  1. Another thing to think about is the height of the trailer. Most 5th wheels are between 13' 2" and 13' 6". Add another 7 inches and you're going to be hitting some bridges, overpasses and even canopies at fuel stations.
  2. Get the AT4X without the AEV package. This makes the Ultimate and AT4X close to the same price.
  3. Someone cut a slit in the wheel well liner and unplugged the horn and the "wire keeper". When I found it the horn wire was laying over top of the tire. My guess is the person shorted the wire or plugged it into an electronic device to deactivate the alarm and unlock the doors. No windows were broken and there was no other damage to my truck. I plugged the horn back in and all was well. I didn't call the police since my brother said they don't appear to care since it happens so much. They didn't find anything they wanted while rummaging through the glove compartments, center console or my luggage. The hotel desk lady said they're looking for guns or money.
  4. I drove to Spring, TX, north of Houston last week. On Wednesday night someone was able to gain access to the interior of my truck by disconnecting a two wire accessory and either shortening it out or connecting it to an electronic device. They went through every compartment and my suitcase looking for something of value but couldn't find anything, I have refrained from revealing exactly how they performed this act.
  5. Yes, there is a setting for leaving the steps deployed.
  6. If you want to add additional lighting to the rear check out https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/258553-rear-lights-added-into-bumper-steps-rigid-ignite/ or https://podholes.com/products/pod-hole.
  7. I added almost every part number listed for the conversion to a cart on https://www.gmpartsoverstock.com/cart and the total came to $3717.21 plus over $350 for shipping. The only item I didnt add was the U-bolts because my 2500 has the max towing package which includes the 3500 rear suspension. I would have to get the u-bolts from a different place.
  8. Try Coverking.com. The better seat covers are made from made from the same material as a wetsuit. I had these in a 2020 LTZ and want to sell them.
  9. According to etrailer.com, a rail system will work with the factory puck system but as you say it will be 2 to 2.5 inches taller. You can buy a hitch from etrailer that will fit into the factory puck system and doesn't need the rail to work.
  10. The Chevrolet/GMC dealer in Stanleytown, VA, performed this recall on my 2024 2500HD Denali Ultimate while there for its 1st oil change on September 16th. They told me the update could take anywhere between 12 minutes and 2 hours. Of course mine took the full 2 hours. I have noticed no change in any of the truck's systems and operations.
  11. If you don't want to go through GM for the parts you can also shop etrailer.com. They have the hitch, wiring and video instructions online.
  12. This may be the one Bowtie was referring to: https://www.amazon.com/LAUNCH-X431-Elite-2-0-fit/dp/B0CRT4GJMX/ref=sr_1_10?crid=1J29CDUTXLEG3&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.UVq5HAn5fc5LV7BEXV8v5hz9TTQSdNnuPWez43A9ApDMplaM5NN-5xacI0-YEfSEwQa9mE2r9HQ00SfPthhaSeOP8CpmLZuCc1AoOJBhrVKR0eXtNO7lGaWjYuDUycnVGVa-tBSNZnem1uZLWmpqZbq-Ft009snGT7OUZutMEf1lB3_X5-BNxyz97kbG7FsrZc6kdul8SWJWZ7Xw3ym30CdngEWH377ArIP3-qZd1J5jw5GUU5zPGeb4yGTatcCO-lMeJbl1cexherpKn_LoYQORgHPK6rDq5AwJ2CL9Txs.Z5_fq4iPwU50oJYWccbr4fNe8pf2pKf72d4JSeRCxKc&dib_tag=se&keywords=x431+launch+scan+tool&qid=1724934983&sprefix=x431%2Caps%2C226&sr=8-10
  13. Hi, I am on my 2nd safe from Locker Down. They sell out almost as soon as they receive a shipment these days. Yes, they charge your credit card even if they don't have the safes in stock. Contact sales ([email protected]) and cancel the order. It will take a few days for them to reimburse your credit card. I think they want the money on their books. Then stay in contact with sales so you'll know when they have some in stock.
  14. This is the tray I bought from Amazon: Center Console Organizer Tray for 2019 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 / GM Sierra 1500 Accessories Replaces 84106530 Brand: Anydream
  15. I have a question about the seats in the 2024 2500 HD. I know (think) the AT4, Denali AT4X and Denali Ultimate all have different grades of leather for the seat material. I also know the AT4X and Ultimate have massaging seats. If you take away the messaging seats which GMC trim would have the most comfortable seats for a trip from east coast to Anchorage, Denali and Fairbanks AK and for everyday driving?
  16. You should look at Eaton E-lockers.
  17. I bought a center tray from Amazon and notched it for the electronic lock on my lock'er down safe.
  18. I have the Lock'er Down EXxtreme console safe with their metal cased Electronic lock. It was pricey.
  19. I love the 3.0L Duramax also. I average 27 mpg on trips and 16.5 towing my 21 foot bassboat. My best mpg for 25 miles was 41.9. My best for 50 miles was 35.4. I'm not sure where I was located at the time I achieved these numbers. I travel to southwest Virginia every month. I made two trips to Wright-Patterson AFB last year and one trip to Spring, TX. There isn't too much flat land in southwestern Virginia so these numbers must have from trips to western Ohio or on the way to Texas.
  20. I'm not willing to pay MSRP for any truck after seeing that a GMC dealership in Tampa takes approximately 10% off of all new vehicles it sells. Of course some of their fees eat at that 10% but the price is still better than most. As far as tis particular vehicle goes I can wait. I'll see what price they try to sell it for at the end of the year or January when they're not selling vehicles because everyone is paying off Christmas debt.
  21. Thanks for all the comments. I checked out the truck today. The young lady assisting me said that the previous owner's wife didn't like riding in the truck so they traded it in for a Genesis SUV. It hasn't been cleaned yet and there was trash i the cab and bed. I won't touch it till they go below 75k if then.
  22. Thanks for the info. It appears this truck was traded in for a Genesis vehicle after 4 months of ownership by a corporation. The dealership has the original window stick posted in their "Auto Ipacket" about the vehicle so they know what the original MSRP was. Yet they have a retail price of $91,250 posted on their website.
  23. How much should a used 2024 Sierra 2500HD AT4 with 5900 miles sell for? It is Volcanic Red Tintcoat and has the AT4 Premium Plus package which includes the AT4 Preferred package and the Technology package and has the power steps. The MSRP for a similar vehicle is now $87,200 but was $86,380 when the truck was originally sold in June. I've always heard that a vehicle lost up to 20% of its value when it was driven off the lot. The dealer that took this one as trade is asking $87,999. I think $75K for a this truck is fair. What do you think?
  24. I took an 85 Bronco II to England in 1989. To get amber turn signals I bolted amber fog lights underneath the bumper.
