• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Watch it until the very end.:shocked:

2015 GMC 2500 Duramax Runaway Engine Pulled up to open gate, engine started to rev up, turned off ignition, engine never shut off. CRAZY Runaway! Tachometer red lined until it destroyed itself. Odometer reads 3378 miles! Still not sure of all the damage done.

 
Seen this happen on other diesels. Usually caused by engine oil in the fuel system. Bad seals in intercooler, blown seals in turbo. You can shut it down and it will still run. By the looks of the smoke, definitely oil in the fuel system. Shame it happened on a new truck. Looks like GM is going to have a heavy warranty bill.
 
Your opinion. I have a 2014 Impala and a 2004 Silverado. To each his own. We can still be friends though. :roflblack:
 
you mean its not supposed to smoke like that??? :roflblack:

I have a 2003....290k miles on it......needs injectors....when its in a pissy mood its looks a lot like that...:roflblack:
 
Bummer..!!

it's like a self destruct mode..have seen it happen..could have done more to kill the engine but it would only do it again....:yikes:

Something is not right

At about 48 seconds and before it exploded the hood is ajar. I think this was a set-up, just my opinion. :shocked:

Hey guys, everyone cannot buy the best truck out there. If everyone bought a Ford, there would be no competition Without competition the Ford F-series trucks would not be where they are now. I just hope GM can catch up, never in their history have one the the big three gotten this far ahead of the other two. Just a few years ago each would one up the others just about every year and it needs to get back to that. GM and Fiat need to spend some major bucks and develop a truck and power train for the next decade. An all steel 5500lb behemoth that rumbles along at 16 mpg empty is not going to cut it in the future.

That said, I'll not likely replace my 7000lb F250 until I wear it out. That would be many years in the future at the rate I am going. So 16 or so mpg it is for me. Hard to justify a $50,000 pickup when there is nothing wrong with the one I have, despite being 13 yrs old.
