2019 GMC Sierra First Drive Review: GM’s New Truck in Expensive Guise, With Unique Exclusive Options | High Quality Fuel Injection Nozzle

With the introduction of a hybrid interface, the unit can switch between mechanically and electric power. Users can thus achieve a higher average engine load and reduce fuel consumption by running only the necessary engines or generator sets dependent upon the operation mode, the company said. Reduced maintenance costs can also be achieved by running fewer hours on the main engines.

For initial EFI operation, FiTech recommends running the engine with its existing ignition system for ignition timing. Then, once the fuel side tuning has been finalized, then if the owner prefers, ignition control can be converted to the FiTech. This is a good plan because it minimizes the number of potential errors that could occur. That’s the next step for Buck’s ’56 but we just couldn’t wait so that will come later. No drama is anticipated.

Everybody screws up at some point, no matter how careful or skilled they are. Do I know how to brake at the limit of adhesion? Decades of riding motorcycles have served me well in that regard. Do I have absolute confidence that I will do so perfectly every time and under all possible circumstances? No.

My neighbor had a 2011 Ford Edge and had the brake booster failure issue. Dealership wanted to charge him bc vehicle was out of warranty. I did research for him and had him contact Ford. Ford did eventually pay him back after he went through 4 of those boosters! He finally after 4th one traded it off for an Acadia Denali.

Steering is a pretty big deal. Wonder if software update is the answer or the coverup? Hard to say with GM. It took at least 2 tries to get everyone’s ignition spring done to be sure it was correct. And don’t forget they actually sent notices to people who had already been killed by it to come in and get it fixed. Not that either should happen but ill take a seatbelt that might spark a little in an accident over intermittent steering. Posted by: Clint

Both lane-assist equipped rental cars I’ve tried where the system is on by default have bordered on dangerous to drive when the system introduces an unexpected “nudge” in the steering, in the rain at 70mph on a twisty highway. Absolutely absurd. That was a CX5, the rental XC90 was much the same, on twisty country back roads driving to my brother’s past dark, smoothing out the corners by approaching or putting a wheel on the line made the system flip out and try to “help.” Stupid.

While four cylinders may not seem like enough to power a big truck, Chevy says the four-banger delivers 310 horsepower and 348 pound-feet of torque. The company also promises comparable payload capacity to the 3.3-liter and 3.6-liter V6s offered in the F-150 and Ram 1500, respectively, as well as 0 to 60 mph time of less than seven seconds. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rates the engine at 20 mpg in the city, 23 mpg on the highway, and 20 mpg in a combined cycle.

If there is a truck that will remind you of the classic box style back in the ‘90s then it would be the Syclone. The truck came with low ride height that made it unique as compared to the other pickups. This truck had a great performance; sprinting to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds something that was made possible by its turbocharged 4.3-liter V-6 engine.

Apparently the plaintiff didn’t know how to respond to this because according to the judge, the "plaintiff did not address this issue in their reply."

Sometimes when the car was in park and the parking brake wasn’t used, the gear would slip into neutral and start rolling.

Major improvements have been promised by Atlas Copco after the company launched its fifth generation of its flagship QAS generator range.
