Added TST 507 Internal TPMS to 3500HD

After trading a few months ago for a 2016 Chevy 3500HD I was surprised to find that GM does not install TPMS on the tires of 3500HD's....had always had them on 2500HD's....since I have the TST 507 Flow-thru TPMS on the fifth wheel, I ordered and installed 4 of their internal banded sensors on the tires of the 3500HD....programmed them to the same monitor that is on my dash for the camper sensors and now I'm monitoring TV tires and camper tires all in one system.

Filled with diesel, checked the tires and fluids. Expecting 10plus inches of snow in this water front community on Saturday. People here cannot drive in a little rain. Now hunker down and wait. We now have blizzard warnings, that's a first for me. 4wd is a must.

Dealer just did one of the recalls on my Ram crew cab diesel (2013). Replaced the catalytic converter. Waiting for parts to replace the alternator.

I just installed a Lund Power Step. I love that thing. Makes it much easier to get in, and I'm 6'4". The ladies love it.

Yep,traded in the Jayco, but still a site team member of that great forum. I had that unit for 7 years and it was a solid unit, was never back to a dealer for anything. But we wanted a RK floorplan inplace of the bunks. Nothing available from Jayco dealers that suited us and this Coachmen had what we wanted, reasonably close to home, and a good discout to MSRP. Time will tell if its good as the Jayco but so far construction and quality seem similar and no issues after a 4 night trial. As for the subject of the thread, my Chevy is currently getting buried by snow so all I may do to that today is broom off snow.☺
