Yeah, it seems that in many ways, my refresh is a downgrade. My interior door handles no longer have lights, fogs are junk, shifter configuration is janky (who thought pushing forward would be reverse instead of park?), backup camera intermittently doesn't work, truck turns on parking brake when on the slightest incline......
Might end up going back to a 2020. The only nicer thing on this is the larger screen
Anyone making something as a replacement for the JUNK that is on the new models? My 2020 fog lights actually lit up the ground and my 23 does nearly nothing. I'd be better off with a 3 D cell Mag Light taped under the truck.
The whole refresh is a bad design in my opinion. Wish I would have stuck with my 2020.
Piano black=sucks
Shifter is unintuitive (full forward should be PARK, not reverse)
This G damned parking brake automatically turning on. Save a parking pawl, ride an e-brake?
Loss of space due to floor shifter
Front end's Chevy logo is up too high
Front end missing the turn signal lamps, independent of the DRLs isn't as nice looking
But hey.... we have a pretty screen
I agreed until this line.
This has been a "thing" for many years on these trucks. My early 2020 had it and my 23 has it. I believe it goes back even further.
I drove a Ford the other day and honestly, the technology is like comparing a flip phone to a modern day smart phone. It's much more refined. From the trailering functions to the lane keep assist. It all just blends into the background. Once I have built a little equity in this truck, there's a very real possibility I'll be making the move
Let me guess....
The trailer is 100% LEDs.
First of all, not sure how in the world this would affect surge brakes which are mechanical
Secondly, the LEDs are likely not drawing enough power to trip the system which uses resistance to detect the trailer.
Add a resistor or incandescent bulb inline and test.
Hey guys,
This one might be a bit hard to explain. 2023 6.2 w/10 speed. At low speeds, if I let off the throttle, the truck lurches. That is, it feels like I'm not only letting off the pedal but hitting the brakes at the same time. I don't feel it EVERY time but quite often.
Anyone else have a similar issue?
No kidding
On a tangent... how many have thrown it into "park" only to realize you're in REVERSE? Full forward has been Park for all automatic transmissions forever. Why the HELL would they make it a button here?
Damned near hit a car today after backing into a spot. In my head, it was in park until I started going backwards
For reference, Google "Project Farm Air Filter" and you'll see his testing with filters.
Then, look at this at 20:30. K&N can kinda do it but S&B's knock off will not do the same things
I still think that the guy in the video is wrong and his data is outdated, but even someone trying to push oil filters is "meh" with the knock offs.
I won't go oiled as they simply do not filter as well (and by a substantial amount)
Ended up buying one of their dry filters to replace it. On a quick attempt to get the old one out, seems like it's going to be a bear. Almost feels like it's got adhesive on the thing
Have their paper filter as I have had some bad luck in the past with wet filters. They want 70 bucks for it!? Same price as the oiled filter.
Anyone successfully swap it out with something else? Seems absurd and I'm certain they don't MFG them themselves
