2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500: Recall Alert | Fuel Injection/Nozzle

The next stop for the ’56 was Westech Performance where chassis dyno tuner Ishmael Candia first checked for WOT opening and then started the tuning.

(5) Suzuki RM-Z450. These are the same forks and valving as last year; however, they don’t ride as low in the stroke and feel plusher. How? The rear shock spring is lighter—going from a 54.0 N/m in 2018 to a 52.0 N/m spring rate in 2019. This allowed the rear to drop down and take weight off the forks to balance out the chassis.  

I know, I know, we’re all way above average drivers with cat-like reflexes and 20-10 night vision and resent having to pay for these mandated safety systems because they will limit our freedom and we don’t need them anyway.

Following the finalisation of the Konecranes’ worldwide acquisition of Terex MHPS, which in effect is Demag Cranes, Hoists, Material Handling and Ports Solutions, the two global crane brands will be sharing their considerable combined knowledge and technology, becoming a substantial force in the lifting business in sub-Saharan Africa

Of course, it’s worth mentioning that many Colorados have been through hard core off-roading without blowing their side curtain airbags, and that the incidents mentioned here likely only represent a tiny fraction of trucks on the road.

I really do wonder if some of the people calling us skeptics “Luddites” in a knee jerk fashion have much experience with these systems they’re advocating for. If I try one of these systems that works great, I’ll say so and maybe I’ll change my mind. Currently however, it feels like we’re in the equivalent of motorized seat belts when it comes to these systems. Good intentions, but they are intrusive (downright dangerous in some cases).

ABS and lane departure protects the driver of the car too, or are you saying that your driving abilities are such that you can do a better job of modulating wheel lock up than a computer than can do it on an individual wheel basis?

(1) Yamaha YZ450F. Yamaha’s Kayaba SSS suspension, front and rear, is the best setup of 2019. It has been the best since 2006. For 2019, Yamaha added a stiffer shim stack to allow the forks to stay higher in their stroke, especially under heavy braking, yet feel plush. They are devoid of harshness. These are the perfect coil spring forks.

LIDAR sensors based adaptive cruise control system is expected to remain the most dominant technology type

While all of this is cool to speculate on, it’s good to remember that just because GM has applied for a patent, it doesn’t mean that anything will come of it.

After talking with Matt, I was able to get in touch with the truck’s owner, David Kostura, who confirmed Matt’s account, and sent me the photo above with the description “I’m heartbroken.”
