I have of a hurricane. I thought it was awesome, no school, didn't care about no power.
My parents and grandparents did not think it was awesome at all :lol:

Agree, the most reliable drivetrains are in the HD trucks.

The 3.0L diesel is something unique to others I think. Don't know of any others offering a diesel in a 1500 series. Great mileage.
Ticking time bomb. People get the diesel and think the mileage is great but forget it has all the after treatment stuff the big diesels have.
For the large majority of people that will do a lot of around town driving, stop and go traffic, idling, etc. The diesel is a horrible option. You'll end up with a clogged DPF and emissions related issues. That is if you keep the emissions system intact.

We have a 2024 Escalde w/ the 6.2. Only 35k miles but no issues, haven't brought it in for "resolution" yet. Seems like the "fix" isn't worth it since I'm under warranty still?
We have a 22 Yukon XL with the 6.2 the fix is they change the oil to 40w synthetic. It's Corvette supercar oil. It's literally an oil change and they swap out the cap on the oil fill to reflect the oil.
Better be doing your own oil changes, I wouldn't trust 99% of shops to put the correct oil in it.

Hey my doc wants me to switch to buspiron - what’s your thoughts on it? Side affects? And is it effective?
Now want to make it clear, I never for one day thought I battled anxiety or stress. I have muscular induced TMJ from a bulging disk so they put me on buspiron to try to mitigate any stress or anxiety.
The first week, I hated it, I'm a medicine wuss, I feel every symptom of every med. It made me dizzy as shite when I took it. I was supposed to take 10mg twice a day, I stuck with just once a day. After a week or so I absolutely felt the reduced anxiety, slept better, didn't sweat the small things etc. Oddly enough I stopped it and my pain for my neck actually came back along with the anxiety I didn't know I was dealing with. Didn't sleep for shite the first week off of it. I'm back on it now and all is well.
No adverse side effects except dry eyes. Like I said, medicine hits me differently than most, I get all the commercial side effects:lol:

Well yeah panic attacks are real, you had alcohol induced anxiety.
Stills sucks, I'm nearing 40 and never thought I was an anxious person. I got put on buspiron for something muscular and unrelated to anxiety. I recently stopped it and I realize just how much it was affecting me.

Using a knife for normal kitchen things, then being a dumbass and going to scratch my nose or something and stabbing myself in the face/eye.
It hasn't happened yet thankfully.

Have 43 foot fifth wheel. 4 long weekends to lakes, week at the beach, have another planned for Chattanooga area over kids fall break.
Even counting the RV payment and insurance, were less than what we used to spend for a week at cape San blas. It's different for sure, but we like it.

Honestly, not as bad as DEF in the diesel tank....actually they are both terrible. Multi thousand dollar repairs if she starts that truck :lol:

Buddy on a beach trip. Had a baby snake go into a pool filter, everyone was freaking out. He just snatched it out and it got him, cottonmouth. He was lucky dry bite.

Found your exact location. And found trash. From your screenshot, pan to the right. Over the second rail, left side of the stream.
The full 360 from that position has to have 0 trash to win.
Remove their food source.
ETA the fun answer. Get a blow gun and start sticking them.

Setting your trailer brakes to 10 is terrible advice. Your trailer should not stop your tow vehicle. That can cause wheel lock up, skipping, flat spots, additional heat in the trailer brake system. You've also created a situation that could end with longer stopping distances.
That's on dry ground, on wet ground you've created a jackknife risk.
It is a good try, your advice goes against every single towing recommendation on brake configuration.

my trailer brakes are set to ten. And the truck is put in tow mode. If I touch my brake pedal slightly, the truck downshifts, the trailer brakes engage. The truck brakes never even have to apply force.
This is terrible towing advice.

For 6k lbs they will need at least a 1 ton dually, probably in F450 territory.
-downshift probably.

What is your life’s purpose?
To work and give my children a good life, enjoy it all as I go along.
This. I'm not an overly religious person but at baseline it's a great guide on living life to be a good person.
As a husband and father, my goal is to leave this place better than I found it. Provide for my wife and marriage more than she knew before (her parents). Provide for my children more than I ever had, teach all of them to do the same.
I don't care if I leave this place broken, tired, and used up. As long as I do the above, I did my job.
