Keep an eye onthe tire width. I had the same size on my last truck and replaced with the Michelin AT2s. Loved the tire but they were considerably skinnier then the GY that they replaced. I didnt like the look.

$15K discount and $3600 on my GM card led me to my 2018 Sierra. No brainer.

Mileage decrease with chin spoiler removal
crepitus replied to Sierradude's topic in 2014 - 2019 Silverado & Sierra
I dont drive enough highway normally to compare. I may just cut it in half and call it done. -

I am having a hard time making a decision on what to do with mine. I really dont like the way it looks and am going to OBX in a few months. I take the truck on the beach and think that plow might cause problems. I just dont want to sacrifice MPG for looks. -
I cant see how they could make the seat less comfortable then the 2018s. I hate my seat. My 2008 with 100k miles are 10x better.

I came from a 08 Sierra and I would h ave to say the ride was much better in that truck. I have had my 18 about 6 months now and nave gotten use to the stiffer suspension. I am thinking the tires might have a big role in the ride. My last truck have 20" Michelin's and was so smooth. I put 18" winter tires on it about a month ago and it have noticed a bit of a better ride.

Had my 08 done with this stuff. It wont stick to the way and runs. Pretty much useless and ugly.

I have a winter set of 17" factory rims and tires from my 2008 Sierra. Since winter int he northeast kills rims I was wondering is my 2008 17"ers will fit my 2018 Sierra?

In June I upgraded from an 08 Sierra DC to an 18 CC SLT due to a growing family. I was contemplating waiting for a 2019 but could not pass up the deals they were giving on the 2018. I have to say I am glad I made that decision. Now that the 2019s are hitting the lots I am happy with my decision. I am just not feeling the new body style. The interiors look very similar. I actually think my 2018 looks nicer both inside and out. Time will tell. Maybe the 2019s will grow on me but right now I am happy with my choice.

Question on New 18 Silverado Negotiation
crepitus replied to outrag1's topic in 2014 - 2019 Silverado & Sierra
Im in the Northeast as well. Sold my 08 Sierra privately and flew out to Laura in June. Deals were crazy. Got my 18 Sierra CC SLT for $32.5 after GM Card points No local dealer could come close. They were off by $7k-8k. -
Where exactly does the shim go on trucks with adjustable pedals?

2018 Sierra SLT or wait for 2019
crepitus replied to crepitus's topic in 2014 - 2019 Silverado & Sierra
Got her. Here she is next to my 08. Love it. I did the test drive and she was smooth up to 70. On my 950 mile home I noticed a vibration at 78-80 and then it clears up so I'm thinking it's a tire issue. Will bring it to my local dealer for a road force balence and go from there -
Well I got her... 14 hour 965 mile drive home. I varied rpms for the first couple hundred miles dropping it into 5 and 4th at times. I would downshift and load it up when exiting highways and get on it hard when merging. When I hit 400 miles cruise went on but I would vary speed. Best I could do. Wish I could off heat cycled it but no time. She got a 2 hour break after 10 hours on the road. I love it

I will be dumping the oil when I get home. My usual routine for new cars. 1000-2000 mile oil change.
