What did you do to your truck today?

[OPGMC]

Drove it, brought home a new dryer in it. Calculated the wrong gas mileage for 5 years in it.

Them numbers "ARE" giving you fits tonight, ain't they??? ...

Yes, yes they really are.




From the day I bought this truck I believed it had a 22.5 gallon tank.

I'm not getting how that affects your gas mileage calculations.

You calculate gas mileage based on gallons used, so the size of the tank doesn't even enter into it. If you start with a full tank, drive 100 miles and refill it, and it takes 5 gallons you did 20mpg. Etc...

When I find my mileage, I run the tank F to E

In-between full tank fill ups I just make a rough calculation of MPG

Added a set of aftermarket "factory" fog lights. The truck had the wiring already there, so they were almost plug and play. Instead of ordering the new stalk with the switch for the fog lights, I just bypassed the switch and wired them to come on with the parking lights. Found the pair of lights on ebay for $79, $8 for the finishers (bumper trim), and $10 for the add-a-circuit, so total cost was less than $100.

Those look good, Wayne.

Good job Wayne!

Thanks, I am surprised how much light they put out too!

Determined that it was finally time to buy a new alternator. I'm gonna take the 105A out of the Silverado to put it in the S10 (bad one) and then put a new 140A in the Silverado. So $190 later and everything should be good.

Oh, and the S10 is filthy, even for a light color.
