    I did the gmc performance exhaust on my 19 before it got totaled, I just picked up my twenty and not sure what to do either. I may just do the Borla touring... we will see. Your truck sounded good at idle.

    Nice walk around, owning both a 2019 and 2020, the Ultimate with 6.2L is a nice ride. I would however have to disagree with your comments on the tires, bottom line, they are horrible, and are quite frankly not safe in snow and no way would I even consider taking on a beach. They are a fine summer tire and that’s about it.

    Just picked up my replacement 2020 Denali Ultimate replacing my 19’ Ultimate that got totaled, originally planned on going with the BDS 4 inch lift but just ordered the suspensionmaxx, 2.5 level front and 1.5 rear.. Is this the right choice? on my 19, I ran a 2 inch Rough country with arc lever extender, and 1 inch steel block in rear. I plan on keeping the OEM 22’s and either going with a 305/45/22 same diameter as OEMs or a 33x12.5x22. anyone else out there do this setup? Any thoughts on the tire sizes above,? Really like the Nitto Ridge Grapplers. any input appreciated. Pictures welcome. jeff

    Me too but I was opting for the 4 inch vs six so I can still get it in my garage

    So went to a dealer to finalize a deal on a replace Denali Ultimate and saw this Rocky Ridge at4 loaded to the hilt sitting there. Long story short, took it for a drive, road way better the.n I would have ever expected. granted there is a price tag with it, but fairly close to my loaded Denali both with 6.2 and same options inside, any good bad or, ugly real world experience out there? need to see if it will fit in garage tomorrow.. any input appreciated.

    Thanks folks.., I started my search yesterday, I saw the carbon pro online, the only thing I’m not a fan of is the tow mirrors, I may just have one built and get it exactly the way I want, most around this area are “in transit” and no eta for arriving at dealerships, and the ones that are in transit, most do not have all options I’m looking for. I did find one exactly the way I wanted it, however when I called it was just sold in Alabama. I then thought I would check out the AT4’s, but I’ve been a Denali owner for years. This was my 6th one,

    He was driving a 90’s Jeep Cherokee, his driver side caught my drivers side as he attempted to swerve around a cruiser. His front tire ended up in his cab. He definitely felt it,,

    How do you like your AT4??

    Ended up getting nailed by a car being pursued by the police, truck was officially declared totaled and is heading off to the salvage yard. Frame bent, cab tweaked, and all drive components are busted or leaking,, not to mention all the misc. body panels and supports.etc.. Truck definitely did a great job protecting me and my passengers. 60 mph crash. Starting looking for a replacement, same truck, ultimate with 6.2lL, dealer inventory in the northeast is low, looking for satin steel metallic, 6.2, performance, carbon pro, etc. what’s the order timeline? any thoughts on the diesel version? Seems to be more of those available..I’m not towing basically a weekend truck, this one only had 8k on it, btw the looser that hit me had no license, no registration and ya you guessed it, no insurance....

    Long story but a police chase caused a direct hit of the suspects car into the front drivers side at an estimated 60 mph this past weekend, I was at a dead stop. No airbags deployed, hoping this is totaled, appears the frame is bent as all gaps around doors in both sides look off, is this normal for airbags not to deploy? Of course driver had no insurance, no license and non registered vehicle, I will say, he is probably real sorry he hit me vs a Prius, truck took one for the family. We are all soar, but happy to be still standing.

    Got mine on eBay.. 1150 shipped,

    Currently running 0w20.. could be the pump noise, not sure, I’ll take a video and post tomorrow morning.. is the oil approved by GM? It has all and more certifications to comply with Gm specs,
  13. jbshoo
    So I maybe crazy, but you know when you change your oil and when you start the engine after putting new engine oil in you get a quick lifter noise until the engine pressure comes up and oil flows throughout the engine? Well I get that noise every morning, engine must completely drain to pain and it’s like it’s got that noise of starting dry every morning after sitting over night, 5609 miles, I changed original oil at 3500, replaced with Amsoil Signature and Amsoil filter, i anyone else hearing this?
  14. jbshoo
    Anyone with real world experience on this?

    After another 5 days at the dealer, with the assistance of a Gm engineer onsite, they replaced the video processing control as well as rear camera. got the truck back no errors yet, however mine is more of a gremlin, always fails when you need it, Kinda like landing gear on a plane, I pulled the truck into my garage, and park assist is now not working, Front camera is supposed to come in when sensor sees something in front,, nada. WTF.. called dealer back, engineer coming back Friday. Lane assist is not working either, this is the last and final straw. Have papers all filled out for lemon law. One more failure/blue screen and I’m done, I’ve had the truck for 8 months, 4700 miles, 19 days at dealership, 5 + repair attempts, same issue. i think I’ll buy a junker, and upgrade my boat, I’ll update all after this fix if there is one, on a good note, both recalls were also completed and I have brakes, and my seal belt is still working,, no fire yet,

    Leveled my front with 2” and would still like a little more rake in the rear. Currently there are no blocks installed, anyone add a 1 inch block? Anything needed to be done with the shocks and ARC. Really don’t want to get into extended shock brackets, let me know,, thx,
  17. jbshoo
    I’m having the same problem. Opened case with Gm, Gm engineer engaged waiting for appt. I have already told them i(gM) that they are not using my truck as a Genea pig and rip my truck apart to find the problem, the truck has a gremlin, if they cannot isolate and guarantee fix, I want out, I’m done, 67k on a truck and my wife won’t drive without cameras, that’s why I bought this, Totally disgusted.. 4200 miles, been to dealer 5x, radio modusl replaced, software upgrades multiple times, errors are extensive.. I’ll keep you posted

    I’m back.. 3900 miles now,, blue screen is back.. brought back to,dealer..they pulled codes and there was about seven codes. They cleared all codes, I was then backing out of the service area, and the screen blue screened again. Called service director over, they pulled codes again, it was loaded with the same fault codes.

    Suspensionmaxx is the only I have found to have a 1.5 block with a shock extender. I decided just to go with the ready lift 2” front, still have 1/2 rake. There were/are no other blocks that I’ve found for the Denali with Arc. Would like a 1 inch at some point.
  20. jbshoo
    Anyone have any first hand experience with the suspensionmaxx 2.5 front and 1.5 rear level kit with ARC bracket? Any concerns with front end wear issues? looking to get the rake out of my 2019, this looks like the best option that I’ve seen

    Update on mine.. 3 weeks now since last update, module repaired as well, no issue so far, My problem. Was always at quick shift after start. This appears to have fixed for the time being,, we will see.. only 3k on truck.
  22. jbshoo
    Truck back at dealer 3rd time. Blue screen back..
  23. jbshoo
    So after being without my truck for over a week, the problem of service rear vision system was cleared, two weeks after and it’s back. I drove a total of 400 miles and the dam thing is not working. I’m at the point now where I am talking to the dealer to unload this thing. I’m done, 67k Denali, 2300 miles my dealer replaced the radio module and reprogrammed with all updates during the original repair effort,
  24. jbshoo
    Dealer attempted update on mine, it failed, they replaced radio module, reprogrammed and updated, no additional issue so far,,except for a few more grey hairs.
  25. jbshoo
    Same issue here. Dealer tried updating software and now radio is dead. Wtf. Only 1809 miles. In loaner now,, confidence is not high. Blue screen happened 2xs.. dealer advised that they unhooked battery and will let vehicle sit for the night and in hopes this has some magical affect and corrects the issue. here we go....
