  1. Thank you all for your thoughts! Just want to close this one down. I missed it. It was gone the same day the ad was posted. I have not seen a deal like this one since. Thank you all again!
  2. Thank you for that! I am with you on the color. I was not wanting black but this one does tick all the other boxes. I will think on it some more. Thank you again.
  3. What I have currently is a 2007 Suburban LT, 188k, I have had it for 6 months and so far I have done a New trans, trans lines, radiator, water pump, alternator, battery, brakes, rotors, coils, plugs, wires, ALL fluids (and I mean EVERY fluid has just been changed). Good Michelin LT tires, Trailer brake that I have never used (prev owner), plug in AFM disabler, new wipers all the way around, no cracks in glass, back up cam, Kenwood head unit. Interior is pretty clean! I just replaced drivers seat cover and center console. Heated front seats. No rips/ tears, etc. Carpets are not perfect but for almost 20 years it is in decent shape. Everything works, all the 4WD modes work, no check engine lights, TPMS lights, etc. Solid rig mechanically. I just completed a trip from CO to GA and back, zero issues but cosmetically, she is a little rough. Cons: Some hail (mostly on hood). From the previous owner, it looks like someone did some really bad paint work on passenger side rear door and rear panel (clear is pealing). There is some very light surface rust at the very bottom of the passenger side rear door (from the bad paint prep) and a tiny spot above rear wheel well. No rust underneath. Corners scraped (previous owner). Dash is cracking like all the others but it does have the fabric dash pad on it. This is a second vehicle for us, think a "winter vehicle" for Colorado on the nasty days, daily driver through the winter. I also use this for my moto days and mountain bike rides. Offroad at best is very short gravel roads to the trail heads. I would like to have something similar but maybe in better condition cosmetically, lower miles??? I came across a 1 owner 2019 Suburban LT Z71 46k miles for $35k at a local dealer. Carfax shows oil done every 5-6k miles, no accidents. I know this has the "dreaded 8 speed transmission", but I have had 2 Silverados same generation with zero issues. (I keep up on maintenance). Thoughts on price? Is 2019 an ok year, any issues to look out for other than possible Trans and DOD? I was not really looking for black but it has all the other boxes checked. Thank you all in advance!
  4. How do you "reset the computer"? I am looking at modding the OEM box, adding the AEM dryflow filter. Already have Corsa. Thanks!
  5. I keep an eye on these and for the past few months, Truck Month (June) had the best incentives recently. I worked a few dealers hard to put together a deal last month but could not get any of them where I needed the deal to be in order for me to pull the trigger. Then, going back and looking over their inventories, they have indeed SOLD all of the AT4's I had looked at. AT4's are fairly hot and supply is somewhat low. You know what that means as a consumer.
  6. Nothing on the rear? Truck looks great! As for the air dam, if you live in snow country, I would pull it off for sure!
  7. That is the best deal I have seen! I have been trying for a deal close to that, no dealer within 500 miles/multiple states would even nibble. Enjoy your new truck!!!
  8. Following your journey as I am on a similar path. AT4 loaded, MSRP at $66k, they had it listed on their site for $56k (with all the stacked incentives that no one qualifies for) for "Truck Month". I was trying to work a similar deal as you but got NOWHERE. I was willing to go up some just because I did like the truck so much. Nope, nothing doing. I have since expanded my search out multiple states...
  9. I picked out a '19 AT4, had Sunroof, Prem Pkg, Tech package with all the cams, Performance Pkg with intake and exhaust. Sticker was $66,5xx and they were advertising it at $56,500. It comes time for the numbers game and of course, their "advertised price" included every rebate available all stacked. HA! They came back with their piece of paper, their sales price was higher, much higher than advertised and they would not even give me KBB TRADE IN (Dealer Trade in Value) on my '18 SLT. I stood up, thanked them for their time and left in my "old" truck. These guys are supposed to be the VOLUME dealer in my town. HA! I guess my town has too many people buying trucks.
  10. This sounds backwards when looking at the diagram from Elite. The 'clean air' outlet from catch can should be going to throttle body.
  11. I am a little confused by the Installs shown here as well as the ADD-W1 Instructions shown in post #1. Hoping we can sort this out. ADD-W1 instructions shown in Post 1: So the picture on the left shows the "dirty air" coming into the catch can as "Inlet". This makes sense as the dirty air comes into the can, swirls, larger stuff drops to bottom, vapor has to make the way up and THROUGH the internal filter/baffles (and other media if added) and exits out the "Outlet" as Clean Air. This is how both the RX and the Saikou system works. The picture on the right though, with the red arrows, shows the exact opposite, which makes no sense. It looks like the dirty air is routed straight into the ADD W1's "Internal Filter", then into the open chamber and out. This seems backwards to all of the information I have researched regarding catch can construction. Am I reading the ADD W1's instructions wrong? Here is the routing (with a video) of the Saikou system for reference: I think the ADD-W1 could be a viable alternative, but it seems like the instructions are backwards (the red arrows), as well as the their "outlet"/"inlet" markings on the can itself. I am thinking the design of the can is solid, but the markings are backwards. Thoughts?
