Jesse, thanks for the info and pix.. That truck looks great!!!!! Did you wrap or paint the grill and bumpers? Wheel and tire size look perfect....Wheel and tire size please.
Did you install level kit or just crank the keys a bit? I really like the look of this truck,good job..
Steve.
I do not know how GM comes up with these calculations for slide in camper rating.
How do they know how much the slide in weighs.
Some slide in campers weigh as little as 1,500 lbs, others can weigh 5,000 lbs+.
With a 3500 truck you should be fine as long as the camper does not go way over the truck payload rating.
Even if you are under the payload rating, an aftermarket rear sway bar and rear air bags make for a much better ride with the camper on the truck..
Very wise post there jlong. Never trust the dealer to disclose damage or repairs.
I would bring that truck to an independent body shop and have them check for damage/repairs.
Tahoe, as you know that is a lot of frame rust for a new truck. That sucks, I would also be pissed . In one of those pix where the frame wax is smeared it looks like there was some sort of clamp or hook on the frame . Whenever I see smears or rust on a new frame I start to think that the vehicle has been on a body shop frame rack or it was recovered from a ditch by a tow truck.
Sorry for your troubles, just throwing these ideas out there.
I also see no Double cab LB 4X4 LT Duramax in stock anywhere. Back in early Feb I got a price quote and estimated delivery date for the above truck. The salesman said 12-14 weeks give or take. Now with the GM shutdown, I am thinking end of the year. That's ok with me, I'd rather have a 2021 truck anyways.
