    To be honest, it doesn’t take much to throw a code in a Chevy. :annoyed:

    It can. I've pop started mine in every gear, including reverse.

    Oh there will be some mods all right
    It's a brand that accidentally made a couple quirky yet quality vehicles mixed in with a whole bunch of mediocrity.

    That's what I'm here for, the mods and the gear.

    Hahahaha this is a little too true! Especially having put 175k on an LBZ Duramax before it succumbed to the rust

    I've somehow managed to keep the rust at bay. Had it since X-Mas 0f '97. Spent a lot of time on my hands and knees, on a wet floor, in the winter, to keep it like this. It still wears the factory paint.

    I had access to a heated wash bay at work.

    Nice! I will forever die on the hill that GMT400 seats are the pinnacle of automotive seating. Whoever decided that riding on an overstuffed couch isn’t the correct arrangement for a pickup truck should be tarred and feathered

    Reinforced my transfer case skid. Kinda bent it at Tigerton. Hard to do anything because the exhaust and transfer case hang so low into the skid. Hopefully will hold up better in Moab.

    I should really start a build thread.....

    Got out on the ice this morning. I haven't been ice fishing since I was a kid, but a buddy of mine talked me into going. Plenty of action but we only got one Northern on the ice. Good times though. I'm glad my buddy has a lot of ice fishing gear or I'd already be ordering stuff for next time. Only thing I will get is a decent pair of crampons. If anybody has a brand recommendation, give me a shout.

    Yea... My stock front skid took a BEATING at Tigerton... Trying to get across the mud bog (hidden rock garden) to the actual rock garden. At least I didn't play it like that kid in the white truck...

    I need to do that to mine. Bent to the point it's up against an exhaust hanger and it rattles like crazy when I'm in gear and stopped
