I did that mod.. twice... :puke: I recommend taking it out and cleaning under it often. You won't believe what gets stuck under those things.

 

 

Congrats!

Thanks guys! Yup, it's our first -- I put a seat saver down so hopefully that will spare the leather. My wife's Santa Fe will be the primary baby mobile, so I'll just have the carseat base in the truck most of the time.

 

And of course, we got the black carseat to match the truck... :puke::sigh:

See we think of these things most people dont. The pic of mine came out very blue with the flash it is more gray and matches perfect in my opinion. We had a gray one that came with a stroller on our registry, well they were out of them so my mom bought us the tan and green one. I was like it doesnt match, they gave me hell about not liking it. Well my wife liked the color so we kept it. That one goes in her Tahoe.

 

How old is yours? Ours is 2 months old, already 14lbs and 26" tall. He is in 6-9 month clothes and already outgrowing them (in the arms). I have already taken 2 large bins of clothes up to the attic.

:puke: jeez, guys matching car seats to their interior color is almost worse than women matching their shoes to their purse

Also I have the same mirror as you :sigh: We just picked up another one because it was a PITA switching them every time we took another vehicle.

I miss the days of the carrier/base car seat. My son is 16 months old, so I now have a full-blown car seat. It's much more intrusive than just having the base in there. :(

 

I did buy a sporty-looking Recaro seat, though...it doesn't look too bad. I mounted it in the passenger-outboard position with LATCH/tether, but I had to remove the headrest for proper positioning. I need to look into a seat cover or pad because, like others have said, the kiddo leaves quite a debris field in his wake! :lol:

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.

      I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!

      I haven't seen inventory recovery from COVID.    In the few random times I 'build my own' truck or SUV, no one has the exact one I want.   GM has been working to lower incentives too for a long time.    A $500 incentive isn't getting me off the couch to go truck shopping.
