  1. The carpet part unsnaps and it becomes a solid rubber floor mat
  2. One of the primary reasons I bought my 21 Sierra was because it didn’t have the features like that. My Kia has it and I’m up to about 25 near misses due to the “safety” features. If my HD truck slams on the brakes or turns the wheel when I’m not expecting it that could do a lot of damage to someone. I guess that’s the difference though. I pay attention to what’s around me and tell my car what to do accordingly. If you don’t want to have to pay attention to the road in my opinion you shouldn’t have a truck this large.
  3. That’s not how that works. If added it would be lumped into a safety package that would be required for a tech package. Sure you could get a work truck but you would miss out on all the niceties because you don’t want the adaptive cruise.
  4. According to the printing on the windows the following is fact. Factory fronts 70% VLT Factory rears 20% VLT Factory sunroof 18% VLT I got the following put on the windows 20% fronts 35% rears 70% windshield Either the 20 or 35 on the sunroof I ended up with 14% front 7% rears 3.8% sunroof If I ever have another vehicle with a sunroof I want it darker than this.
  5. I am in the same boat. Want these but cant seem to find them. I will be going to the dealer soon to see if they can find them somehow.
  6. +18 is factory offset so they should.
  7. My 2020 Kia has a locking gas door. If the car doors are locked so is the fuel door. Car doors unlocked so is the fuel door.
  8. If you buy tint from walmart about 6 months. If you get a solid ceramic tint from a professional the life of the truck. For reapplication the removal is the expensive part sometimes costing more than the initial cost depending on the skills of the shop you go to. Low skilled shops are not as efficient at removal so they will charge INSANE prices.
  9. The discounts are not being offered currently because they are looking at the 2022 model years. On the discount website it talks about how in the beginning of model years the discount is not offered so dealers can build stock. I don’t foresee that happening anytime soon.
  10. I just got my Denali and drove it 12 hours straight home yesterday. This is by far the best vehicle seat I have planted my butt in for a road trip. 12 hours with only short stops to empty myself or fill up the truck and I didn’t have any of my usual hip, knee, ankle, or back pain. This truck is a game changer for me.
  11. I think that the important factor here is how the truck will be used. Will it be a grocery getter and family hauler majority of the year with the occasional hardware store trip or 5th wheel tow 5 times a year or will it regularly have a load behind it. I know people that got the diesel because they wanted the power and used it for the occasional tow. They all had major problems with the emissions garbage because the engines weren’t worked hard enough to clear it out. From following forums and the like it seems like as long as your truck is used hard more than light you don’t have problems with diesel emissions. It also seems like the people that bought the gas trucks for the bed and occasional heavy tow are very happy with the gas performance.
  12. You are correct. The Bose upgrade is quite a letdown. I would hate to see what the basic speakers are like if this is the upgraded system.
  13. I just got the truck and my tint shop said that it was 20%. I told him I want to go to 15% fronts and to make the back and sunroof match and windshield 70%. I will post some pictures near the end of the month when it is all completed.
  14. Yes but everything that I have seen has said that GVWR is truck, passengers, and tongue weight combined.
  15. On a side note does anyone know why my picture flipped upside down. It is upright in my camera roll and when uploaded it flips. I flipped the image and saved it that way tried to upload it and it is still flipped on the website.
  16. I got tired of waiting and hearing all these stories. Wanted an AT4 with tech pkg. Found a 3500 Denali Ultimate priced the same as my AT4. Considering they are the same exact vehicle except for the seats, the exterior color being specific to the Denali trim, and the sunroof I pulled the trigger. 700 miles later I had my truck back home.
  17. Learned something new today. It just seems weird that they would have that much of a difference in tires available on the same vehicle.
  18. I always find the resale value point humorous. People will mention that an old diesel will go for 20K while a gas from the same year with similar miles and condition will only go for 10K. Well yeah you paid 10K more for the diesel so that makes sense. It’s worth more but that doesn’t mean it held its value any better.
  19. I still think its funny hearing people talk about putting 35’s on these trucks as if that’s such a massive jump from the factory rubber.
  20. Does anyone know what the factory tint is by chance?
  21. That is really upsetting to hear. I prebuilt my truck and am awaiting an allocation. I would love to get in before the 22 cutoff so I can use the military pricing discount. I heard the build will have to be accepted by may so I guess that won’t happen.
  22. Thank you both for your help. This is my first time buying a car that isn't already on the lot. Add that with the fact that nobody seems to have an accurate timeline on anything doesn't help the situation.
  23. This will be my first truck once it comes in but am I missing something. If the max GVWR is 11,350 wouldn't the 35" KO2s with 3195 still be able to handle more than the truck can? You are still 1,430 pounds over max GVWR. I was planning on the 35x12.5x20 but could always go with the 295/65/20 that has the 4,080 pound capacity.
  24. I am really thankful that I saw this post. I am active Air Force and didnt know the military build discount was so great. I’m on a waitlist to do a custom order and awaiting dealer allocations. Do I get an authorization number now then or wait until they get the allocation?
  25. It just seems like its missing something.
