    Push button start only working after 4-5 pushes... it clicks but no start

    I'm getting mine replaced today, 55k miles. Mind telling me what they charged for it? Dealer by me is charging me $1,009 which includes $207 for "diagnostics". I had to get it towed it there so not a lot I could do about the price, they had me over a barrel.

    Need a new battery

    I need to put a new battery in my 2019. Has anyone put a H8 AGM in their truck. It seems like it would fit but curious if anyone has had success doing it.

    Replacing my TOW mirrors with Power Folding - 10% Cyber Monday

    Does anyone happen to have the part numbers for the door modules you put in your truck when replacing the tow mirrors? I am starting to think I bought the wrong ones. The modules I would need are for standard black mirrors with heat, dimming, and power fold.

    Replacing my TOW mirrors with Power Folding - 10% Cyber Monday

    Has anyone had any trouble using the OBD Genie to add the mirror features to their truck (fold/heat/dimming)? I am getting 4 red blinking lights when the programmer and bypass module are plugged in, power folding worked so I thought I was in the clear. According to the FAQ 4 lights means...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    MSRP: $51,210 Paid: $37,819 + tax + fees The 'internet' price was $37,319 but when I showed up it was $38,319. There were 2 $500 rebates I didn't qualify for. Dealer was nice enough to meet me in the middle plus give me the $1,000 trade in bonus I didn't technically qualify for.

    Transporting Dog

    My lab goes to work, and everywhere else, with me everyday so I got one of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013VPZTAQ It contains a good amount of the hair and keeps him in the back seat. It also prevents him from ending up bunched up and injured on the floor. When there are people in...

    Mirrors?

    Yes, they are awful IMO. I do a lot of interstate driving with heavy traffic and these mirrors make me nervous when merging. I am replacing mine in the few weeks.

    Truxedo Truxport - tension and seal

    I have a truxedo lopro and it is pretty tight. I had to move the adjustment screws all the way out in order to close it. I installed it on a 15 degree day in the snow so I assumed it just needed to be broken in and would stretch a little. The lip on the inside of the tailgate hits the cover...

    DIY Oil Change Shopping list for the 5.7

    I usually punch a few holes in the filter with an awl and let it drain before taking it off, almost no mess at all.

    What Options are a rip-off...

    I am also not a fan of the manual fold tow mirrors, they look and feel cheap. I was so busy looking at everything else on the truck I didn't even notice how awful they are until I bought and put a few hundred miles on mine.
