I have a 2004 Z71 half-ton crew cab. Almost daily the transmission will clunk a few times when driving normally (not fast) while it is upshifting from 1-2 or 2-3 or downshifting from 3-2 or 2-1. I had it in once and they said this was normal since the 4X4s need more play in the transmission. My previous 2 vehicles were an S10 pickup and S10 Blazer, both 4X4s, and neither did this. Anybody have this issue? I also can see a little wet spot on the rear differential where the drive shaft connects. No gear oil on the driveway or hanging from the differential. The service guy said this was normal. I'm coming up on 30,000 warranty expiration and want to get these fixed if needed. Any thoughts are appreciated. Is there a HSOforum that deals with Silverado issues?
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
