  1. I can't find the numbers, but I believe it's 1 bhp and 2 btq. Not much, but it would still require a reflash to ensure the AFR remains at 14.7:1. I'm not an expert, but to fulfill emissions requirements a can see fuel trims being reflashed, otherwise you're looking at running a little lean. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  2. I was at my son's baseball practice last week, and parked next to another dad that has a brand new Tundra. We some how got into a comparison between mine and his truck. There were a lot of things he hated about his Tundra, such as no storage under the rear seat, but there were also things he liked, such as longer rear seat cushion, more tilt to the rear backrest, and a few other things. He said the Trail Boss was a very close #2, but the Toyota dealer bent over backwards to get him into the truck. I told him about the leaking rear window, and it affirmed that he made the right purchase. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  3. I get a lot of unsolicited compliments because of the tow mirrors. People say it complete the look of the truck. But, mine is a Trail Boss. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  4. Yesterday wasn't hard rain. I wash my truck every 2 weeks at a do it yourself carwash with high and low pressure water sprayers. I am looking for the leak after each carwash. Nothing so far. I'll keep everybody updated. If I end up developing this problem, and GM tries screwing me like a prostitute desperate for a quick $20, then I'm going to move on. GM wanted to fuss about Ram taking their #2 spot last year. Looking at how they've handled things from 2007+ with V8 engines crapping out before 100k miles, cracked dashboards, and problematic 8-speed trans, they better start getting use to the view as 4th place. I'll switch to Ram or Toyota. This is GM's last shot in my household, and I get the impression a lot of people are feeling the same way. It's not enough for them to take care of me, but how they take care of everybody in general. If they're willing to screw everybody, then they're willing to screw me, too.

  5. Gotta love living in a place where it doesn't rain Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  6. So far so good. 2020 Trail Boss LT built 6/20 in Mexico. Now that I've said something watch me report back with a leak. First thing first, though. I need some rain. It doesn't rain much in San Diego. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  7. Thanks for clarifying this up. Apparently I may be misinformed. I was going off of this information from MVi. Hopefully the picture file isn't too large. When I went to upload from my phone the size for medium looked really small. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

  9. It's not the price that bothers me, but the fact they're swapping out the radio module. According to MVi the module has its own IP address. If you swap the module then the IP address changes, too. This can cause issues with Sirius XM and OnStar. If I had an option to send in my module, let them program it, and they send it back, while I have a "loaner" module, then I'd be much more inclined to do this upgrade. It would cost more to do this with the added shipping, and I'm sure they'd want to add a core charge to ensure they get their loaner module back, and that's all fine with me, but since that's not an option I'm not going to do this. I was going this was going to be feasible for me. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  10. That depends on whether or not they find the fault is your aftermarket accessories Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  11. I doubt you're going to find any good info on this forum. I expressed similar frustrations a few months ago. I got a bunch of ridicule in return. I had the same problem. I have a Note 9. I ended up upgrading the radio so it has the factory navigation that is in the Sierra LTZ, High Country, and GMC Sierra Denali. When all was said and done, it cost $650, and 2 weeks of waiting, and about 2 hours of my time doing labor. MVi (www.gm-navigation.com) has the ability to upgrade the module for you if you have an IOS radio. After reading the information on their website I went with option #2 where I send them my module, they reprogram it and send it back, and then I reinstalled it. They gave me a loaner module so that my radio would continue to function. I like GM factory navigation more than Android Auto. It alerts me to school zones, known speed cameras, and I still have the ability to connect my phone to car via Bluetooth (which I wasn't able to do while running Android Auto). If you use Sirius XM you can also subscribe to the traffic package and it'll give you all the same alerts about traffic, possible does, etc that Android Auto gives you. If you're willing to spend the money, I think it's really worth it, but that my biased opinion. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

  13. My checking account disagrees with your assessment. Yes, the NDAA passed Congress with a veto-proof vote, but that happened Friday. That doesn't mean Trump has, or has to, sign it, nor that he won't veto it. Until it's signed, or sent back to Congress to override Trump's veto, it still isn't law yet. My checking account is with the largest credit union in the world. I doubt they're going to play games like this. Please look into the details of what you're saying before declaring it "Fake News". Furthermore, my comments weren't anti-Trump, but a statement of what's currently happening. I could go off on a tirade about politics, but this thread isn't the place for that. My post was about mods and why I can't currently do them to my truck. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  14. I'd love to, but it's true. At this time I need to prioritize spending until I know things are better. Hopefully the military gets paid on their actual payday Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  15. I'll think about it. Gotta see where money falls. I know it's a cheap mod, but Trump's tantrum over Facebook and Twitter is costing military their paychecks. My wife was suppose to be paid tonight via 1 day early via direct deposit. The bank is blaming the military. The military is blaming Congress. Congress is blaming Trump's threat to veto.

  16. So the circle jerk from GM continues??? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  17. Silver sticker on driver's side b-pillar that also has your towing numbers. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  18. That's how it was for me while I waited on my truck. The contract isn't fully executed until you take delivery of your new truck, therefore you're entitled to your trade in until then. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  19. I'm still on the fence with doing this. I kinda like the darker halogen turn signal on my blacked out dark blue truck. Thoughts? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  20. I haven't been looking for that type of mirrors. My truck doesn't have blind zone detection because it came with manual folding tow mirrors from the factory. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  21. I feel very similar. The only changes I'm doing are OE-type changes that my truck didn't have the option for, but wanted. No factory navigation as an option, blackout package only available on black trucks. Power folding tow mirrors not available. There are other things, like memory and cooled seats and that I feel are too expensive and time consuming that I'm not going to bother with. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  22. Question about this: I'm looking at purchasing and installing the upfitter switch kit for my truck. I read somewhere on this forum that switch 5 is meant for that beacon pigtail. Does installing the upfitter switches connect switch 5 to the beacon with the install process, or is that an additional step that can be avoided so switch 5 used for something else?

  23. That's exactly why I print TSBs i find on my vehicles. The service writer or service manager tries that line and I'll pull out the TSB and tell them they have now heard it. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
  24. I have a set for sale. I just swapped from chrome to black. I am asking $125. That includes shipping cost. They are ready to go now. If you think that's a bit steep, I'll entertain reasonable offers. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
