Chemstrails causing dryer conditions?

I believe chemtrails are a real thing, live in Reno, and saw a lot of them being sprayed in my area over summer. This fire season has been extremely bad, big ones, and a lot of them. There is newton’s third law, yin and yang, and the idea that in nature there are reactions to every action. A lot of times we want to take an action, but don’t understand the unintended consequence that will come. I have a hypothesis that if chemtrails are real, by creating moisture collection at the cloud level, we are pulling moisture from ground level along the way, and creating dryer conditions and worsening fire risk. Haven’t heard this idea expressed anywhere, so I figured I’d share any see if anyone has any thoughts on my suspicion.

Badland Offroad Jack & Stands

Just got the Badland 3-ton offroad jack and 6-ton jack stands from Harbor Freight, and used them for the first time. Planning on using them mostly at home, they are heavy and bulky to transport. Plan to get a good bottle jack set up for offroading. They are advertised as offroad because they can be used off pavement and have high lift specs. My truck is factory lifted with 33’s but I plan to eventually lift a little higher and get 35’s, and I needed the jack extension already so I would say this was a worthy purchase.

Checked out Verdi Peak and Crystal Peak Mine

Went to Verdi Peak and Crystal Peak Mine in Verdi, CA recently. Great area to explore and offroad. Awesome views and you can find quartz crystals at the mine. Trails aren’t too bad, saw a Subaru Outback coming down from the peak.

Shot with Meta Vanguards. I was reluctant but they are pretty awesome. I’m not a get out my phone and take a picture kind of guy, but they make it too easy to take photos and videos now. Great way to safely get POV videos while driving.

❤️ my Bison

Bought my Bison In November 2025 and have been loving it since. I was looking at a GMC Canyon AT4X AEV, but didn’t like the interior, wanted more room for the family, and the extra towing capacity the Silverado/Sierra offer. The Sierra AT4X AEV is awesome, but more than I wanted to spend, and I think the Bison front end looks better. I can’t say I have any complaints to date, other than some loose wiring harness inside one of my driver side panels that knocks during left hand turns, but I’m lazy to take it in to service and hesitant to let them take of my interior panels and not have them fit right after. I’d say I have already used the additional features that the standard ZR2 don’t have, but need to find some off-roading buddies so that I can go harder and not worry about being stuck solo, then I’ll really test them.

Curious how others with GM/AEV collab trucks feel… are you happy with your purchase? Do you have anything specific you love, or any complaints about them? What made you choose what you did? Do you use the additional offroading features, or are they just there in case of emergency?

Here is my one of my favorite pics of the truck so far, out near Mammoth helping recover a recovery truck that got stuck.

Anybody put 35’s on their Bison?

I’m considering getting the kit by AEV. Anybody used this or any other lift kit and have feedback? Curious how crazy the process was, if it was worth it, how much fuel efficiency is lost…

Are the 1500 ZR2 Bison powertrain breathers raised from the factory?

Haven't gotten under the truck yet and looked for them, and finding conflicting info online... anyone know if the breathers are already raised for safer water crossings?
