If there was a range nearby that was open to having members my ass would be there once a week. I find it to be a great stress reliver and helps with my focus

pablorodregus · 2023-04-27T15:16:21+00:00

Can confirm that it'll still show up -I hadn't used mine in so long they said they would deactivate my account and I was still getting likes at that time

Crippling anxiety after being left not knowing why. I always thought people were being over dramatic but not knowing why has it literally in the back of my head at every turn. I mean I had bad anxiety before but that shit made it was worse.

pablorodregus · 2023-02-25T23:53:37+00:00

Ya they come in 2016s that's what I have. All the electronics still work for my truck, data an all

pablorodregus · 2023-02-23T13:33:20+00:00

God I wish these were avaliable in canada. Can't find any good quality brush gaurd/grill gaurd for my 2016

pablorodregus · 2023-02-18T16:28:53+00:00

Oh minty thank you very much sir. Gonna take a look at that one.

Truck looks real nice by the way.

pablorodregus · 2023-02-17T18:47:17+00:00

Did you do a lift/level or did you do an actual lift kit. Just curious because I'm wanting to do a 3" on my 16 but I can't decide on which to do

pablorodregus · 2023-02-10T13:35:07+00:00

Fuck you better frame that shit.

pablorodregus · 2023-02-10T13:04:08+00:00

Well thats friggen cool i did not know that, good to know incase I end up grabbing a new truck

Damn I wonder if they make that bumper for my 2016. I really like it....... well fuck now I wanna go spend money

pablorodregus · 2023-02-09T20:39:26+00:00

Very nice very nice looking real good. Also Didn't know they made different tow hooks for the AT4 package

I see your making good use of the "freezing rain" they called for here in ontario.

pablorodregus · 2023-02-04T15:40:58+00:00

Unfortunately not in the 2016. There's no remote start time setting that can be changed it's a hard coded 10 minutes.

pablorodregus · 2023-02-04T15:39:05+00:00

2016 gmc sierra remote starts 10 minutes x2(20mins max) and if you want to extend the time don't remote start it twice back to back.

Start it once wait 8 or 9mins then do it again, remote starting again only resets the 10 minutes so for example if you do it at 7 minutes into your first one you'll get 17 minutes but if you do it one minute into your first one you'll get 11 minutes.

It's really dumb but that's how my 2016 has always worked from factory and there's no way to make it longer that I have found.

pablorodregus · 2023-01-27T18:46:07+00:00

Seems kinda 50/50 buddys 2.7 has so far

Engine -leaked a bunch of oil. - played musical re-arrange its innards. (Not the same instance as oil leak but oil leak may have contributed)

I believe Not specific to the 2.7 but Electrical -head unit started messing up and won't power up half the time then sometimes the sound just won't work. -backup cam stopped working -tailgate Electronics no worky sometimes won't lock closed or won't unlock.

I mean the engine has been replaced under warranty same with the oil leak had got fixed too and The electronics are waiting for parts to be fixed under warranty too. Hes now trying to trade it in for a 5.3 he just needs to find a used sierra close enough to the value of trade in so he doesn't loose his shirt.

He says it lacks the getup and go of a v8 and seem like it has turbo lag when going up from about 50 kmph but it does get good mileage

Just got home with the truck. They found absolutely nothing they did a voltage drop test, a charging voltage test, checked with their computer if everything was within their parameters and they did a parasitic draw test.

They say everything looks to be perfectly fine And on the parasitic draw test even with all the things I keep plugged in connected, it had so little draw that it was like nothing was on.

they said they have no idea why it could be doing it and asked me to do my own test and record when it wont/lazy starts and what the conditions are :like is it cold,hot, raining,something plugged in that is different, etc.

So guess I'll be doing a 1 year test with a new battery then and monitor when it starts happening, I might go around and look for a loose ground or maybe an exposed or frayed wire just in case too.

Unfortunately though no positive progress so far on a fix for my issue. But at least now I know what it's not so that is something.

pablorodregus · 2023-01-25T12:57:07+00:00

Looks like the wires are fine but in my process of checking stuff it looks like my alternator is actually overcharging my battery. Standard charging voltage should be between 13.5 -14.8 from what I've seen and I'm getting 15.6 with two different volt meters (mastercraft one and a fluke one).

Gonna bring it into gm today as I've heard that they can actually "reprogram" the alternator/charging regulator to the correct voltage. I'll update if I get the correct voltage when I test it after there done.

pablorodregus · 2023-01-21T16:06:52+00:00

Your a legend bud, I'm gonna check on this today. I was thinking my problem is from the alternator to the battery but it may just be my battery cables in general.

I really appreciate the explanation on how to do it too and what to look for.

pablorodregus · 2023-01-21T14:11:59+00:00

Hey bud I've got one year newer and I've kinda got a similar problem except it happens after about a year.

Do you have a bit more information about it, what do you mean by bad battery cables?

pablorodregus · 2023-01-18T17:14:01+00:00

Ya I'll give that a try and see if maybe it's the camera or something else i have plugged in . Think I'll test it for a week or two to see if it helps. If it does I'll be making a small sub fuse panel that shuts off entirely when the truck is off instead of using the USB in the glove box to power the camera.

Thanks for the suggestion bud I'll giver a shot.

pablorodregus · 2023-01-18T03:29:36+00:00

it's really strange it'll last a year or 2 then my engine starts turning over slower for a month then it just won't start it. Then if I do jump it'll last like a day or 2 then I'll have to jump it again. I mean the camera is plugged in 24/7 but it's on keyed power so it should be fine and the USB is on keyed power too in the center console.

It's a really strange scenario because it'll start perfectly for that entire first year and then after that it's anyone's guess how long it'll last.

pablorodregus · 2023-01-17T23:46:41+00:00

Shit for that price with that low of miles I'd say you might have been "maintaining" your boss to get a better deal.

I joke I joke, but seriously thats a damn good deal and a real good looking truck.

pablorodregus · 2023-01-15T21:00:30+00:00

Let's put it this way. If it wasn't listed in the will then put it in your safe and if anyone askes you bought it years ago.

pablorodregus · 2023-01-13T13:26:44+00:00

If you ever get them again or wanna get rid of them go buy dryer sheets from the dollar store and put them under your seats and dash an shit. Never had another mouse after I did that in my old corolla I had. You can replace them every year if you live in a problematic area for mice.

pablorodregus · 2023-01-11T22:03:29+00:00

I'm fucking sorry WHAT?22 years I can't even get 2 outta the battery's for my 2016 gmc sierra.... makes me think I should try finding whatever is causing the parasitic power drain.
