    That's funny!!! But, the sad reality is that if a car company actually sold Pandora's Box there would be fanboys throwing their money down, and then whining about all the problems. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    I'm not the person to answer that question. The truck i just bought is my first one ever. I've had it 2 weeks. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Has anybody looked into, or attempted to install, memory seating on a truck with power seats that doesn't have memory seating from the factory? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    1 of 5 isn't something you drive around. It's something you lock in barn and don't let see sunlight for the next 60 years. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    I'm sorry, what's this thread about? I am distracted by the beautiful color of that truck. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    MY2019 has 2 different body styles. 2019 Silverado LD is the old body style. All other trims are new body style. The ones for $30 to $40 more are probably the correct ones. You should be able to go to accessories.chevrolet.com, enter your VIN, and find the correct part. I installed rear liners on my 2020 myself. It's fairly easy, but I had a plastic trim to remove behind the rear wheels at the very bottom of the fender so i could screw in 1 part of the liner. Be careful with the clips. I broke one and had to buy a replacement. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    They should be able to track your truck. My dealer was able to. And, when I asked what the truck had they were able to pull up an electronic copy of the window sticker. I wonder if your dealer isn't aware of what they're capable of. I was also just wondering if the trim line and options affect the discount. I bought a Trail Boss LT with the 6.2. Edit: never mind on the trim line question. You and I have similar trucks -- trail boss lt with 6.2 and well equipped. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    That's interesting. The numbers I used above were yours and mine. I wonder if geography is a factor. I'm currently in an area that has a very high density of military personnel. As for the price difference for the exact same trucks, that's funky. I wonder what changed. Are the Z71 badges getting blacked on the fenders for that additional 215.

    I found it interesting. That's all. Just for kicks and giggles, let's do some math. 3576/61465=5.8% teacher discount. Number of full time teachers in the US = 3.2 million. 2331/58755=3.9% military discount. Number of full time US military personnel = 1.3 million. Don't construe this as me advocating that one group should get preferential treatment over the other. After all, both groups get low pay and perform tough jobs. Just find it interesting from a business perspective that the larger group has the larger discount. In my pea-sized brain I think a business is looking to maximize profits, and therefore would give the smaller discount to the larger group. Chevy isn't required to give anybody a discount. I'm just looking at this analytically. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Seems like all car manufacturers fall under that statement with the way things are now Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    The only thing that caught my attention here is that the teacher discount is $1245 more than active duty military and healthcare worker discount. We got $2,331 or for that. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Is anybody getting rid of their non-towing mirrors? Just curious if it's worth it for base mirrors with no cameras and no power folding. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    If you're going to check for rear window leaks, why not do it this way? Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    I have seen a posts where people have asked about these. I recently needed them to install the sport bar on my truck. I was able to get them from GM in pdf format. Here you go. http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/5f32f0c61d70a/84571746.pdf Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    You're right. They should. I bought an inbound truck in early July. It did take longer to arrive than the dealer thought it would take, but I was able to get weekly updates from them. They know where the truck is sitting, whether a transport truck has been assigned to deliver it, etc. Every step in the process has a 4 digit numeric code assigned to it, which GM and the dealer can check on to see what's happening.

    Last month I bought exactly what you're looking for. I was only able to get the $5,000 rebate, plus another $2,331 knocked off. These trucks are selling fast. You'll either have to custom order, at which point the only discounts you'll get are what's available when a VIN for your truck is produced, or find something already inbound to get the current offers. I've been told a custom order is about 2 months out, and you're likely looking at 2021MY at this point. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Finished the high mount brake light wiring today. That concludes the build until I get this move to California done with. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Got up early and started working on the truck again this morning. I started by removing all chrome badges on the tailgate and hood. The only badges that remained were the Z71 badges, but only because I haven't found a suitable replacement. After debadging, and removing the old adhesive, I stuck on black badges from GM. I then followed up by installing black vinyl lettering in the embossed portion of the tailgate. I think the black on the blue looks really good. I then started working on installing the sport bar. The bar is mounted, and the wiring was routed to under the truck, but it started to rain, so I grabbed a plastic baggie and an elastic and covered the connector at the end to protect it from water damage. I also wrapped the cable around my running board and loosely zip tied it so it wouldn't come off while driving. I'll be able to finish this project on Monday. A bit of advice for those who are looking to install a tonneau cover and sport bar -- do the sport bar first, or you'll either have to remove it or get a helper to assist. Fortunately, my 10 year old son was available (he was only playing video games anyways), so I made him turn some wrenches today. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk

    Today resulted in a big fat goose egg of progress. I've spent a good chunk of the day trying to obtain the installation instructions for the sport bar. My primary area of focus is the wiring. The dealership closest to my house want able to find them, but did give me a number to GM. I called that GM number, and they redirected me to Marketing Support. Marketing Support is escalating my case. I then called a 2nd dealership. They've been a bit more helpful. They are working to actually track down the install instructions. I'll update this when I have more info. Edit: I have in my hands a printed copy of the sport bar installation instructions for the T1xx trucks. I'm planning on installing the sport bar in the morning. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
