I have been toying around in a Photo Shop Type program and came up with these... My 2015 Silverado had a Chrome Molding On the door BELOW the middle that I miss... The sides of this 2021 are too boring IMO..

Show us your 2022 refresh Silverado/Sierra
Mcarlo24 replied to mafd2's topic in 2019-2026 Silverado 1500 & Sierra 1500
I LOVE your Truck.. The Color, The Wheels (Size, Color and Style) and lastly the Gideon Interior... The Refresh shows more of the Gideon Leather Color on the Dash and Doors vs the LTD and looks Awesome... Can we Get Pics of the Exterior Back... The Only thing I would do is Color Match the Yellow Chevy Emblem Both in the Front and Back if you have it.. Congrats Bro.. -
Folks.. I am shopping for a new 2022 Refresh Locally and found a Dealer who has the Same Interior and exterior color LTZ LTD and LTZ Refresh... They Both have the same Stock Manufacture Photos so I opened Both but in different tabs... Then I made sure both Pics were the same View Point and I quickly Toggled back and Forth to see the Differences... Man, You can really see how much they changed on the Interior... I thought I would share and Hopefully its Useful... Here are the Links... LMK What you think..

Tonneau cover input 2021 RST
Mcarlo24 replied to ram1067's topic in 2019-2026 Silverado 1500 & Sierra 1500
I am in the market for a Soft roll up cover and narrowed it down to Access Lorado (~$500), Truxedo Lo Pro (~$400) and this Gator SRX (Amazons is ETX) for like $220.. Can you give us a quick update of how yours is performing.. Thanks, Dan -
Ok.. I have an update… My plan to get the (2) dealers to fight it our didn’t pan out because the Closer Dealer Sold the Truck.. Plus they didn’t seam the Negotiating type after their long speech of how they “Are sticking to MSRP even though a lot of other dealers are Marking Up”.. As if they are doing a good thing. Here is the beginning offer from the further dealer for a 2021 Silverado 1500 4X4 Silver ICE with Rally Edition Package and Leather. Their web page showed the following “EPRICE” in this order: MSRP: 58075 Sale Price: 54,961 Customer Cash: -750 Competitive Cash: -750 EPRICE: 53461 SAVINGS: 4614 Very nice right.. So I was hooked and gave them a call to see what’s really up.. Meanwhile I had already gotten Trade in Pricing for my 2014 Silverado LTZ 4X4 with 22’s and 45k miles.. Very Good Condition. Prices from Auto Trader, We Buy any Car, KBB, Edmunds, TruCar Ranged from 28250 to 29500. SO the First thing I found out right away was the 54961 Sale Price Included a 2,000 Trade in Assistance. They offered me 27,500 for my Truck after sending them Pics and Filling out an Appraisal Form. Then they Started Explaining the Pricing to me In a Backwards way telling me the EPRICE didn’t include Freight (Destination) Charge of 1,695, Wheel Locks of 99 and Documentation Fee of 500. The gave me a number of 52,211 (No Idea Where that came from) + 1695 + 99 + 500 = 54,505.. So at the time I am like That’s More than the EPRICE so I tried to get them down and they wouldn’t budge… So that night I decided to Take the Truck to CARMAX to get their price… The offered me 31,000 and that was good until tomorrow 02-18-22… SO I Texted them the PIC of CARMAX’s Offer and they Still Wouldn’t budge… 2 days Go Buy and I was Exhausting Myself Searching the Country for a Below MSRP deal.. I found a few but didn’t have the 22” Wheels or was to far and costly to Ship or Didn’t have Leather, Etc. SO I called them Tuesday 02-15-22 I said Come down 500 more I will buy it right now and they said NO.. Wednesday Morning I Searched around for New Listings and decided to Pop Back into This Dealers Web Page, Looked at the Truck AND…. IT WAS LISTED 631 LESS THAN THE DAY BEFORE!!!! Man, I got that feeling (You know what I am Talking About) and was like LETS GOOOOOOOO! I called them As soon as the OPENED and mentioned it… The Sales Manager said it was some kind of Internet Issue BUT they will honor the price. The plan now it to Take the Almost 3 hour Drive Saturday and finish the deal.. Today Thursday I will get all this in Writing (My Salesman was not in the office Yesterday) before I make the trip out... My Price Should be 53,874 (7.2% or 4201 Below MSRP).. It turned out because I live in NJ and the Sales TaX is the Price of the NEW Vehicle Minus the Trade IN, that Selling to CARMAX for 31,000 and LOSING my 2000 trade In Assistance and the Tax Incentive it would have Costed me ~500 more.. And my 27500 Trade In Price is Actually worth 27500 X 1.06625 (NJ Sale Tax is 6.625%) = 29321.. We will see what Happens Saturday and will follow up..

