OK, the light bulb went off in my head today while I was driving. Two months prior to my WV trip I installed the stainless steel Borla cat back exhaust. Perhaps that could have had something to do with the increase in mileage.

The existing 3.5 V6 with the horsepower and torque curve 2500 rpm lower would make an ideal truck.

You didn't state 4 or 6 cylinder, but anyhoo, but how many miles on the truck? I assume that you bought the truck new on September 3rd, but am not sure.

My need for a full sized truck is zero these days. I would have gladly kept my GMC if it hadn't gone rust crazy. I looked at all the small trucks and thought that Toyota had the best ideas, and I base that on older Toyota trucks. Either way, it's my last truck. Shame on me.

Best of luck with the GMC. I had an 06 that ran like a raped ape (1500, 4wd, auto, 5.3 high output) but suffered from extreme frame rust (never on beach, washed, waxed, inside cement floored garage), repeat brake line rust and repeat wheel bearing failure. Despite all of this, I got better...

The hose didn't begin to weep until I had about 9000 miles on it.

Did my weekly fluid check and find there is a bit of dried coolant on the reservoir end of the radiator overflow hose. I measure the hose and it is .513 in diameter more or less. At the hardware store I found some flat steel spring hose clamps for small hose. I bought two for hose that is...

Detonation at idle is a truly rare occurance unless the engine is severely overheated.

Strange thing about the S mode and the ECT button. I'm positive that my truck would not go into S6 when using the ECT button when it was newer. It has almost 9K miles on it now, it would not work when it had around 5 K miles. Strange. I'm going with haunted.

I'm not sure if I have an odd truck, but my truck upshifts all the way to 5th gear when in S6 and the ECT button is on. 2018 TRD off roadV6. Upshifts from a stop come on a regular basis, and perhaps 5 mph to 8 mph higher than the truck without ECT on and in S6 mode. The only hold out is when...

Yes, just as it did when the truck was new. What changed it to only unlocking the drivers door I will probably never know. Ghosts.

I first thought it was because there was a heavy box on my passenger seat with the seat belt around it. How it changed from all doors open to just the drivers door has me wondering

It was allowed on my first trip just after I bought the truck. Perhaps a new law??
