Still haven't changed the oil or put the new exhaust gasket on yet, need to do that. My temp gauge in the cluster stopped fully working, don't know if the sensor went bad or if the gauge finally went. Likes to stay at 100 maybe go up to 120 or bounce between the 2, all the other gauges are a little wonky and like to bounce around. There is a slightly less wonky cluster floating around in the garage I'm going to swap in to test. I have a F250 in the garage that has been taking all my time, once I finish detailing it I'll be able to mess with Kaye and order my front brakes. On a side note I really like driving the burb, she's fun to drive and although not fast she gets it better than my last truck.
The F250 got picked up today, the guy loved it.
Got the oil changed, didn't look bad but I don't know when it was last done. Checked the rear brakes while I was doing stuff to her, the rear wheel cylinders weap a little which would be contributing to my crap pedal feel, the drums and shoes were in good shape surprisingly. Ordered all the parts for the front brakes, should be here early next week. Decided to go with the rear disc swap, saving up for that next. When I get that stuff she'll also get all new brake fluid since it is due for a change. Hoping to go to the junkyard next week to get some trim pieces, a better set of sun visors and an overhead console if I can find them.

Pick up an overhead console for 20$, it's in pretty nice shape.
The front brake parts came in, might install them tomorrow night or Thursday.

My vote is stick with the GMC grill...but I'm biased!
I agree but then again I got a gmc grill too lol.
Well my advise is look to see what you like better. Personally if you like chrome, stick to chevy oem. If you like less chrome more grill go with gmc. Unless you swap it for a chrome billet lol. I had a chevy grill forever. I remember it faded and no longer holding its shine. After a few testing grills I was most happy with my gmc grill. Plus after my crash it was easy to replace and nobody noticed I swapped it. Benefits of a black oem grill lol.
