Mine didn't come with a block heater, so I'm thinking about putting one in.
John
I'm gonna put my 2500HD on hold pending release of the KL5 option for the 6.0L.
Going down to Phx to put $4k down on a f150 CNG Bi-fuel and buy a refueling system ( www.fuelmaster.com ) for my house on Tuesday.
Done the block heater in other vehicles. Easy if you can get in there. Get the factory version, some of the aftermarket block heaters have wimpy cords. Also buy a heavy duty timer (1.5kw), as you only need the block heater on for 3 hours. Won't hurt to leave on longer, but saves on electricity....
Guess I should forget about a conversion if you have to harden the valves and seats.
...Ryan....it got cold here...and some snow/sleet up north where I was....but it went soon after....was out scouting for deer.....it's gonna be a good year!
...and remember when you said the tow/haul didn't really work good?....and I said when you have a real load it does...and you said you had a real load...(a whopping 1000 lbs)....but still said it didn't seem to do anything?.....well....i was right again eh?
LOL
...with 3500 lbs...it acts as if the truck was driving dry...

..BTW...a 2500 Badge on a 1500 ain't gonna make it a 3/4 boss..
hehhhee

Chevy Silverado Xtreme LTD.
Sounds kinda nice eh?
Ryan
Dean
your forgeting i put on that sticker on the rear window and my tail light guards i even had to drill into the rear end for that one.
Its only gonna cost me about $50 to make this truck even more unique than anyone elses.
Kinda like jay lenos 6.0 in the 1/2 ton

ok...weekend report. spent saturday and sunday night in a very small tent at the elkmont campsite of great smokey mountains national park. got down to about 29-30 degrees on saturday and 25 degrees last night. COLD!!! the wife was with me though and we toughed it out. great hikes etc.
now, to trucks...saw more tundras this weekend than i've seen since they've been on the road. funny thing: more were driven by women than men. none were towing anything. saw many (100+) new model silverados in the last three days with most towing or hauling something. boats, fifth wheels, campers, etc. gave a guy at the next site over our leftover fire wood this morning. he was driving a '00 2500 longbed. came over to look at my truck. went over to look at his. gave him some firewood and bade him farewell. smokey's are beautiferous right now. next week should be great. take care!
bco
Think about it Silverado Xtreme hmmmm. Just think.
Also no tires this wk again. You think your dealer can get me some???
Do any 4 wheeling? I got some snow driving saturday night and sunday.
Ryan
yaaawwwnn....
LOL
heeeheheee
$50?!....I dropped more than that on some Guinness and Bass tonight!
- Tim
LOL

The only thing worse than Ryan's futile attempt at humor, is that ya'wl keep egging him on before he shows any substance.....Now Tim's was original cause we knew there was NO WAY he would unload the 2500 for a, a....burb?...and a 1500 at that!
Ryan don't take this personal like. I have been reading this since back in January and this one takes the cake. Hope you get an A in creative writting course...I really do!
Ok I guess I am guilty too, but just my .02 worth
Matthew
Bowtie with the words xtreme and attatch it to my tailgate under the silverado badge (hopefully itll fit) Hence
Silverado Xtreme
Ryan
Don't forget the "No Fear" stickers.
2 xtreme on the back window matches the color great
Ryan
Ain't my truck....do as ya want I guess...
....of course you need some bad boy stickers too!
- Tim
Ryan
Ya missed the boat boss!!
...the extreme badge should make up for it though...
LOL
(just kidding....do what makes ya happy)
- Tim
I missed the boat??? I dont want to be like every Joe Schmoe. I have a truck that doesnt look like everyone elses. I see way to many pewter/indigos around. If i got one id get it minus flares. The tahoes that color scheme look very nice.

1. Airaid or K&N intake system.
2. Catback exhaust system.
3. Throttle body spacer (don't know if this is available yet).
4. Granatelli or other MAF sensor.
Any input/real world experience anybody has with any of this stuff would be greatly appreciated. None of this stuff comes cheap (I really can't believe the price for the Granatelli MAF!), and I don't want to spend a bunch of money for something that doesn't make noticeable improvement.
2. Catback...borla or magnaflow. If you do this one, item #1 is a must. I'm in the process of dumping my gibsons..gonna go with these...
http://jwfcs.webprovider.com/index.htm
3. TB spacer...good theory...save your money and forget this one.
4. Granatelli MAF...mixed opinions on this one...I like mine.
5. To put it all together...don't forget another $300 for the Hypertech III unit.
6. These work good also...

i went to look up that air filter...thought, ooh...looky here, $13...down from $22 retail. maybe i'll get two or three. go to check out and they're charging $8.88 S&H??? what the???
grrrrrrrrrrr
you save a whopping $0.14 by ordering online? you can have freakin' tires shipped to your house for $25/pair! and that's like 50 freakin' pounds! what's up with $9 S/H for a filter? i tell them what THEY can HANDLE. i hate car manufacturers!!!
...can you tell i had a bad day?
bco
Oh yea finished paying off the truck today woohoo.
Ryan
...wonder if it's a supplier prob or something else?
- Tim
