My 02 LTZ had the rain sense wipers and they had a grease issue. Grease would get onto the copper conductive ring in the motor assembly and it would cause the wipers to chatter or stutter as the wiped. The solution when it happened was to take the motor out, remove the housing and wipe the ring...

I'd stick with it despite what others around the net say. There was an issue with certain cars but the 360's never had that problem that I'm aware of.

I did a write up. Unfortunately the photo's are no longer there but it's still a good guide for replacing the pump and/or fan clutch. https://gmtnation.com/forums/threads/how-to-replace-the-water-pump.15639/

When I had this problem with my 02 I had to replace the fill tube because it had a big kink in it. IIRC they shortened the fill tube in later year, pretty sure I got an 05 or 06 from the junkyard that worked great.

I'm getting my son to start using it in his Forester because it can't hurt.

That channel AI's everything. Right at this moment GM hasn't confirmed anything about a 2026 El Camino, despite a lot of speculation, rumours and bullshit.

This couldn't be any more wrong if it tried: the Holden ute was a kit car based on the Pontiac gto as a base

31.5" is the largest diameter without spacers. Honestly not sure with. The UBJ is the issue and if you can clear that, then go with whatever. This was mine with no spacers using a 31.5" tyre. No, it didn't rub or touch even over bumps. These were 265/65/17.

I'm seriously waiting for the Telluride Hybrid to come in for 2027. 35mpg combined is awesome for something that large.

Merry Christmas everyone!

There is, but you'd have to either design and fab it yourself or have someone do it for you. IIRC cost was the big issue with making the rear bumper with the tire mount. I think it was going to be around $2K or more.

From what I remember, the biggest problem they had was finding somewhere on the back strong enough to mount it without it breaking the mounting area. I believe Mike fabbed some rear bumpers with the spare tire mount, but he only did a couple because of the cost.

You might want to check on offroadtb.com the guys there may be able to point you in the right direction. Mike there used to do kits but I'm not sure if he does now.

No idea what, but it sounds like there's something up. Especially with 3.42 gearing on the highway.

Is it all stock? My LTZ, when it was stock, could get around 16 in the city and up to 22 on the highway at 70-75. After I lifted it and put bigger tyres on it I got about what you are now.
