  1. As posted in the other thread, a few had that issue at first and then returned to normal. If you are just going off that tank, remember they burned up a fair amount of fuel going nowhere when they did the update and had to force a regen.
  2. I get about 20 empty, 15 towing a car hauler with a small tractor aboard, 10-11 towing the camper. (highway mileage, rarely in a city anyway)
  3. Mine is a high country, I like the 2 tone colors. YMMV
  4. Had mine done last week. Have not noticed any difference in operation.
  5. Wanted to resurrect this thread just to say the part Suzi listed worked perfectly. I had pulled the original plug loose by accident and this replacement is exactly the same.
  6. I'm surprised you would notice any front end unloading with a 5'ver. I think it was TFL that went to the scales with a truck and gooseneck trailer (2500 ish pin weight?) and it only changed the front axle weight 100 lbs. I tow a bumper pull camper and it unloads the front axle a few hundred lbs, no issue to me. That said, mine is a diesel. 14,300 is a lot of trailer. Sounds like the L8T is a pretty stout engine to tow it so well as it does.
  7. These single cabs sure make for handsome trucks. Must be the old guy in me.
  8. Mine does the same thing with my flatbed trailer that has LED lights. On your first picture, if you hit the "trailers" tab, it will show the list of trailers you have saved. Select the appropriate trailer and it will then say "connected to trailer A" or something along those lines. It will also sometimes give me the check brake light message randomly when they are working fine. I have had zero issues like this with my RV that is NON LED. Let us know how the adapter works.
  9. You do not need to do anything to the truck to make the charging circuit work. Sounds like you have an issue with the trailer or possibly a blown fuse on the truck.
  10. Tells you a few things about em.
  11. I put 35.4 gallons in mine recently. The light was on for 30 miles or so. Odd circumstances, I almost never let it go below 1/4.
  12. Congrats! 16 months with mine, great truck!
  13. I would look closely at your aftermarket parts and verify nothing is wrong there. Sounds like it's starving for air. My trailer is about 9000 lbs and the truck has no trouble with grades at all using the cruise control. Mine is all stock.
  14. Ha ha, yes my '04 feels like a half ton now.
  15. I kinda like my High Country. I also still like my '04 WT, but it's quite spartan by comparison. (Crank windows!!!!)
  16. I just sold my 09 Corvette to a dealer for more than I paid for it 4 years ago. Very wacky market.
  17. I just filled mine the other day, tracking it on fuelly. In the last 2984 miles it used 4.76 gallons for 626.9 MPG. That was about half empty and half towing a flatbed with a small tractor, around 6000 lbs. If I am towing the camper, it's more like 400 MPG.
  18. Minor old thread resurrection. I get that message all the time, especially when a trailer is attached. Goes to the towing screen and asks for a password. I have never set a password for anything, nor did I get any phone apps or sign up with onstar. (nor do I want to) How do I make it stop?
  19. If they put it on like my dealer did, you can just rip it right off by hand. The holes you can't see without getting on the ground to look up.
  20. Operator error caused me to pull the coax loose from the connector on the trailer camera. Does anyone know what these connectors are? Thinking it must be some off the shelf piece that someone who deals with this stuff might recognize? The bad piece is the part that goes from the coax to screw into the part that plugs into the truck. Threads are about 7/16 or 11mm.
  21. Also new to oil burners. I use the truck stop pump DEF, it's really a non issue.
  22. Premium fuel recommended, doesn't sound like something you would hear for a fleet truck engine.
