My 2001 was analog only and "went away." I did some research on OnStar and gen 1 and 2 up to 2003 are analog only and gonezo. Gens 3 and 4 2004 to 2006apparently are both analog and digital and can be "adapted" to digital for $200. Current all digitals are gen 6 AFAIK. I guess I'm in need of...

You know it! Another 30+ sustained evening with gusts over 40. Shoulda bought that windturbine a couple of years ago - I could have retired by now!

Very funny! But I'm sure they want Tom's money, too! I did a bit of research and my 2004 is probably an "unadapted" gen 3 or 4 and will never connect to Onstar. I never had more than the basic "safety and security" package on my 2001 and the one and only time I needed it they did not deliver...

Well, they've been saturation advertising for the Onstar "Push to Win" sweepstakes. My Onstar died with the change to digital in my 2001 DMax. My 2007 HHR was bought used and didn't have Onstar. My "new to me" 2004 gasser has Onstar. I'm in no rush to have Onstar, but thought I might endure...

I'll take lucky #13, I've gone gasser after my injectors went in the '01 DMax on New Years Eve.

It Just Won't be the Same I've pulled a donated rental Genie for the last two years to a June shoot here in Idaho http://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/showthread.php?12077-Did-a-Little-Pulling-Today But, if I get tagged for hauling it this year, I'll have to pull it with the 2004 6.0 since...

Shiny mag type or just oversized? I bought a nice set of wide steel rims with oversize tires for mine as a package at a very reasonable price a few years ago from Buggies Unlimited in Kentucky. www.buggiesunlimited.com

Done, in my nightly devotionals.

I've been using 1/2 ounce per gallon for a couple of years now. ND SAE 30 is oil that is not designed to burn, 2 stroke oil is designed to burn, maybe a bit more lubricity, but more ash, carbon and varnish.

And since we've "gone there," do you know the difference between a USA biker and a Muslim biker? USA Biker: (left) Muslim Biker: (right)

I think he had to build the scooter to tote the girl!):h Imagine that pair on a regular Harley - but it might make the grade:

I wonder how much fuel it drinks? That's a pretty small tank to feed 7 cylinders. Very cool.

Just turned 58 today. In the words of Mickey Mantle: "If I knew I was gonna live this long, I'd have taken better care of myself!"

Mine is a non-CAT "48 state" model. I cut out the OEM oval muffler and spliced a 4" Magnaflow straight-through muffler into my OEM 3-1/2" pipes way back in 2002.

I used Stanadyne additive regularly in my 99 6.5TD Tahoe, because it had a Stanadyne injection pump. I've used FPPF Total Power in every drop of fuel that has been burned in my DMax. I'm not sure that Stanadyne additive is the "be all to end all" just because of the GM endorsement - it was...
