I want to do some things to my new Red truck! Cant figure out which way i want to go with it though. I love the red and black look but i have chrome rims on it. Question is, in your opinion would you black out your red truck or chrome it out? Tail lights, head lights, fender flares, gas cap, etc etc.

 

Please post Pics of your red truck, opinions and advice here in this thread! Thanks

It's really what you like. In either case, please dont black out or chrome the gas cap/fuel door. That's a horrible look.

Does not really matter what others like, it is your truck, what do YOU like? How come no one ever asks for opinions on how their girlfriends look?

chrome it up. I love chrome. hate those gas doors i like the stock ones. You ask for my opinion. some center caps on your wheels would look good to.

Ya the truck came without the caps. IDK how i could get ahold of some since it doesnt say what rims they are on them anywhere?

Don't black out your tail lights and headlights... You'll look like the high school kid down the block.

Red Handles, Chrome or Black/Chrome wheels. Head and taillight covers are 80ish

 

Red is one color I like with black wheels, but I still like some silver showing, wither brushed or chrome...

 

Keep it clean looking don't over do it.

I like blakc trim with very little chrome, but you have to have some. I kept the chrome strip on my grille, door trim, and added factory chrome center caps to my Cragar wheels. Everything else is black or red.

I'm doing black and red with minimal chrome, the only chrome ill have is my front and rear bumper that chrome grill on mine is getting color matched.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.

      Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.
