Pellet heads!! What's up today?

The chevy 3.6 is 305 hp in the '16 model, 308 in the '17's.

 

More hp than my old dodge 5.3 V-8 had.

 

Honda is only 280 hp.......

 

Then you would notice a difference.

 

Heck the Honda already has great power-I like more power

Both now have 6 speed trannys so its a draw there

Edit: Colorado has 8 speed ?

 

Dam, I am going to have to drive one of these Colorados..........

 

Nothing to loose.

 

6 in my '16, '17's have 8 speeds. 4th-6th gear in mine are overdrives. I don't know how the '17's are set up.

 

Smokey...
What OS ya gonna load on the new puter ??

 

I have CRS but I thought you had a Toyota Sub ,not a Chevy

 

Until I am happy with the box it will be Virtualbox with several Systems including Winblows 10 and several versions of openSuse Leap including 43.3 Alpha

ETA: For sh**s and giggles I might try generating a new DOS/VS release 34 supervisor under Hercules if I can find everything on my backup system. I can somewhat remember how long it took on the 4meg IBM 4341 M2.

 

I have one in the Trailblazer. Got it about 4+ years ago, and still started strong all this winter. Got good reviews when I bought it.

 

One of the projects I had to get done before leaving for training next week. Sewn by hand and basically just enough to keep them on - wouldn't survive regular usage. The training is Harley Officer Training, so I need to be identifiable by chapter while I'm there.

 

Best snow storm ever!!!

I was a freshman in college when that storm hit. I got out of a presentation and was drinking smoothies outside in a t shirt by noon!!

 

IHP was a bad boy and was slacking on the EP cleaning. Was burning really chitty last night. Didn't even use it over night. All cleaned and burning good now.

 

except

 

Except about $38K. Its been nice having no truck payment for a few years. I'm afraid I would like it and get the urge to trade in

EDIT:
HA !! You read my mind-I posted before seeing this

I can see me talking myself into upgrading-Hmmm, the Honda had 160K, the tranny hiccups once in a while and those trannys are known to not last much past 100k while not being rebuildable, it needs tires and a windshield to pass inspection this month, My Honda is still worth decent $$ for trade in and that wont last much longer.

See

 

Ive never had anything more than a 5 speed. How does the extra gears translate to speed/power and smoothness of shifting?

 

Funny how our view of a major storm changes over time ...

 

Oh and the torque converter vibrates under light load at mid speeds (35ish mph), This is a known issue for Honda for a long time that doesnt really cause a problem-just drive it that way but its annoying. I had a previous vehicle where the dealer replaced the converter twice and it was coming back a third time, now I ignore it on this truck.
