Man you ain’t kidding, the first time I got in it at the dealership I instinctively grabbed for the latch. I asked the sales guy what’s the deal on the console lid? When he said “Yea you have to upgrade to bucket seats in the Custom to get the center console”. I said hold up my man, I’m gonna have to collect myself...this could be a dealbreaker. I was then eagerly told they had plenty of LT’s & LTZ’s on the lot in black with bucket seats and a console, but that I would still be charged a destination and restocking fee from GM and likely some of my deposit. Finding an aftermarket console all of a sudden didn’t seem to be all that big a deal...Except I haven’t found one, so yea...I hope GM’s quarterly profits meet expectations with all the money they saved on not giving us a center console!

Out with the old, in with the new. I’m a creature of habit. 2006 Silverado Z71 —> 2011 Silverado LT —> 2019 Silverado Custom. Notice the drop in trim levels each time I purchase a new Silverado; besides cost correlation I find that starting with the lowest base trim that allows the addition of everything you can’t live without and then special ordering a very specifically built truck tends to be the most satisfying aspect of the buying process. I will admit, it’s not usually the most cost effective as I definitely spent more on this Custom than the nicely appointed 4WD LT the dealership insisted I purchase that day instead of waiting for her to come in ;)
