  1. Anyone use Amazon Music through carplay? iOS 14 seems to have nuked it. Songs will not show. I've re-paired, deleted and reinstalled Amazon music, and messed with some iPhone settings that I read as things to try. Nothing. A few other music apps too (iheart radio). Stuff just doesn't load.
  2. I have an iphone, but Android Auto should be the same. It's a free app-give it a shot.
  3. Just my take on the stock audio for my 2019 Custom. It actually sounds pretty good....with eq and using your phone (not FM radio). EQ is the secret. The bass pumps pretty well and it is doesn't break up easily. Clarity would be my issue and probably fixed with speaker upgrade. But it isn't that big of an issue. Compared to the last 2 vehicles I drove (2014 Equinox Pioneer system with sub and 2017 Grand Caravan GT with 9 speaker system and sub) the basic Silverado stereo sounds better. Just FM radio is only okay, but I use my phone 99% of the time so I don't care. As for the eq, it goes against what "audiophiles" like to do, but I found the system to have too much mids. I set the bass to +4, and cut the mids leaving the highs flat. In fact, I was going to add on the factory sub but really don't see a need to do so (and I'm a bass player for my weekend gig).
  4. This happened to me using Waze. Really weird...music playing and then Waze talking and the music also plays on the "Waze channel" which seems to be windshield speakers. I blew the phone out from the stereo's bluetooth and then re-paired. All good since.
  5. Interesting color...sometimes gray, sometimes blue, sometimes even green. It actually fits well with the ugliest license plate in the US (NY).
  6. Here's my Ionic 41 black boards. Got them from realtruck.com. Easy install. Visually they look to line up with the door (talking ding protection purposes). Maybe they stick out just a little.
  7. 2019 Custom (I really like the Custom front end)...great truck so far...added Extang Solid Tri-Fold 2.0 and Ionic running boards (for my wife's sake).
  8. Onstar will unlock your truck at anytime...you just have to shell out the credit card and subscribe. I inquired about this with my Equinox (what would happen after 5 years up and need to get into the vehicle if I lock my keys in it). That does suck that it is now only for 3 months...it was a cool feature that GM had over their competitors and part of the new vehicle experience.
  9. This is BS. My 2014 Equinox LT gave you remote start/key fob for 5 years. Now you get it for 3 months? I am about to purchase my 2019 Silverado this week, but that does factor into the equation.
