truckofwinandawesome Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 I was tooling along on Youtube, when I came Across the Official Chevrolet Channel. I found THIS Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rrmOeq-LKA...feature=channel I think its pretty cool on how they do things at Flint Assembly, and how the NEW HDs are put together!
C. Charles Hahn Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 Awesome! I actually saw one of these new trucks today in person at Lowe's.... a black Denali HD The guy was actually loading lumber into the bed; not sure if this was a manufacturer truck, part of the press fleet, or what the deal was. Absolutely gorgeous truck, I must say.
P71_CrownVic Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 Folks...welcome to the new benchmark. And now I know how they put badging on...
truckofwinandawesome Posted May 25, 2010 Author Posted May 25, 2010 Folks...welcome to the new benchmark. And now I know how they put badging on... so Daddy can figure out how to remove it!
C. Charles Hahn Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 Folks...welcome to the new benchmark. And now I know how they put badging on... Yeah, I had to back it up and watch that part about 3 times.... that was freakin' awesome! Looked like an old dot matrix printer
Royal Vader Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 Agree completely - THE new benchmark! Badging application was cool - wondered how it was done.
truckofwinandawesome Posted May 25, 2010 Author Posted May 25, 2010 What is the code for badge deletion? its RPO Daddy!
MS3DALE Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 What is the code for badge deletion? its RPO Daddy! Actually theres a few RPO codes for decal and nameplate deletion..... "9R1" Deletes either the "4x4" or "Z71" decal from the side of the pickup box "9M4" Deletes all nameplates and decals on the pickup box tailgate "8F2" Deletes decals and nameplates on truck exterior But of course..........theres always the RPO "daddy" deletion option!

ColoradoSkiCountry Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 Wish there was some way to give notice to those folks working in our plants here in the USA telling them "From one American to another, THANK YOU."
