    That aluminum loves lots of amperage, like 3x that for steel. Hope this helps.

    Tailgate wont close

    Oil all moving componets, check youtube vidios. When I bought my truck it would only catch 1 side, the problem was in the linkage, accessed thru the center handle.

    stuff that catches my eye

    Apples and Oranges Yes you can buy a clapped out 100k mile truck with a rusted out body, brake and fuel lines, and put a ton of work or $$$ into it. My point is most trucks around me are not worth the effort or expense. You have to have a southern or western truck to start with. Slim pickens in...

    stuff that catches my eye

    I dont know where you think you can buy a truck like that for $2500 but I will take 1 and you can mark it up to $3500. That truck is not my cup of tea, with a 454 5 speed with almost no options, but I am sure it will bring $5000- $6500. Waiting for you to show me the 4 trucks, simular, low...

    Bargain Brand or Name brand?

    I switched to synthetic in my 99 Yukon and it has fixed a lifter that would tic for 15 seconds on startup in 20 degree or so weather ! It is cured, I am guessing the oil has more detergent in it. But maybe the P.O. didnt change it often, it only had 50K miles when I bought it in 2015.

    stuff that catches my eye

    Enjoy your youth ! My first Great Grandson will be here in August ! My GMT 400 days started in 1989. I was a Tool and Die maker. Our wages where on par with nurses. Now nurses make $45 an hour, T&D $25 if you are lucky. I worked with people that made $100K in 1965. A lot of them worked 60- 100...

But in the spring (about a week) I get out the Alabama 96 SLT ECSB with 222K and the first thing I notice is the feel of the miles in trucks. Steering, brakes, ride etc. This is...
