i recently got new headlights for my 99 buick century shit box with 285,000 miles (but i do the maintenance...i mechanic) if your car uses 9005 or 9006 bulbs (high and low beam respectively)..... 9011 and 9012 bulbs will drop right in.... and are MUCH brighter they wont work correctly in EVERY headlight design..... but they do in a 99 century and they are hard to find.... probably have to special order the 9011s (but its worth it) they started out as "HIR".... reflecting IR light back into the filament to make it glow hotter (therefor brighter) but now its just a normal halogen bulb 9005 is capped at like 5400 lumins IIRC.... while 9011 has the highest legal limit of all halogens ......forget the number

[@matte8441]

Ethan Benson You’re right. I’m a Toyota dealer mechanic and the Toyota Tundra is significantly more expensive to fix than their cars. Toyota V8 engines, although bulletproof, have Euro car level repair costs when they do break. I’d personally buy (and did buy) a BMW over a truck. But then again if people have the money to blow on a truck and run it, and it makes them happy, then why not, it’s their money.

This generation of GM's pickups were a smashing success. It's what I consider keeping it simple while staying in line with modern times. It's not aggressive, it just looks tough, simple and ready to go. I really like to call this the revamp of the GMT800 trucks. The GMT900s didn't really carry on the same energy the 800s did, but the K2XX trucks picked up the slack and nailed it. Every day I'm seeing less and less GMT800s on the road, which used to be insanely common and still are to an extent, but now those trucks are being replaced by K2XX trucks. Owning and driving both GMT800s and GMTK2XXs all the time, I completely understand why this is the case. Both platforms share a lot of the same energy and I believe that's what people like about it so much.

infotainment is a lot bigger deal to the mainstream market than auto enthusiasts will ever realize

[@voided3]

@@chadtvu It's true. The first comment people make on a car revolves around how their phone interfaces with it, probably because they spend more time texting, calling, and skipping through songs/podcasts on a playlist than paying attention to the road. Hence why the next comment people make about a car revolves around autonomous safety features so they can have a false sense of being slightly safer ignoring whatever is happening around them. I would be happy to own a car with no stereo at all, personally. There are too many idiots on the road where I live so focus is essential. That said, the base model 2019 Hyundai Sonata we are leasing came with Apple CarPlay. Shockingly, I actually kind of like it, only because it makes Waze bigger and louder and I don't need a junky phone holder clip anymore.

But does it come in BROWN?

Yes, but it's labeled as Autumn Bronze Metallic pre-2018 and Havana Metallica 2018-present.

The people who buy these don’t like anything or anyone brown.

Of course it's not lifted. The 2500 with the Z71 package is the perfect height.

I don't even come for the cars anymore. I mean, I do, but now its the philosophy. The feelings of nostalgia, deep thinking, and ramblings of a man. I just love listing to Mr. Regular talk. He has that nice, soothing, comforting voice, its even better than Markiplier. Also "That's one log name."

This video makes me want to write an essay on the Sociology of Pickup Buyers. The thing is, how it is here in Texas would be completely different than in other states or regions. One thing that tends to hold true no matter where you go, people tend to modify their trucks more frequently than any other category of vehicle. Mild as it may be, bigger tires and a leveling kit are modifications and I don't consider that truck stock.

[@longshotmaster]

I notice this in the northeast with trucks and Jeeps

[@rrrandommman]

I normally don't like the Silverado, the proportions are wrong but this one, lifted just enough with the correct sized wheels makes it look, because it is, practical and usable for its purpose. And I love that it has a stronger gearbox and engine, well done USA, you made a homegrown modern truck I want.

[@casychapin4647]

The silverado my parents own still but baught a year old in 2000. Fits your description pretty well. A work truck a family sedan and a road trip machine. It's got almost 400 thousand miles on it now and the engine and transmission are still working like they should, my stepdad is serious about regular maintenance and he does it all himself. It wars highway at 70 all day and night with driver swapping out and sleeping in shifts. I remember when the extended can backseat was huge and my brother and I would play on surface made of blankets laid over the footwells full of bags and a cooler. Going to see grandparents going to an air show. It's been a 4 wheeler too. Never lifted, it's been down plenty of hunting trails. If that truck is a symbol of America. I wish more people saw it for it's positives than the stereotype of negatives.

Hey just a correction around 9:50 diesel truck emissions systems have DPF= Diesel Particulate Filter and SCR= Selective Catalyst Reduction

[@ianac88]

And DEF= Diesel Exhaust Fluid

[@cleverkitsune4302]

Both of which rob horsepower and destroy engines faster

[@GradyHouger]

Delete!

[@cleverkitsune4302]

@@GradyHouger shouldnt have to delete..these systems are more pollutive than just dumping to atmosphere (def fluid is terrible)

[@digitalrailroader]

ianac88 that is what Selective Catalyst Reduction is, DEF is actually the reagent used by SCR.

Mr Regular , I would like inform you that while power-stroke (although the all but the 6.7 were designed and made by Navistar International , a result of The international Harvester company switching from Farm equipment to medium and heavy duty trucks)and Duramax are just names, the Diesel engines used by dodge are manufactured by Cummins inc . That is all

[@Wbfuhn]

GM makes some good vehicles, or parts if you know what to look for. But advertising lies don't go unnoticed once people start checking what you do and look for what's out of place. Reminds me of another industry, or companies if you want to get specific. We've all heard the jokes, but there's no arguing that Toyota and Honda make the most reliable vehicles. If you really want specific brands you should look for specific year models. There are good years out there under GM. Edit: The Allison Transmission is from a company named Allison, obviously. Because GM is ordering transmissions from another company that makes specifically transmissions they have to include a label stating this. Ford is also doing the same thing so yeah. Quality transmission.

[@terrencejones9817]

For decades Allison was part of GM. They were spun off a few years ago, but they still have production and engineering sharing.