I finally stumbled across two leftover 2021 Silver Ice Rally Sport Identical trucks.. One 120 miles away has a Promising Eprice of 4614 below MSRP which includes $1250 in Incentives.. I am having them Give me a Quote on my Current Truck as a Trade in... I also Have an appointment today with CarMax to give me a Quote on my Truck... I plan on taking all this info to the other dealer that's 20 miles away and seeing if they can beat (or at least match) the offers.. Stay Tuned.. Dan

Ok All.. I am in the Market Now and no one has posted on this topic as of late... Please take a moment and tell us what kind of deals you are finding... I have been using all the search engines and looking NATIONWIDE and not finding what I am looking for under MSRP... I am looking for a RST Rally Edition or a LTZ with 22" wheels... Getting sick of the Bait and Switch tactics these Search Engines are using to get you to click on Certain Trucks.. They give you an EPrice that Includes all of the Potential Rebates where no one would qualify for all... Thanks for reading, Dan

2014 and up guys with funky electrical issues.
Mcarlo24 replied to sloz71's topic in 2014-2018 Silverado 1500 & Sierra 1500
So I went back to pep boys where I bought the battery 2 years 2 months ago and told the service guy about my electrical issues that I was currently having. So he takes the truck back and they test the battery and it passed. For some reason he decided to go ahead with the warranty and replace the battery with a a better 4 year warranty battery. And so far not one symptom has arised. These trucks are taxing on batteries with all the electrical stuff that they have. Seems like once the voltage gets below a certain number is when all this stuff starts.So like I said before if you are having these funky electrical issues and you've about had it, replace your battery with a good battery. -

Well I'm Back... It's been 2years 2 months since I replaced my battery which totally fixed my 6 symptoms (see pg 4)… Lately, The flickering Lights, Stabilitrac Waning, Loss of Power steering at very slow speeds While Turning and Braking and the A/C Cutting out... Back then I tried the G218 Fix but it didn't work... I had a Bad Cell in my 4 year Old Battery and replaced it.. Symptoms are back so I am having my 2 yr 2 month old battery checked tonight at Pep Boys cuz its free.. . This can be dangerous... I was at stop Sign at a "T" Intersection and was gonna turn right … I began my turn but decided to go Left because I saw some issue up the road with Police.. I braked initially to cut some speed to make the turn and The stabilitrac light and chime came on, the A/C went off and I loss total Power Steering.. I had to muscle the remainder of the Turn and almost went up the curb... As soon as I gave it gas a took foot off the brake is when the power steering goes out... I am at the point where it is always happening... Seems turning, Forward or Reverse, at very slow speeds AND braking is when mine happens... I do not get the Wheel Jerking.... I honestly believe that I would have huge issues If I had to brake hard and try to turn to miss something in an emergency situation... Stay tuned.. -

Extremely happy to say that they have not returned.. I also had an auto parts store test it and said it's fine. The dealer tested it for a fee and said it was bad.. I am convinced its your battery.. Good Luck and keep us posted.. -

So the Dealer looked at it last Wednesday and said it was the battery... The #6 Cell was bad... I was kinda a happy with that answer... So I picked one up on the way Home and Man, they aren't cheap, $175 after getting $15 core charge back... I installed on Friday and so far so good... None of my 6 symptoms have occurred yet... -

Adam... Thanks for the response.. I had the battery tested yesterday and even though its 4 years old, it tested OK.. I am having my Truck looked at today Wednesday at the dealer and we will see what they come up with.. I dropped it off last night and thought maybe I should try to recreate the issues myself becasue I know that's one of their famous responses... I stopped the Truck, Turned on My AC full Power, Put my left hand turn signal on and SLOWLY started turning Left and wouldn't ya know it, the AC gave out for a second and so did the the Power Steering... Stay Tuned -

I assumed this fixed yours.. Did you do any cleaning around this G218 Ground? -

Mcarlo24 replied to sloz71's topic in 2014-2018 Silverado 1500 & Sierra 1500
I have a 2014 LTZ and first noticed the Powring Steering Loss this past winter... Since then I have been intermittenly getting the Service Stabilitrak Notification with Chime, Head Lights Flickering, Park Assist Notification with Chime and most recently the A/C cutting off for a second or two... I also noticed while in my Garage Seeing my Head Lights flickering I tried to use the Window Buttons and The lights went out for a second... So I did the G218 Ground Fix buy Cutting away the Insulation that was trapped under the Terminal at the G218 Stud and I did the Passenger Side one as well... It Did Not fix the Electrical issues... I didn't clean the terminal nor the stud base... Should I and HOW do you do that? Thanks -
That's something I am interested in... Can you provide pics and measurements... Thanks for posting.

2014+ Truck Bed / Tonneau Covers
Mcarlo24 replied to Green 1364's topic in Modifications & Accessories
I can recommend the Access Lorado ROLL-UP cover... Had mine just shy 3 years and it looks and operates like day 1... Its adjustable but I have not needed to do so... Access has a Good, Better, Best system for the Low Profle and Normal Covers... The Lorado is The Best Low Profile... My brother in Law just bought one from Amazon for his Ram and payed in the $370 range... I paid $420 for mine installed 3 years ago... It does flutter a bit but is not noisy at all and I am pretty sure all roll ups flutter... 99% water tight.. You will see a trickle of water after some heavy rain or the car wash... I always have some kind of sports equipment in bed and nothing has ever gotten wet... Hope that helps..
