2006 chevy silverado 2500hd duramax specs

I'm in high school, and I need some help convincing my parents I should be allowed to buy a truck.
​
Here is some backstory
- We live in a neighborhood (not a farm)
- I don't really have a huge need for a one
Truck in question: 2011 Silverado 2500HD 6.6 Duramax Crew Cab
Why I want to purchase it is besides the point, please don't tell me why I don't need one!
​
​
Reasons they don't want me to purchase one
- Diesel is expensive (I'm paying for it anyways)
- Maintenance is expensive (again, I've got to cover it)
- "It's unreliable" (lmao what...)
​
Reasons I think I should be able to purchase one
- I'm 23 minutes from my school (w/ dirt roads to get to the freeway)
- I haul 3 friends to/from school (+ 3 golf club sets during the spring)
- I have a decently well paying, stable job at a local golf course
- I also own and manage a mid-range online jewelry store selling rings + wristwatches
- I already have the money (+ a little extra) for one with 150k miles
- I currently drive a 2010 Fusion Sport with 273k miles, and it's on its last legs
- It's my money
- It's pretty frickin cool
​
Keep in mind, they were perfectly okay with my brother driving a 03' Mustang GT (extremely poor condition, purchased for $2000 in 2018) in Michigan winters while he was the same age.
​
Also:
- I'm doing well in school
- I'm taking advanced classes
- I'm not a little sh*thead
- I'm consistently active outside of school
- 50% of incoming income is being put away for college
- I've gotten no tickets or accidents (yet!)
​
​
Send some help, all answers and general advice are appreciated,
Thanks all!

#Turn10Studios #PlaygroundGames need to add more diesel trucks. Personally would love to see the 2014 Chevy High Country 2500 & 2006 LBZ Duramax 2500 added for offroad races etc. #ForzaHorizon make it happen please thank you!

Hey guys, pretty new to this stuff does anyone have the wiring diagram/ colors to tap into with my LOC at the bose amp connection in a 2017 chevy silverado 2500hd w/ bose?? Tried looking everywhere and found nothing that matched. Thanks!

Budget 200-300$
I have a XAVAX1000 head unit which says it has...

• Continuous Power Output: 20 watts RMS x 4 channels (at 4 ohms, 20Hz-20kHz, 1% THD-N)
• Peak Power Output: 55 watts x 4-channels (220 total watts)
• built-in amplifier (20 watts RMS CEA-2006/55 peak x 4 channels
• will take 4-8 ohm speakers

Is there any 6.5" 4ohm component speakers that would work with this? Or would I have to get an amp?
I am replacing the speakers in my chevy silverado and the door speakers are kind of low and was thinking about putting components so I could mount the tweeter a little higher on door. Maybe on the little triangle part that covers the mirror bolt.
Is this a bad idea? Should I just get 2 way coax speakers?

So I bought a new double din sony for my sons 2006 chevy silverado. I went to the local audio place and got a wiring harness.
It turns out the wiring harness has wires coming out of it that don't even exist on the wiring adapter coming from car. (the red accessory wire) and the (illumination) wire.
After some research it looks like maybe the accessory wire and illumination are controlled/sent over can bus to the factory radio? So don't exist to use on an after marker basic wiring harness?
I tapped into an accessory wire of the AC control below the radio and got it working. I did notice the ding ding doesn't work anymore when opening door. Or putting it in drive with a door open.
I have seen there are things called PACs? That read the data from can bus and would give me back the doom chime and let me not have to tap the AC control accessory wire.
Does anyone recommend a good PAC for the silverado? I don't have steering wheel or bose or onstar or anything.. Just want to get the chime back and some sort of illumination control.
Thanks!

Looking at a 2013 Chevy 2500HD 6.6 duramax with 33k miles on it. They're asking 38k is this a good deal?
Edit: forgot to mention it's an LTZ fully loaded

