    In my '20 LT I hold the power button for 1-2 seconds and it turns off the display. See if this works for you.

    I have two bigger dogs, and personally, I prefer no storage in the cab with the full coverage rubber floor mats. Lots of room for the dogs with the seats lifted up. Storage in the back under the tonneau cover.

    Do they come on with low beams? Or do they set-up a toggle for you?

    A couple of dribbles by the tailgate through the car wash. Otherwise dry. Most likely could make adjustment and be 100% dry. Lomax is having a sale right now and can save over 20%. I am sounding like a salesman, but just a happy customer.

    Personally, really like the Lomax. 2 years on and looks and operates new. Super simple to remove and put back on as needed. Would buy again. I never understood appeal of the rollers. Seems more likely to break and takes up unrecoverable space.

    I got a hard tri-fold that had negligible (maybe +1mpg) effect. Maybe the flutter is increasing drag which seems to be your concern. 4-5 mpg is a lot. Over what period of time did you base this on? I will have this amount of difference when comparing city only (16-17mpg) to city/hwy (21-22mpg).

    Yep, like to use that on a dark road at night to keep the glare of the screen down.

    Just rolled over 30,000 carefree miles and still making discoveries. Learned that hitting the "end call" button on the steering wheel while media is playing it acts as a mute button. Same as tapping the power button on the radio. Nice.

    This video has a segment on just what you are asking. https://youtu.be/idebIVG6cho

    Purchased Nov 2020, 5.3L 8AT @ 25,000 miles. Has been perfect in operation unless you count the sticky auto-stop button when it is cold. I think the family spilled some soda on it on a road trip. I should get an disabler for the A/S as I hit that button every time I start it.

    Never mind....

    You should take a look at the new F*rd Maverick.

    2nd this recommendation. I listen to a lot of terrestrial radio (both AM and FM) and get same reception as OEM with this antennae.

    Quick reply from someone who has a very limited understanding: Auto runs RWD but activates front if senses slip. There is always "some" engagement with the front which will potentially lead to premature wear (and less gas mileage?). In general, no need for Auto in the conditions you describe. Use 2wd for dry pavement, Auto for Rain/Snow type conditions on pavement. You said know about 4wd hi/lo.

    Mine was improved slightly with this TSB. The super-bright washed out screen at night in reverse is "better" now but still a crappy camera. When I went to the dealer (for an oil change) I asked for this and they said have never seen the TSB but to let them know if it works because they had a lot of people complaining about the backup camera at night.

    Love my Lomax pro trifold. Doesn't do the final flip towards the glass, but it has a better trick. Just a quick strap pull and can easily remove/reinstall whole top when needed. Look it up, is a great cover.

    Expectations: Gets me to work and back - Check Efficient errand runner and dump runs - Check Up to six people (5 comfortably) and luggage/bikes for family vacation - check Handles camp site and fire roads - check Never had dreams of wheelin the wheels off. Just wanted a comfortable ride that can handle family duty. Honestly, with the tonneau, I kinda think of it as a big comfortable sedan that has 4wd and a huge-ass trunk.

    I used this with no mod needed, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07X4Y3GTZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Dunn, What engine is your Elevation? If it is not an oil burner, you got me beat for sure.
  23. ChriZ71
    Yeah, I'm bored. Who can top my gas mileage? This was coming DOWN the hill from Tahoe on a cold Winter's night. Truck is a '20 LT Z71 5.3L 8AT 20" wheels.
  24. ChriZ71
    Yeah, like the hitch cargo/bike carrier quite a bit. I see myself using it fairly often when want to carry 4 bikes and keep the tonneau cover on. With the tailgate pad on could only fit 3 bikes on the hitch carrier because of the tire overhang.
  25. ChriZ71
    Was told by my better half that I will need to transport up to 9 bikes on our multi-family vacation. About 600 mile round trip to Yosemite and back. Went without a hitch. Ended up with 7, but could of gone 2 more in a pinch. If interested, got this 2-1 cargo carrier which worked out perfect for the job. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004RFKBEO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
