Not So Pro 3

Yes Adam, The Duramax was a joint venture with Isuzu. Still don't like aluminum heads on any diesel.

Ok slacker-than-i, you can enjoy your Chevizu.
They seem to run just fine.
I dont have a diesel truck of my own.
This Chevizallinational is ok, just rides like a buck board.
If I ever do happen across a 1 ton I can afford, it'll most-likely be a Ferd with a Ferd-built diesel. Not the Navistar ones. Just sayin.
Everybodys truck but the one I like sucks, and everybody can have a good ole GFY on me.

It is what it is Sean, the vehicle doesn't go very well without it.
The oem i/c is alloy core with crimped plastic tanks. I've ordered a larger AM full alloy welded replacement. It should be more reliable, as well as provide cooler charge air temps when its working hard (towing the boat in summer mostly). The cold side of the i/c actually has a temperature probe that writes back to the ecu and backs power off if it senses too much charge air heat, the AM cooler should reduce the frequency of that happening.
And lets be honest, we're all here for moar powa.

Just remember my Isuzu friend. The high dollar all aluminum jobbers fail too. Here are two that have been repaired and failed again. And these are good heavy cores/tanks.

Two country-style ribs, two snausage links, and some mixed veggies here.
I dont have the werms.
I have the metabolism of a Tree Sloth.
Other end of the spectrum.

@redline4 must be riding a snowblower up and down the beach in FLA as it snowed a touch tonight.

I did get a ride in on the scoot today after some rain this morning.

Did the Stork deliver you a baby?

 

[redline4]

Did the Stork deliver you a baby?

I asked, he specializes in delivering GFY's.
I tried to persuade him to move north as I feel he could be beneficial to WI, but he declined.

 

[Stump Shot]

and ford didn’t even years ago when Mazda was the same thing ?
This isn’t the 70s
And you don’t turn wrenches on them to know what ones you can actually work on without taking the cab off

I said it doesn't matter.

Why not Holden?

Coz Isuzu made the Duramax, which was subject de jure at the time.

I have a Ford, and a Honda. Currently. Not Cray Cray invested in any brand tho.

 

[redline4]

Something awful powerful at work here.



Doesn't matter. Even if Ford was the "cleanest" of the big three, pulling the plug on foreign plants and building new at home here.
Some Cadillac's and Buick's are being built in China and imported here. How long before the entirety of GM is that way? And how many will follow suit?

Cadillac CT6 PHEV (electric hybrid) and Buick Envision are the the only imports from there.
Buick builds many of the same models as here, but with different names for sale there. Buick is one of the leading selling cars there.

They're an improvement tho. And that's pretty much my ethos. Make it better if you have to do something.
