Fair point. Given the complexity of todays weapons systems retooling Ford or GM to build aircraft and tsnks like we did in WW2 is probably not very realistic.

The National Security argument is an interesting one, and not totally without merit. America’s ability to mobilize our industry durring the Second World War enabled us to out produce in such massive quantities that the outcome of the war was all but inevitable. I remember reading an account of...

Wall Street slips following Trump's latest tariffs, despite solid economic data General Motors sank 7.4% for one of the market’s sharper losses after Trump announced 25% tariffs on imported cars. Ford Motor dropped 3.9%...

If I look out at the parking lot at work or in the driveways in my neighborhood there is easily one Ford for every other brand of truck combined. Take Ford out of the picture and Ram probably beats out Chevy/GM and Toyota.

It will be interesting to see what this means long term for the Hurricane engine. The vocal part off the community seems to feel that the V-8 is the only option, but what about the average buyer. Will RAM be able to sell enough Hurricane equipped trucks to keep it in the line, does the...

Agreed, regens on the 3.0L are pretty seemless, and if it wasn't for the iDash I probably wouldn't know its taking place. I didn’t know they came out with a new model. I'll check ot out but will likely stick with the one I have.

Planed on commenting yesterday after watching the video but got distracted by life. I responded to a post on r/gmcsierra asking if it was safe to delete with pretty much the same points you raised. Despite the YouTube hype I haven't seen or read anything leading mme to believe that deletes are...

I can log in now. I haven't tried starting the truck with the app though

Looks like I'm not the only one. Threads on r/sierra and r/silverado about the app not working.

Is anyone else having issues with the GMC app? The other day I needed to log out and log back in to work. This morning I'm getting a message that the app cannot load my account details. Loggin out and in doesn't work, nor did reinstalling the app. I haven't tried rebooting the infotainment...

I feel that GM's end game is to make OnStar relevant again by taking away our options. Twenty years OnStar offered options that were not easily available through other means. Since then smart phones have become a viable option for those not wanting to pay GM a subscription. I canceled OnStar...

Regen frequency is likely closely related to the type of driving you are doing. My guess is that someone who drives a lot of highway milage is more likely to see pasive regens which would extend the time until an active regen is required. I'm probably not seeing any passive regens and mine are...

I'm still around, just got caught up in life. For the longest time I was averaging 165 miles between regens. Over the last 6 months I've been averaging 240 miles between regens. No real changes in my driving habits. What did change? There was an ECM update for the 24 LZO and I started using...

I was catching up on back episodes of the Car Stuff Podcast when Tom mentioned that some automotive website, I forget which one, was reporting that GM was discontinuing the 3.0L Duramax. Fortunately Jill called shenanigans, saying it was the kind of thing Tim and her would probably have heard...

I was on r/gmcsierra and we were discussing how the HDMI exhaust tips on the 1500 are not actually attached to the exhaust. Someone mentioned, that atleast on the 3.0L, this serves a purpose other than cosmetics. According to the poster the gap between the exhaust and the tip creates a venturi...

I think the difference in milage is mainly do to my driving 90% city/10% highway. On a long highway run I'm averaging 30 mpg. My first oil analysis at 1300 miles everything came back within expectations for an engine that was being broken in. I did another one at 10600 which was a bit high on...

Great idea for a thread. Here are my first year results on a 24 AT4 3.0L Miles Driven: 13,447 Diesel Fuel Used: 583.89 gallons ($2041.64) DEF used: 10 gallons ($40) Oil/Filter Changes: 3 ($65 each, I did 2, the dealer did the 1 free complimentary change) Diesel Fuel Additives: $40 Diesel...

Excellent choice in video games. Nothing beats enjoying a whiskey while smashing the French army.

I just watched the review earlier today. The high iron content for the Archoil was a bit concerning, but as they mentioned likely not typical. My last Blackstone oil analysis, which would have been after I started using Archoil AR6400-D was also high on iron. Not high enough according to...

Congrats on the new truck Mrs Tim. Looking forward to the videos.
