Welcome to the IHoP v.2

Recommended Posts

What year was it to have only a 4spd?  Dad's new GMC 2500HD has a 5spd I think.  

 

HD's have had 6 speed manuals and 5 speed autos since the '01 redesign. Half tons were 4 speed and 5 speed manuals from the '99 redesign until the '07 redesign.

Oh damn Matt2 I'm on the mobile and accidentally deleted your post about the iPad being the same price as the nexus 10. No warning or anything on the mobile skin.

And I should clarify , they both have 16 GB but the nexus 10 has a superior processor, more RAM, a vastly superior screen (~800p compared to 1400p), way better internals overall. I'm also comparing this to the iPad 2 the current iPad starts at $100 more.

Think I'll get out of Jury duty on account of having classes? If not, I have to cancel classes, and that will blow.

you are exempt from jury duty if you are a student

I also don't consider anything a media front end unless it also controls Radio& Pandora. I can have my pc play Bitches Brew and when finished switch to Sex Pistols Radio on Pandora without delay.

Curious how you do that.

HD's switched to 6 speed autos in '06 or '07.

I didn't think GM had a 5Lxxe tranny?

All TBSS are 4L70E. 4 speed time bombs. Not sure what is in the Silvy SS (05) but I'd bet it's a 4l80/90 but still only 4 gears.

2007 Escalade I believe was the first truck to get the 6 speed in the 80e variant.

Those are Allison trannies. GM has 4 or 6 speed auto's. Next year or shortly thereafter you will see an 8LxxE

Same way I control my lights, security panel, coffee machine, grill etc. Home automation software and a custom gui. I seriously don't think there is an off the shelf media player worth a shit. WinAMP makes Apple anything look like complete trash, but it still sucks donkey dick.

 I'm assuming you put the Micro SD Card, into a card converter to insert it to the PC.  Does the card converter have a tiny switch on the side that says lock? sounds like you have your card locked.

Very nice!  Is that the Gray Mica or Magnetic?  They don't do the Red in the SE anymore, but I'm stuck buying used anyways.

Thank you, I think magnetic. I will have to double check for sure.

GM's Kappa and Sigma platforms used the 5L40/5L50

Test drove a Silverado SS today and a TBSS. The silvy for two reasons. 1 to answer J's question and yes in every aspect it drives better than the Tundra. And 2nd to see if a coil over package on an Escalade would give it any hope.They both have one UBER problem which I forgot how bad I hated in my Silverado. The rubber fucking seals are god awful. Wind noise is butt fuck bad. Seriously not livable. Sucks donkey dick because the 6L is actually reasonably impressive in both. Exhaust note was nice sounding, but droney. :(Also made me realize I have a problem with 4 speed transmissions. bleh

Sean, I respectfully disagree. The Tundra is far superior in terms of comfort quiet ride and many other thing to the Silverado and the F 150. Which model Tundra have you test driven? I coulda swore you said you have not touched one. The Silverado is a night and day diference and I think if you drove one you would see it.

Bullseye from 1,000 yards: Shooting the $17,000 Linux-powered rifle

ARM CPUs, lasers, and Wi-Fi make firing this weapon an experience like no other.

Interesting.

Looks like it could be fun to try, but I wouldn't drop 17 k on it.

Not a bad price when you consider a McMillan will set you back about 15
