I am reading this on a cell phone. Glad I read beyond the 7th word in the byline.

GM's Eaton auto locking rear end RPO code is G80

My next truck may be a GMt 800 or 900 platform

Beat me to it and very thorough sir. Transfer case and Diffs are important to change the fluid. Change brake fluid as well. Spark plugs, check belts. Brakes, yeah all the stuff you would check and do for any used vehicle with special attention to transfer case because it is AWD. And yeah...

I'm a little late to the party but this is exactly what Kelly blue book is for. Just go to their website and plug in the details as you have listed at the correct prompts, list your zip code and they will spit out a range. You can select private sale, or trade-in

Also, is this shell aluminum or fiberglass? I wager, if you want it because it is stronger than normal fiberglass, and if you intend on putting a rack or basket full of stuff up there, that stuff will cause a bigger hit on fuel economy than the slope or not?

The bugs are on the tob bar, I am guessing, because you have a roof basket preventing any getting on the slope of the cap?

I've got a fiberglass Leer 180 with Cap Rac by the old Trac Rac company (previously of Massachusetts, now owned by Thule) bars on top, and windows. Though I prefer a cab-high look, I like the little extra height of the 180 model in practice because I don't crouch way down as easy as I used to...

Near me they are asking $21k for 2018 with just over 80k miles, and up to $27/28k for ones with 40k miles. I'm trying to stay on the lower end of the mileage scale because I'm daily driving 500 miles per week. In 4 years, a car with 80k Mike's will be creeping up near 200 thousand miles and I...

I love the new Forester Wilderness but they are a bit pricey and marked up. So I have been looking at 2019 -2020 Forester Sports. I stumbled on an ad for an 18 Forester XT Touring and nearly dropped my lunch. First near the same price as a 20 Sport I can get the same options but with a saddle...

I feel that I have to go check the thread with your latest GM truck and find out what happened to it...

Correct. Just go get a new puppy and you will find out. They gotta get shots for it

Uh...wife = keeper!

Approaching a loaded GMC K1500

Just put it up on the roof and strap it down good

Very true. Vehicles are manufactured to higher standards now and easily last 10 years. Often 15 or more. At 50 and 70 grand for a new truck, the average car loan, creeping towards 7 years. What's the warranty for your Dell laptop out of the box? 3 years. So a lot of your vehicle's...

I'm not sure what you are driving other than the range rover you mention. In trucks like mine, there is a vent behind the back seat that leads to the outside of the cab, between the cab and bed. While I know this, only unterminated coax will get through, so I never took the time. I have run...

I think I did read about this. The tail light was the one that got me. LED does have that capability. I was at Museum of Boston in the late 1980's when there was a demonstration of how LED tail lights could be used to display messages. I thought it was cool, but useless. Kind of like my...

Back in the early 1980's in the Adirondacks, we hauled the bulk of our firewood in a 2wd '78 Ford single cab, 8 ft bed (nice metallic deep forest green). I want to say it was a Ranger back when they were a full sized truck. I couldn't stand that it was 2wd, but the farmer up the road had a...

I don't know. I'd say the Ranger is geared more towards some adventure, some offroad fun, and light work. Mav is more zipping around town and extremely light work. Home size mulch hauler (in bags) vs just dumping a load of mulch in there. And there's the hybrid. So while I thought as you...
