Sup everyone....how does your truck handle with this intense summer heat. I'm from South Texas, and every day is about 105 degrees out. It's about 11:30 at night, and my truck says it's 95!!.....but anyways..my truck pulls just as strong in this hot Texas heat.....what bout' your RIG???
Agree on the HOT; I'm in College Station (So. Cen. Tx.) and we've seen 100+ for many days too. The truck - 05' 1500 Laramie with tow pkg., SC performance tune, Purple Ice in the radiator and the temp. does not move past 1/2 even in this suffocating heat - wish I could say the same for myself***
I live a little bitty community called Magnolia Springs in East Texas. We are seeing 100+ now with a heat index of...Hell. lol. My truck handles the weather fine. I've just noticed a little MPG drop, but I think it's because my driving routine has changed. Dust is everywhere though. My driveway is a half mile dirt road and my truck looks like a rocket flying level to the ground with all of it boiling out behind me. haha. I'm just dreading the love bugs in a few months...
A little better here in DFW today. Supposed to be hot again tomorrow though. By the way, if you haven't tinted your front windows yet it makes one hell of a difference. Finally got mine done last week.
Only took me a year to get around to it. Go figure.
