Most V-8 models are rated to tow around 9,000 pounds, but some models get more than 10,000 pounds with an optional trailering package. GM has dropped the long-running 6.0-liter V-8 engine from the Sierra lineup, leaving the powerful 6.2-liter V-8 for heavy towing needs. The rest of the Sierra's eight-cylinder lineup benefits from increased availability of its new six-speed transmission for regular and extended cab models equipped with the 5.3-liter V-8. Also, the 4.8-liter and 5.3-liter V-8 engines have been enhanced, with variable valve timing for improved emissions and better fuel economy. Those with portable MP3 players can connect and play their music collections with the truck's audio system through a USB connection. Standard side curtain and side-impact airbags are welcome safety additions. While GM tries to make a difference in the Silverado and Sierra, the similarity is hard to overcome. The Sierra has different front fenders, grille, bumpers, headlamps, cargo box and taillamps.
Once home I saw that I had missed going all the way to the Gold King Mine. So I set off to find it. Along the way I wanted to poke into Merritt and Indian Canyons. So I followed the road S and turned into what I thought was Merritt cyn. I got into a tight creekbed with a 2-4ft shelf on the right and a 20' tailing pile on the left. It was so tight my left tires were on the tailings. It made a turn in the hill and then went up and the left side fell away and the right became a ditch. A few trees on either side. I went about 40-50' up the hill and decided that if the road was washed out out of sight I would be screwed. So I decided to back down. I started to and my right rear went into the ditch. Due to the dry dirt I couldn't pull out in 4x4. So I hit the compressor and locked the locker and it drove right up! I got centered on the road and backed down to the left to a more level spot and did a 12 point turnaround and thanked my lucky stars I'd bought the locker. Turns out it wasn't Merritt canyon as I hit that later. Where I got into more trouble. I bounced around the trails in Merritt and finally found the last one. It dead ended after a creek crossing on a side slope.
Mike Moran took his second Britpart MSA British Cross Country Championship win of the season at round 5 in Bovington after long-time leader Martin Cox suffered engine problems on his final run. It was Cox who set the pace early on, taking a lead of 17 seconds on run one ahead of Ryan Cooke in his Milner LRM-1. Cox and Cooke exchanged fastest times for the first six runs and the scene was set for a close battle between the pair. Unfortunately for Cooke his car then suffered a burst radiator which forced him out of the event. This promoted Moran to second in his AT 4x4 Challenger with Andy Powell in third. Despite a puncture late on day one Cox held an overnight lead of over two minutes after ten runs of the course. A further seven runs took place on day two. Cox鈥檚 car had been consuming oil at an ever-increasing rate and at the end of the sixth run he was forced to stop as soon as he crossed the finish line as the engine was totally out of oil.
