    If it's lifting the front and back the same amount little to nothing has to be adjusted. I can't imagine theybwent far enough to reprogram the camera and it never crossed their mind to consider the headlights.

    I know, right? I did a chat session on Chevy.com and she said to keep checking but they have no info. I informed her the trucks are on the lots and she responded with "is there anything else I can help you with?"

    Considering how much is in the kit I think $1295 is a damn good price. Are we sure on the price? Plus install? The trucks already have 33s no lift. I heard a GM rep say 35s on the Trailboss, depending on wheel offset. Personally I think they sit pretty high already. Maybe a 1" lift?
  4. shift_grind
    GM has referred to the 18s as 33s too, in videos. They would look so much better with even a 275/70r18. I wish all the trucks had lower offset wheels. Another 8-10mm would have gone a long way.

    People have called the XXXX year vehicle the last year of freedom for the last 50 years.

    That's the main attraction for chrome bumpers. Otherwise I prefer painted. I don't think the upper and lower inserts being the black ones they use on the LT / RST models would wear though.
  7. shift_grind
    Love that truck. I would have to turn down the chrome a little though. I'd like to see it with the LT grill.
  8. shift_grind
    Yes. Same with the Tahoe's and Yukons. Happens with all new models, especially GM ones.

    Ford did more updates from 17 to 18 than GM did from 15-16. Headlights, grill, taillights even the tailgate. I'm not really sure what point you're getting at with the rest of it.

    Gmfleetorderguide.com. They have shown 24 gallons for sometime under specifications/Capacity. But I heard some of the reviews mention 26 gallons. A vehicle made to focus on towing needs a bigger tank.
  11. shift_grind
    Ford all new in 2015, update in 2018. That completely conflicts with your statement.

    2019 Chevy Silverado First Drive - Exclusive GM-Trucks.com Photos
    Some awesome poster worthy photos. Kudos to Chevy and you/ your photographer.

    I was referring to Ford
  14. shift_grind
    That's for a 2018. 2019 reports to be 24 gallons. 24 is probably ok if you don't tow. Towing you have a 300 or less mile range.
  15. shift_grind
    But they have an optional larger tank. The only excuse to go from 26 to 24 is to offer a larger one. I'd rather they just put a 28 in all of them. That's the perfect size in my opinion.

    It's odd for sure. I think the idea behind the embargo is to let all reviewer's get some good seat time and not feel rushed to have thr first review out. I have seen it on other cars from GM. They're at dealerships with no window stickers. I assume the configuration page for the public will be online Monday. In pretty excited overall. I'd still be happy with a 16-18 Sierra SLT too, but I think I'll wait for a 19 Rado.
  17. shift_grind
    I don't think they'll ever make a truck as bad as the 07-13s again. They didn't have any money then and wrte about to go bankrupt.
  18. shift_grind
    I wouldn't buy a new truck that wasn't 20% off.
  19. shift_grind
    Cherokee and Grand Cherokee are unibody. Maybe they have a zr2 in the works for year 2. Or perhaps there will be a Trailblazer option or model. While these two models are not off-road, they don't pretend to be. Perhaps something that is off-road is in the works. This and the Traverse are the only Crossovers I'd want to drive and that's not because of brand loyalty. I like some of the Mazdas, but find them to be a bit feminine.
  20. shift_grind
    You and I have completely different memories of what a Blazer is. I saw far more Blazer Xtreme's (which the RS reminds me of more so) than ZR2's I rather like the new Blazer, a lot. Same with the Traverse. Equinox was a miss though.

    When do the build and price pages start going online?
  22. shift_grind
    As far as first gear goes, the 8 speed is almost an exact match for the 6 speed and 3.73 gears. But if you ever wanted 33-35" LT tires, the 3.23s won't be great.
  23. shift_grind
    I thought we would have most of the specs by this week, but we don't even have a date as to when we find out more. You can order tomorrow and we know 3 of the 6 powertrain combos and no official engine specs, capability numbers or fuel economy. Will the online building be up tomorrow?
  24. shift_grind
    The LTZ I saw had 275/60r20. 33" no lift. From the looks of it a lift won't be needed until around 34". It was said the Trailboss could go up to 35".
  25. shift_grind
    Those gears are only on the 6 speed. The 2019s don't offer a 6 speed, 8 and 10 only so the 3.23s will be closer to a 3.73 as far as mechanical advantage. The 2018 8 speeds are 3.42 though. I wish the 19s with the 5.3 were 3.42 as well.
