Just take them off and get them painted to match

I would recommend you download the smartphone app "Acar" I have been tracking every fuel up I have ever made on all my vehicles since 2009. It calculates your actual mileage by just inputting your odometer reading, gallons pumped and total cost of fuel every time you fill up. There are loads of other parameters that it will calculate as well.

How exactly are you calculating mileage? Are you just assuming you know the tank size and assuming you ran the full tank empty?

This is my actual calculated mileage, not the DIC because that is not accurate. That one huge spike is a cross country trip to the high plateau. Almost all the rest is at sea level in Florida. 2022 5.3, 10-speed and one of the lucky ones without DFM from factory. Everything else is oem.

More air in the engine means more fuel as well. The computer is going to compensate and adjust the amount of fuel as it reads higher airflow. This also isn't the old days where you can throw an intake on and get decent power gains anymore. Computer controls every aspect of engine operation and is going to continually adjust to follow the parameters the stock tune demands.

My guess is you are looking at $5k or more. Your going to need, a new HMI module with all the ports, all the harnesses, and the hardware/cameras and finally programming and calibrations (IF GM even makes conversion kits, which I have not seen on any GM parts website). For reference the invisible trailer camera system is over $500. I am guessing you will be hard pressed to even find a dealer willing to install this stuff. You might as well just trade this truck in for a higher tier that has these options.

I just got mine done yesterday. Sad to hear parts are on backorder already

Sounds about right for the mods and driving habits.

I have had this happen to me occasionally, always at night, normally during cool to cold weather. My guess, based on something I saw on this site, is there was a build up of condensation on the windshield inside the little camera housing. It hasn't happened in a month or two so I haven't been able to pull over and see if it was condensation or not.

Does anyone know how to shift the electronic shifter in the refresh from park to neutral with the engine off? I was just trying to move my truck slightly this weekend and let it roll down a hill without turning the truck on and the system will not let the transmission shift out of park without the engine running. The DIC message displayed was something like "Conditions not correct for shift." At the time I just turned the truck on and moved it but it got me thinking, if something happens on the road or a parking lot where the engine will not start. How am I supposed to push the truck off the road or get it onto a tow truck? I did try it in full power accessory mode and still not bueno.

And yes the kit does come with the calibration software included, to be done at the dealer. The warranty on the kit is 1 year/12,000 miles or the remaining factory warranty, whichever is longer.

I see this comment a lot and theoretically this is how the law is written. Unfortunately, this is not often the case in practice. A dealer can void a warranty for anything they see fit. You need to be comfortable with the dealer you take things into for warranty work if you have mods. If they say your mods caused the issue, they don't necessarily have to prove it then and there but in the courtroom. Ultimately, if GM puts a warranty void on your VIN, you will have to prove through the court system that the mod did not cause undo harm to the factory components. Only then will your warranty be reinstated and GM perform the work. Who pays the attorney and court fees is a whole different ball game. Not saying this happens every time but if GM wants to, they can take it this far.

I think I have seen the Trail Boss/AT4 kit is on backorder and they removed it from the websites. Probably so they can catch up on orders.

The fender liners on almost all GM vehicles are a fiber pressed material. They use this instead of plastic for a variety of reasons but the main appreciation I have for this material is sound deadening, specifically with rain water. My three trucks and two camaros over the past decade had this and they held up just fine and I use my pressure washer to clean them when needed.

yup. hell a quick google search brings up plenty of explanations for this phenomena but anyone who has worked on cars with wheels off the ground should know this basic function of differentials. https://www.quora.com/Why-might-wheels-turn-when-the-car-is-in-P-park#:~:text=Due to the way the,also be able to turn. The transmission does “lock” the drive axle, yes. However it only locks the axle and since there is a differential, even when locked, the wheels will spin freely in opposite directions. For example, if you place the car in park on an incline and one wheel is on ice, and the other is on pavement, the car could still move. The tire on the pavement would roll downhill will the tire on the ice would spin uphill. This is in contrast to using your parking brake where each wheel is “locked” and will not spin (could still skid) but not spin.

You got a truck without DFM software/hardware installed. You still have an engine with all the DFM components, including the DFM lifters.

Out of the total production of vehicles, only a small percentage of us ever join an online forum, an even smaller percentage of us on forums experience lifter failure. Guess who posts online more about lifters. People who are posting about how their lifters are going strong? OR People who have experienced lifter failure? People who post about lifter failure are a very loud super small minority. The likelihood a vehicle you purchase has lifter failure in its lifetime due to DFM/DOD is infinitesimally small and I have never let it deter me from purchasing any of my 5 2015+ GM vehicles.

No SD card for refresh 22s. It's google maps based. Uses your data plan. Once your data plan trial is up you lose the speed limit sign, loses the Google maps (but can still download offline maps connecting to outside wifi). I exclusively use wireless android auto, especially now with the updated Android auto format.

lol you can thank your governmental overlords in the EPA for that one.

Something to keep in mind is what happens if the shipper gets in an accident and either of the vehicles are damaged? Some companies will take responsibility for both, some recommend you keep insurance on your trade until you get your credit or cash? You will need to read any fine print on shipping you sign for regarding who is responsible for damage to either vehicle. I would definitely take a weekend and just drive to pick it up and do the deal in person.

I've had that happen to me a few times this winter down in Florida. I never thought to look into that area for condensation. But I never get a DIC error message.

It's posts like this that I am glad I live in Florida. Most of the cheap dealers down here buy northern trucks and try to sell them here. As soon as you pop underneath you can almost taste the iron in the air.

If money is not an option go for it. But your probably going to be paying at least 10 - 20k more than what your 2019 went brand new, the inflation on vehicles is still high.

I have this all the time from dead stops, reverse or forward. Defintely some slight play somewhere but I've been to lazy to remember to look

I get this issue occasionally. except all my audio inputs do not play sound. All the digital display indicated that they are functioning and sound should come out. I have a sneaking suspicion it has something to do with the lane keep assist alert. The keep assist alert when working normally completely cuts out any music playing and sounds the LKA alert. I am guessing this random music muting happens during a LKA alert triggering. I have to completely shut the truck down and let the infotainment system finish its normal shut down before starting the truck again. Everything works as normal after that.
