  1. lapoolboy or anyone else, did the you ever get your bed aligned properly. I had the side to side TSB performed for side to side alignment but the bed height is still off, more so on the driver side. I need to go back to the dealer but wondering if anyone had any luck and what was done.
  2. Yea pretty soon you will need a box of currency to even buy a loaf of bread. Extreme dollar devaluation and inflation are on the way. Maybe I'm exaggerating a little ; ) but currently doesn't look too good.
  3. Yea that is crazy but have you noticed how we are now conditioned to the new normal of $50K now on a run of the mill car or truck, not top trim level. Growing up, although I am 51 now, a $15K vehicle seemed crazy. ETA: Value of 1980 US Dollars today. The inflation rate in the United States between 1980 and today has been 235.17%, which translates into a total increase of $235.17. This means that 100 dollars in 1980 are equivalent to 335.17 dollars in 2020. In other words, the purchasing power of $100 in 1980 equals $335.17 today.
  4. Yea I didn't do much better than you (2021 Denali Ultimate 6.2 4WD) last month. Almost the same deal but I did get a great trade in value on my 2019 5.3 Denali 4WD.
  5. I traded from a 2019 Denali to a 2021 and the ride is much better. 2021 less bouncy and smoother and seems to absorb bumps better. Also the seats are much more comfortable. The 2019 seats had barely any cushion.
  6. I just traded a 2019 to a 2021 Denali and the ride is night and day difference to me. The 2021 seems to be smoother and not as bouncy and feels more solid on the road. I also went from 20" to 22" wheels so not sure how much that played into the ride difference.
  7. I'm looking at a new Denali also. Is anyone getting much off besides the employee pricing and purchase allowance offers?
  8. When hitting even the slightest bumps my back seat is noisy and seems to be getting worse. I was aware of the headrest issue and I slightly bent them and reinserted and the noise went away for a while but it now seems worse that before. Anyone taken their truck in for this and know how it was fixed?
  9. Amazon sells this one through Prime so I guess you could try it out and if it doesn't work send it back. Beats waiting for China shipping and restocking fee. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08FC3B2QF/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=wireless+carplay&qid=1599262746&sr=8-4
  10. Yea I like the look of the black ones much better too.
  11. Nice looking truck. Were the side badge/vents easy to replace? I'm looking at changing mine to those.
  12. Wow that looks like shit. Can't believe they tried to get this by someone. What is the smeared stuff around the gouge or is that also more touch up paint?
  13. Well after turning off the trailer notification last night I got in the truck this morning and the screen showed lane change alert disabled and says I have trailer lights that are out. I unhooked everything and finally got the truck to clear the errors. Looks like I will go with the other plan to wire directly to 12V and not play with fire anymore.
  14. Thanks Ryno12 for the information I have never heard of this. I just turned it off in the trailer settings and now the lights don't flicker or flash at all when off. Either I got lucky or it was fixed with one of the recall/software updates. Anyhow thanks again.
  15. Looks like the running light source has some monitor/power activity even when powered off. Guess I will have to run power for the bed lights to the 7 way 12v constant and just remember to turn off the switch when not in use. Either that or run them constant with a relay to the factory bed lights.
  16. For some reason my LED bed lights that i installed flash every 5 or so seconds when my running lights are off (they are wired to be on when the running lights are on). I wired them with a CURT 56584 wiring harness to avoid cutting or splicing any factory wiring harness and used the running light wire and ground to power the LED bed lights. When I switch them on with the running lights on they also flash about 7 times then they finally power on normally. Does anyone have an idea why they would flash?
  17. Thanks for the info. Another project for me to work on.
  18. Nice, can you share how you ran the wiring and how you wired them to the trailer plug?
  19. I have the 2 lights that were factory installed in the rear of the bed but they are almost worthless for illumination. Anyone that has added additional bed lights, where did you wire them for power? I thought about just tapping off the existing ones but I don't want to throw a code. I have a set of magnetic 12V LED light strips, just need to power them.
