🙋‍♂️ What Did You Do To Your Lightning Today?

That one wasn't even on my radar. So you are saying they have music totally separate from the videos? Streaming like the traditional services? Will investigate.

Yes and an app [YT Music] specifically designed for music player functions.

Tinted front windows:

Looks great! Front leveled at all or is that just the driveway angle messing with me?

I, ummmmm, added a PRO for me to her XLT

You have enough juice in that garage to power your whole neighborhood!

275/60r20 116t nitto recons. No level - just the max towing package. Tinted windows - retrax pro. The tires IMO make this thing look great in person. I can’t get over the fact it’s the same size tire. Makes it look like it’s at least one size bigger. And seeing it in person the aggressive sidewall really add to the look. I was Really thinking I should have went with a 2” level but after seeing it complete I I’m perfectly happy with this set up and hopefully won’t see very much difference in range. Been driving it like a race car in the rain today with 1 pedal and the recons are doing great in the rain.

Looks to be about 12lbs heavier per tire vs. the stock all seasons or about 33% more rotating mass from the tire. Let us know how you do with efficiency / range loss! Also, how big of a hit did you take to acceleration?

I really can’t tell any difference in acceleration. Almost feels since there’s more grip /heavier it doesn’t slip as much/ especially in the rain. torque still causes a little spin of tires but not as much - a tad louder but not much/ or annoying. These are the 116t- not load range E so they are 47 pounds each ..roughly 7 pounds heavier than stock? vs the 55 pds of range E? I think my stock tires were 40 pds

Did you have the Grabber A/S tires? Those were 34lbs each

Great plate!

See you around fellow lightning bolts fan!

Looks great. These are the tires I want except in 285/55/r20 116t. I also personally prefer the opposite (less aggressive) sidewall. I need to do more burnouts to wear out the stock all seasons

I have the Bilstein front coil kit at 5 of 6 clicks. Levels it slightly and improves driving experience. Hopefully they will come out with a lightning specific version soon.

I was debating those as well and am curious to see them on the truck. Please post picks when you do

Great question. I never looked. I went to the dealer , drove it around for about ann hour around town, then told them to do the add ons. Drove it around after they finished. I do know I have the #8550 . Maybe I have some old pics I can zoom in on

Yes and in the music app you can switch to video tab to see the music video for the song you are listening to.

The Premium YouTube Music Users are provided with high-quality bitrate, i.e. 256kbps AAC. It must be noted that 256kbps AAC is equivalent to 320kbps CBR mp3.

I cannot recommend against this enough. Yeah, you lose the ability to flip up the 2 seater. But the inconvenience of walking around the truck EVERY time you need to put the baby in or take him/her out of the truck would be really annoying. You want the baby on the driver’s side for convenience. Get out of the truck, open the rear door, grab the baby. Get back to the truck, open rear door, click car seat into place, close rear door, open driver’s door. Now imagine doing that but walking around the truck each time?

Actually, the safest riding position when there is one kid is the middle position in the second row seat. That way they are inboard and away from the side of the vehicle in the event of a side impact. In a recent Munro/IIHS video, a comment was made by IIHS that rear seat passengers were at greater risks because of the attention given to protect the driver in a side impact (you will notice that the t-bone and pole tests focus on the driver side of the vehicle).

I also speak from 30+ years experience with the fire department.