Notes I'm sure I'm missing a few cars, I just did the ones I liked. I quit watching after Tokyo Drift back in the day, as I lost interest in the story. I looked up the vehicle list from each movie and picked the most unique to add to this list.
Chances are the exact year and model dont match the movie car, I tried to get them as close as possible with what the game offers. Some in-game cars that resemble the movies version better, simply didnt have a good enough tune/design, so I omitted that version. I wasnt going for an exact replica, I was more concerned with the design being as close to original as well as having the closest set of aftermarket parts and the correct engine specs, like AWD, RWD, correct rims, etc. I'm sure I missed quite a few details and could've picked a better design/tune, but I wanted to get this out there so people could critique it and I can update it as time goes. Take Brian's '04 Lancer Evo 8 for example, the scoop above the rear view mirror doesnt make sense, but its part of the aftermarket hood.
Maybe some role players out there can appreciate all this with their forza buddies. I purposely avoided X/S tunes because they would likely not behave or look the part, unless it was the only tune I could find that somewhat resembled the actual movie car. And I spent millions on upgrades doing this, I'm pretty much bankrupt now. I had to have a budget. I don't know how to make money in the auction.
I'm no tuner or designer, so these are all someone elses codes. Some are spot on, others could use a bit of work. I manually searched each cars tunes/designs for a specific phrase or word, like Brian, or F&F, for example. This gave me the best ones to pick from, in theory. I pulled up a movie screenshot or video from Craig Lieberman for most vehicles to weed out the ones I didnt like and narrowed it down from there. Brian and Roman's '95 Eclipse are both AWD in this list, but I believe they are FWD in the movies. I listened to Lieberman talk about how they tried to present the cars as being some sort of supercar, and most of the tunes I came across were AWD, so that is a little hiccup you may come across as well. Letty's '98 Silvia also doesn't have the decals on the hood, but it was the most accurate overall. Some tunes simply wouldn't allow a design to be applied either.
I've been away from the game for well over a year and came back a few weeks ago. It seems there is a bug that you have to apply each tune up to 3 times for it to stick, just keep that in mind if you didnt know. Just apply a tune, and go back and hover over the tune and see if it matches.
I tried to organize alphabetically as best I could by actual make and model of the in game vehicles. I didnt list the movie yeamake/model, just the in game stats, as I figured it'd be easier for someone to see if they have that in their collections before they waste time.
I haven't drove any of these to see how they handle, I was only focused on cosmetics. If you dont like the tune, just remove it and reapply the parts that have been purchased, and then retune to your liking. If you've found a better tune or design, fell free to let me know and I'll check it out when I have time and will update the post if its an improvement.
I noticed that a player that goes by AHA2 made quite a few tunes for the Fast franchise, with realistic stats and looks, so I used most of them. Make sure to give them a like if you agree. Any tune or design that is used here I made sure to give a like. I know it's not easy.
I'm curious which ones are the most popular.

Hello,
Looking for some input here. I have a 2016 Chevy Silverado 1500 LS, 4.3L LV3 V6. It was rough and loud when it idled, so I tore down the engine and found two of the camshaft lobes had been gouged as well as two of the lifters. I replaced the camshaft, the lifters, lifter guides, rocker arms, pushrods, valve springs, valves, valve seals, all the gaskets needed to get to the camshaft (head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, water pump gaskets), and I changed the spark plugs and the wires. I went through and torqued everything to spec, and in the proper torque sequence (according to the Haynes manual) for the head bolts and the oil pan bolts and timing chain cover bolts. I put the timing chains back properly also. For the initial startup after rebuild, I had the spark plugs out and took out the fuses for the fuel injectors and the fuel pump and turned the key to build oil pressure. Then i installed the spark plugs and wires, put the fuses back, and then I went to start the truck for the first time. It started up, but now it still sounds rough!!! See the video below.
It may be a longshot to be able to diagnose from just listening to a video. There is some squeaking from the belt, which I'll figure out, but why is the engine still sounding and running so rough on idle? If I push on the gas a little a smooths out, but on idle it is rough.
Should I be looking at replacing the fuel rails, fuel filter, fuel pump?
If you listen to the video, seems like a sucking sound almost. Is this the vacuum pump?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

So recently Matchbox has been remaking certain color variations for older vehicles most of which from the mid 2000s era up to 2016. Some examples are the many different vehicles from the Retro series like the Park Ranger Land Rover and most recently a throwback five pack set with 2 vehicles from the mid 2000s era: The Hummer H3 in grey and the now returning casting of the Jeep Rescue Concept in black. These are ten of my favorite color variations that I loved most of which from my childhood (90s-2000s) and I want them to return and some of you might agree with my decisions:

1. The Croc Zoo Ford Bronco and/or Chevrolet Avalanche from 2009 5 pack: Because this set specifically was one of the sets I vaguely remember having as a kid especially the Bronco and Avalanche, the only reason its on the lowest rank is because I don't specifically like the decals and its best to just keep this one as a memory as in not bringing it back as mainline or in a five pack.
   
2. 2008 Basic series dark green Porsche 911 GT3: This color variation of this Porsche might be my favorite color of this specific casting of this Porsche of all time. Other colors of this said Porsche are also pretty cool and I hope to see more colors of this Porsche and maybe even returning colors in the future.
   
3. The Maroon colored Chevrolet Suburban from 2008 Vacation 5 pack: This one isn't actually something I had as a child rather that I knew somebody that used to have a 2001 Chevrolet Suburban in an almost identical color except the bumpers were blacked out.
   
4. Tracks Recon Chevrolet Avalanche from a 2008 Dino Mountain 5 pack: Believe it or not, the modified baja Volkswagen Beetle from the same five pack is returning very soon in I believe a Volkswagen styled series of vehicles, so why not bring back my favorite from the set, the Avalanche.
   
