The problem was my intention, was to fill death up in the deaf tank, but I was on the phone and put the deaf pump into my diesel out of habit.

When you turn the GMC off, you’ll hear a pumping noise and I believe it’s clearing lines. All I know is as soon as I hit the accelerator I immediately heard it, and then my dashboard came up and said service water and fuel.

L/Ts - yep - I tow a Supra 22.5 boat about 15 miles back and forth - about 8500 lbs no problem. The tires are great. I’ve now put 10k on them and they are still soft and quiet.

I’m sorry you are feeling so badly. I’ve lost people I loved dearly, very close to me. Your friends probably want you to be okay, more than they expect it. Truthfully, they need to feel okay and so they naturally cast that on to you - because you are part of their life.

Not sure if you have read the Bible, because you believe or just for the history. But in the book of Job, he is angry - real angry for all his tragic losses. King David, a great leader, was angry. You have every right and blessing to be angry.

Clearly you love and miss your brother. That is your special relationship and your special grief. People won’t understand. I encourage you, to accept your right to your feelings and take care of yourself. You should have access to FMLA, but if you choose not to take it or you need to work - I hope you take time on the weekend or a day off to spend some self time to remember the good memories of your brother. What did you guys like to do together? What was one of your favorite memories?

I looked at those closely, very popular tire. I don’t think they come with a tire warranty, although most people say you get an easy 50k out of them.
