  1. Thanks Mike. I've been curious about getting vinyl wraps, but won't be doing it this time around. My wife and I are locals, but she's in the Navy and there aren't any Naval bases in Utah. We're here to visit family while the kids are on spring break with school. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  2. I haven't watched much of Diesel Bros, but from what I've seen it appears they're located north of Salt Lakh near Woods Cross. Is the vinyl wrap shop up there too? I arrived in Salt Lake today after driving from San Diego. There is a huge difference in the cost of everything. A meal at a local restaurant would cost me $50 in California. It only cost $29 in Utah. The problems with California are real. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  3. Welcome to the No More Chrome On Blue Trucks Club. Northsky Blue looks amazing when you get rid of the chrome. However, the other blue that's SEO only, called Arrival Blue, looks great with chrome, imo Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  4. Traveled through time, literally, and I achieved this while driving 88 mph. Details: Time zone change where the posted speed limit is 80 MPH. I ALWAYS set cruise at 8 mph over the posted speed when on the highway. (I cap it at 4 mph over when not on the interstate/highways.) Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  5. Momma did say we're related to the Wallenda family [emoji38] Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  6. She drives a minivan. That's a big trunk to fill. Ironically, both of the neighbors I've been helping will be moving within the next year. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  7. Nope. 2 doors down from them. Although, I did also take care of her needs back in December while her husband was out of country. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] He also thanked me for that. Seriously, though. They were giving their daughter a new bicycle for Christmas, and it came in a box unassembled. I assembled it and held onto it until Christmas Eve night. A late night visit to see a woman never seemed more awkward than parking a bicycle into her garage. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  8. Since you're looking under the truck, might as well take a look at the roof too. Gotta make sure it's all there. Don't need the dealership scanning you out of part of your truck. Seriously though, if it has a rear sliding window be very attentive and look for leaks on the inside. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  9. Don't forget 2019 has a new frame Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  10. What's your address? I'll go make sure it's still there. [emoji38] Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  11. $65 is definitely too cheap. Should be more like $150-$200. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  12. That's the color I almost bought, but didn't want to drive 2 hours to the Outer Banks from Norfolk, VA. It happened to be a Trail Boss LT with the 6.2, too. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  13. They forms on what the next leg of the trip is for your truck. If it's in Salt Lake City it's likely in a train car at North Salt Lake. The bad news is that ski season will be over soon, and the rental car fleets are probably transitioning over to their summer fleet. That means a few thousand cars may be at the same place, and they're waiting on truck drivers to get everything delivered. If awaiting a truck to take to your dealer, it may be a bit. If then start asking if a truck has been assigned to deliver your new truck. If so, it could be 1 to 2 weeks from the date of assignment before your new ride gets to the dealer. All speculation on my part. Just going off past experience. I use to work in the rental car industry in SLC. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  14. I might just have to buy the cup holder hero thingys for my truck. Blue exterior may warrant the blue borders. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  15. The dealership is already moving in the direction of getting him a new truck. He wants a 6.2 crew cab with 6 person seating. He prefer a Custom Trail Boss, but that's a unicorn. Out of 4 states (California, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona) there's only 1. Looks like he's going with another trim level. The dealership is trying to do a trade with another dealers for a 6.2. He may opt to have the Trail Boss suspension upgrade added by the dealer. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  16. My neighbor just initiated this process the other day. Got a 2021 Custom Trail Boss. Had 1100 miles on it, and the engine is toast. 5.3 V8 with AFM. Hasn't even made his first payment yet. Something about some extra/rogue bolts being inside the engine. Engine started rattling, so he took it to the dealership. Dealership offered a replacement engine under warranty, but my neighbor wants out of the truck because having a replaced engine will decrease the value later on. He's hoping to get into a Custom Trail Boss with the 6.2, but that is a unicorn. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  17. I got in my truck for the first time since Saturday. The last time I drove it I was returning home from a trip to the beach where there was a firepit and we grilled hotdogs, brats, and stores. The smell of campfire when I first got in my truck today was very enjoyable. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  18. Here's the real kicker. The LD label has been under your nose the whole time, but you didn't notice it. Every 1500 has a piece of plastic on the far end of the driver's side cowl that's tucked slightly under the fender. I noticed it today with the hood open. It is embossed LD in letters that are about 2-3 inches tall. I'll try to get a pic later if requested. My truck is a 2020. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  19. GM will compete with Ford. They usually hold sales promotions around that time, too. Imo, it depends on what you're trying to do. GM tends to start transitioning too the next model year in the last summer and fall. They'll hold sales to clear out old inventory. This is particularly true when a vehicle is updated, like the 2022 Silverado will be. Down side is you're restricted to available stock and can't custom order something.

  20. It worked. Thank you again. Here's the result. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  21. Installed the Baja Designs a-pillar lights from GM Accessories. Wired them to switch 2 on the GM Upfitter switches. The lightbar is on switch 1, but that's old news. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  22. Thank you for the reply. I'll get on it in just a moment here and report back what the result is. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  23. Just a quick question. I'm installing a-pillar lights. I already have a lightbar installed. I'm using the GM Upfitter switches. Lightbar is on switch 1. A-pillar lights are going to be on switch 2. I'm not finding many options to ground at, and was hoping I could ground into the same bolt. Is this going to work, or will it cause something like an electrical loop through the ground? Electrical isn't my expertise, so I'm hoping the experts here can give me an answer.

  24. I just realized the scent on that can is called Coronado Cherry. They only cherries on that island are virgin rich girls. Again, it's all a lie, lol. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  25. Only the only people that know are GM engineers. Every other answer is speculation. I've started this in both my replies so far. What is like to see is actual dyno numbers for a stock truck and then trucks with the various intakes. Let's see if the purported claims are realistic. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