5. The Police Bomb Squad International Armored car from a 2007 Police 5 pack: SO this one I have mixed feelings about and almost put it in number 8 or 9 on the list. On one hand I am like yeah bring it back, It is one of the most realistic looking SWAT vehicles Matchbox has even done. (or at least more closely resembling the one in my district) On the other hand I am like no.. It wouldn't be the same since the said casting back then was metal body and the new modified casting is plastic body metal base.. And they removed the sun visor.. WHY?! I dunno.. I think im more pissed about the sun visor than the plastic body.
   
6. The snow camo Hummer H2 from 2006: This one I thought was a pretty cool vehicle.. That's all.
   
7. Now here is where the ones I want the most starting with the yellow City Services Chevy Van from 2009: This one is one vehicle I used to have as a child all the way up to like 13 or 14 years old before I somehow lost it.. I think I lost it in a river but cant really remember. Anyways this van is very closely resembling of the Government work vehicles in my district.
   
8. Another Chevy Van in Green from 2008 Classic Cars 5 pack: This Chevy Van for me perfectly gives me those 70s retro vibes with the design and all, Also the previous color from that year in purple also gives me those vibes.
   
9. 1999 Chevrolet Silverado white park ranger from 2007 Mountain Heroes 5 pack: This one... Boy this one is a major Major nostalgia to me.. I used to have it for one.. Some State Park I used to go to an hour away from my home had VERY SIMILAR vehicles like this with the all white with green stripe.. And I think one of the vehicles they used was a 1995 GMT truck so.. just 4 years off of this one.. And I think this color variation for me fits well and looks very realistic towards Park Ranger trucks.
   
10. White 2007 Honda Ridgeline Beach Patrol from 2009 Beach Patrol 5 pack: My number one pick.. Why? Many reasons.. A. I had the whole set when I was a child and LOVED to always take them to the beach every time I went which ended up with me losing 3 of the five eventually.. B. The beach I went to used to use 2007 Honda Ridgelines.. Except they were fully red.. C. Because they just recently in 2018 brought back the Yellow Beach Patrol Hummer from said set which I thought it was cool.. And this Ridgeline is just nostalgia to me.. Really is..
    

Bonus: I know they probably wont EVER bring this one back due to many licensing issues and what not but if there was a set like a WHOLE entire set I would like to just.. Come back fully would be a 2005 licensed Ed, Edd N Eddy 5 pack.. This show was one of those shows I loved to watch (and still do time to time but not often) and I would love to see those vehicles come back.. But they wont.. ever..

I have a 2003 Chevy Silverado 2500HD and i’m wanting to install a cold air intake and a turbo inlet elbow, do i need to get a tune also? How much does it typically cost?

A mechanic shop near me wants $1,732 to replace my AC compressor due to a bad clutch and condenser due it being hit by something and leaking… are they trying to take me for a ride? Or is this a fair price? (This is with aftermarket compressor and condenser and not factory acdelco which would’ve been more expensive) idk seems a bit outrageous

Can a 2003 Yukon xl key work with a 2006 Silverado ext cab?
Backstory: my dad is about to buy a 2006 cat eye Chevy 1500, when my dad got the Yukon he had a few extra keys made bc the previous owner only had one key. Are the ignition in the Silverado and the Yukon the same?

In my opinion, MCLA has always had a lackluster car list relative to its predecessors, and a roster closer to MC2 and MC3 would have been vastly preferable. A greater focus on low-end tuners, SUVs, unique exotics, and overall variety.
I believe this would be very close to an ideal roster for MC4:
43 cars and 3 bikes added in base game + 15 cars and 1 bike added in DLC = 58 cars and 6 bikes in retail MCLA
The following additions will be made:
-I'm adding two additional bike slots: one for the base game and one for the police DLC
-I'm adding five additional car slots: two for the base game and three for DLC
-I'm adding two additional car slots for uncustomizable Saleens as DLC: a Saleen S121 and a Saleen S331 Supercab
-In total, there's 65 cars and 8 bikes

Thank you for reading.

So I'm having a bit of an issue. I'm trying to install some aftermarket tail lights on my 2006 Chevy Silverado. There are the LED type and for some reason when the truck is on the brake lights don't work. But when the truck is in accessory mode, the brake light do work. I've bought two different pairs and both of them are doing the same thing. But when I put in my regular lights everything works fine. Has anybody had this issue before or can offer some way to fix it?

I own a 2006 silverado 2500HD. She's my baby, and I'm sad to say that I fear she's running out of time. This is my first pickup truck that I bought off a good friend so he didn't screw me over. However now I'm looking at buying another used pickup truck because I've sort of started a small business with my current truck.
