  1. My biggest complaint about my 2019 when I got it was that the back end felt "light." I live in a rural area and drive probably 35% gravel roads. My 2017 I could run 60mph down a rough gravel road if I wanted to and it would stay straight. My 2019 was scary on gravel at first and I would notice it even on bumps on the highway. I have since leveled my truck and put airbags on the back axle and it seems better than it used to be, but I may have gotten used to it to in the 12k miles I have put on it. GM must not have tested off the highway much with these trucks.
  2. I have two black labs and have always used the hammock style but I hate how cramped it makes my crew cab feel with it connected to my front seats so I generally have it tucked under the back seat. I have been looking hard at Carhartt rear seat covers but cannot get myself to bite the bullet and buy them. I have them on my Polaris Ranger and if they are anything like the ones on my ranger I think they would work awesome for dogs.
  3. Just got my setup installed this weekend. Running an Ready Lift 2" lower strut leveling kit in the front, and firestone air bags on the back axle (for towing our camper, but also raises the back end up a little at the 5psi minimum). 20x9 Pro Comp Series 40 wheels with -12 offset and 4.5 backspacing. Lots of caliper clearance with no spacers. 275 65 R20 BF Goodrich KO2's. Slight rub at full lock. Had to trim about a 3" square off the top inner corner of the mudflap to eliminate it. Overall really happy with the way it turned out. I was worried -12 offset would poke more than I wanted because I drive on a lot of gravel, but the tires tuck pretty much into the wheel wells still. I had to order a stubby antenna since the stock antenna drags on my garage door going in and out now.
  4. I took my 18X9 0 offset XD misfit's off my last truck and they fit on my 2019 silverado. I honestly didn't even know this was an issue until I ordered new wheels this week and started looking at tire sizes. I checked caliper clearance yesterday and it is extremely close but not touching. 1/8" or less I would say. I am hoping that the Pro Comp 40 Series 20x9 +6 offset wheels I just ordered fit my truck when they show up. Fingers crossed.
  5. They are symettrical other than the direction of the slots, I put them on like that because I thought it would catch less wind and prevent any noise from wind whistling throught the steps. They are backwards technically yes.
  6. I have them on my truck, here's a side pic [/url]
  7. You'll like the RB10's! Just be aware that they have a heavy texture on them that holds dirt. I love mine. They do a great job at protecting my doors, rockers, and even the box side in front of the rear wheels!
  8. Alright guys, so its been awhile since I said I was gonna post before and after pics of my Go Rhino RB10's on my '14 Double Cab Silverado. I finally got around to getting some pictures taken, I'm sorry my truck is a mess haha. Like I said before, I drive on a ton of gravel which is the only reason I bought the boards in the first place. I can tell you that they help a ton with rocks that used to hit the bottoms of my doors, and they protect the bottom corners of my bedsides too. If I had to name one thing I dont totally like about them its the texture. You can see in the pictures how it holds dirt and dust and makes them a different color then the truck. Its not a huge issue, just sort of bugs me. All in all very happy with them and would reccommend them to anybody who had rock chips in their doors like I did and wants to stop that. Before: After: Trucks pretty dirty here! My family owns a remote resort on an Island in the northernmost part of MN. Its almost 100 miles of gravel to get up there and back so my trucks relatively clean in this pic compared to usual!
  9. I had the same issue with my RB10's. Haven't called yet, Its not a huge issue but when you pay for five hundred dollar running boards you shouldn't have defects like that...
  10. Just got my Go Rhino Boards installed today! Meant to take an after picture but it got dark before I finished it up, so I'll post the before and after tomorrow. So far I'm happy with them. The only reason I decided to put boards on is living in the northernmost part of Minnesota I drive on almost 500 miles of gravel a week and my doors were taking an absolute beating. The boards were really easy to install. I probably spent an hour and a half putting them on by myself, and wasn't rushing by any means. I think after I get the truck leveled I will like them even more. The finish on them suprised me, I'm a little bit on the fence about how textured it is, but it seems tough enough to stand the rocks they are gonna see in their life so I can deal with it. I got them from CarId.com, and they were very good to deal with. They price matched another website and shipped within 24hrs of ordering them. I'll post some pics tomorrow
