    This one with the 6.2 gets better gas mileage than ole trustee. I tracked the fuel for 114k and averaged 16.3mpg. AC cost 1.5mpg and in winter I would get about 17mpg. Anything over 75mph and I dropped into the low 16’s and over 80mph dropped into the low 15’s.
    Yes, I am really curios to see what the MPG will be as a member of club battleship

    I don't understand what the new Z31 means yet, that's what my neighbor's is badged as. I haven't seen the new GM trucks at work. We're getting Rams and F-words so I don't have any intel on them. Not that it matters, all the new vehicles are so computer and sensor driven I couldn't do much more than check the oil and add fuel and washer fluid. Our LE have new Interceptor Tahoes, those are the only new GM I've seen. My boss has a stock Tahoe for a g-ride also but it's a year or 2 old.

    I think you need to get some Pepto and go take a nappy nap. Maybe that will help you feel better

    I think the Z31 in GMC language is the same a the Z71 in Chevy speak... It is a way to differentiate the two brands. The Z92 package is a factory authorized aftermarket kit that lifts the truck 6”...

    My last trip through west Texas on I-10 I seen a bunch of Ram Cummins welding trucks headed somewhere. Looked like a modern gold rush. Some were nose to tail, 3 or 4 together. Most were custom made beds with new/newer welding machines. But there were a bunch of Raptors too. Figured I was in the wrong business (as usual).

    Naw I'm ok.

    Lightheaded and tired, not barfing.

    That was more of a comment on the non-tacoma.

    I will change my underwear, though

    They said something about acute gastritis without hemorrhage.
    All I know is it fuckin hurt and I’m still feeling the effects.
    Although functional I still have a long way to go.
    Definitely don’t want to have to worry about blizzards or hurry up work for a few weeks yet..

    The drivetrain is not what people are use to.
    Unfortunately it’s not going to get any better..
