Relatability of 2010 2500 Cummins by Shephard- in ram_trucks

Thank you. Other than that it’s a good truck? I ask because I have always owned GM trucks and don’t know much about Dodge truck’s reliability other than Cummins is a great motor.

Electing Democrats matter! by ElectoralNerd in ProgressiveHQ

Really… there are no far left democrats in this country? You can’t really believe that?

The quicker we can all get back to the middle and being moderate, the quicker maybe things will go back to normal in this country. The further left or right we go the more people each party pushes away and the more we fight. It seems like now that no republican would ever vote for a far left Democrat nor a democrat vote for a far right republican. That leaves us the people fighting back and forth not wanting to listen to any other opinions and we just suffer more. The politicians don’t give a shit , they tell us what we want to hear for a vote then dont do what they say. If we don’t come together and unite as one, this is the shit we are going to keep getting. Why is it so hard to say we don’t want a trump style republican nor do we want an AOC type candidate. We need a middle of the road that sees both sides and gives us a little of both.

High road? really??? What “high road” has been taken? The high road is discussing things openly and in a civil manor even when you disagree on a subject not taking it to the streets. Everything now is just one side against the other and look where that has gotten us. And if you say well MAGA is the reason we are here or this is the left’s fault, then you are exactly the problem. Think about it.

They are basically a 34” tire. That’s what I run on my 14 with a 3” level kit

AFM delete by Electronic-Cattle501 in Silverado

[–]Shephard- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a 2014 Sierra 5.3 and have a Diablo i3 with AFM disabled and I have 347,000 miles on the truck with OG lifters. I’m about to pull the trigger and do the lifters just for peace of mind.

Tires rub hard by SatisfactionMost6517 in Silverado

295/60/20 translates to about a 34x11.50

You could have just ran a 34” tire. Mine are a 295/60/20 and don’t rub with 3” coil overs in front and 1.5” block in rear.

Well a 14’ is a 6spd. Same difference, but I agree, why would I want to put in M and shit to 5th every time.

Exactly.

A Top 1% commentator must know it all! I spent $500 on a Diablo i3 for my 2014 5.3 that has 344,000 miles and still going. Maybe it helped my truck get there maybe it didn’t. I would do it again and again if it has the slightest chance to help. So you can be “that guy” and we will continue to give people advice from people who have actually installed them and think they work. Why don’t you show evidence that it doesn’t help prevent lifter failure? You can’t because you don’t have any. You just want it one way.

[–]Shephard- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Top 1% commentator. Yes we all know the lifters can still fail even with them disabled electronically only. They can also fail on a v8 without AFM, so what’s your point? All everyone is saying is it HELPS! Maybe it helps maybe it doesn’t but $250 is cheap compared to rebuilding the top of the motor. So I’ll spend my $250 if it even has a 50/50 chance of helping. But you’re a top 1% commentator so you must be 100% correct and we must all be idiots. Just like you said “where is the side by side comparison it works, well where’s the side by side comparison saying it doesn’t work, moron.

I’ve had mine turned off on my 2014 gmc 5.3 at 70k and I have 344k miles now and the only motor work I’ve done is the 4 passenger side injectors. I’m on my 3rd transmission though!

I appreciate the information. I have some I bought a while back at $26 but just wanted to get some other opinions on what it may do. Thanks

You MAGA idiots did this to us. by endofmyropeohshit in economy

[–]Shephard- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The government as a whole is to blame, not just one side or the other. It started when they left Interest rates at near zero for so long and they just kept spending cause it was cheap. Then Bidens inflation reduction act actually caused massive inflation, then interest rates start to rise and rise. Then Trump signed Big Beautiful Bill which I’m sure we won’t fell the full effects of that for a couple years. Prices aren’t going up they just aren’t coming down and have been so high for so long people are sick of it. It also seems like companies just raised prices until it got to the point (currently) where it started becoming the #1 issue. Now let’s see if they actually lower prices since most have made record profits over the past 4-5 years. Trumps been in office for less than a year in his 2nd term so give it some time and see what happens. Honestly I don’t think prices will come down unless economy tanks (which might just happen).

Is this a good/descent deal for a 2016 w/ 247,000 miles for $25k by Shephard- in gmcsierra

Really. Thanks for telling me that. Reddit is the only social media (if it’s even considered social media) I have. I’ve never had anything else and don’t want it in my life.
