  1. tech that drove my car seemed to have the same thoughts...he said on the early build 2019s they didnt use atf that met the specs and demands of the new transmission. once it was discovered they changed it at the factory level but never issued a recall for the affected trucks. wierd but wasnt gonna make an issue out of it. agian after the flush the improved difference was immediately noticeable. in fact i towed something last week and felt a difference there too.
  2. Tech at dealer took for it a drive. Immediately knew it needed a flush. Got it done while I waited. I noticed an improvement immediately. Thanks everyone for the input
  3. did the fluid flush...immediate difference
  4. got a 2019 trialboss....47000 miles. recently i noticed a shifting issues. seems more apparent at cruising speeds, like around town, residential areas. its not a clunk or jerk but almost like a delay or lag. so i called dealership yesterday and happen to talk with the service manager and he told me to bring it down to have it reprogrammed. i initially was a little perplexed and questioned him and he said hes not seen many issues with the new transmission and that with how heavily integrated these trucks are with electronics thats his bet on the issue. he said most issues that he comes across of this nature are a software update, not an actual mechanical issue. for curiosity i drove the truck down the street in manual mode and i felt like it was not as apparent. Any of this sound familiar to anyone or have any experiences with this. thanks all
  5. how many miles beofre the flush ? im at 47000, dealer told me i needed it last oil change...part of the 45000 maintenance package
  6. honestly i love it...its def throaty, and a lot more aggressive then i anticipated.
  7. have a 5.3 and did the afe pipe yesterday...look me 20 min...i found that the clamps had to be in the right place as to compress the slotted ends...ill check it in a few days to make sure nothing loosened up.
  8. Finally got to the muffler delete today. been debating with myself for months about, finally got the piece of pipe i needed and pulled the trigger today. took me about 20 min. stood at the rear of the truck and started it...HOLY ****** !!!i kinda just giggled....not knocking anyone but the video and sound clips dont do it justice. its deep, real deep, very throaty...screams on a cold start, def noticeable at reg startup. great rumble and progression when getting on it but when cruising or even normal thru my neighborhood its not loud at all. the cost vs reward cant be beaten.
  9. i have a magnet. its located in the flat space to the left of ignition about even with gas pedal if u reference ur picture.
  10. looked this up and it looks interesting. might give it a try. couple thing i found is that many people have the same issues, some said it was corrected with firmware updates. not sure where you guys got this but i found it on amazon. might be the route i take so if i do have an issues it will be easier to return.
  11. had the same issue when i first installed my cover...eventually things settled in and loosened up and no longer have the issue, tailgate opens fine...not that i use the feature that often. another thing you will notice is that if u have the bed packed and theres pressure against the tailgate it wont open as well...youll need to push against the tailgate to release the pressure to allow the mechanism to unlock the tailgate. sometimes i fell like some of the features with the new tailgates and with the pro tailgate on the gmc...they seem cool but aren't practical for guys that use their trucks in a more traditional way.
  12. no rubbing or trimming. no spacers but i am running an offset.
  13. perhaps but im running 33x12.5 R20 toyo MT
  14. i had em on my 2015...my reviews are mixed. i always had to open my cover a a little to full open the lid on the swing case. the cases locked but only way to lock them to the truck was a traditional keyed lock, whicj meant that had to be unlocked and relocked every time i wanted to swing the case open. they blocked some of the emitting bed light and on the 2019 looks like it will block the lights completely. with that beeing said they were a great option to keep items like hitch, tow ropes, straps, tie downs, etc. easy to access, able to have with a tonneau cover and didnt take up alot up bed space
