Does anyone know the difference between the Chevy and GMC for 2014?

I found a few things...(beside the obvious grill difference, logo, etc) want to know if I'm missing something..

1. GMC has the LED's up front .

2. GMC has black fender protectors.

3. GMC costs about $500 more on average when comparing apples to apples ???

 

anything else?

LED's in bed are standard on SLE and SLT GMC, chrome trim under side windows, aluminum trim pieces in dash. Option packages are laid out different. Different wheel selection. Depends what options, price can come out about the same. I probably missed something. More about which one you like the looks of better.

There's some small things that are different. I think the GMC's have leather stitching on the dash on SLE's, and the Silverado doesn't on LT models. I think they tried to go a little more upscale with the GMC's, and I noticed about a $500 more price premium for similarly equipped vehicles. It's more about looks, I prefer the Silverado looks so that's what I went with. Don't think you could go wrong with either one.

The GMC and Chevy have different Wood Grain in the LTZ and SLT

The GMC SLE comes standard with the 8" Screen, and it is an option on the Chevy LT

GMC has the All Terrain package option

The GMC comes standard with projector headlights, Chevy does not get them until the LTZ

 

These are just a few I have noticed

I found it interesting that the Silverado front end looks retro and the Sierra looks futuristic.

Futuristic? GMC copied the 1999 Ford F-250 front end to the T. Just updated it with LEDs.



Wow it does look just like it doesn't it.

No bashing intended on my part. There are similarities. But I am sure we could point out similarities all day long on all sorts of vehicles. 2014 GMC and Silverado are the best looking trucks either side has come out with in a long time.

Just a GM basher. He and his little man buddies at the Ford forum.. don't understand why this queer hasn't been banned yet.

My 2014 looks NOTHING like the POS in this picture. I have noticed over the past few months since i have joined this forum that you have an opinion in nearly EVERY thread on here and it is ALMOST ALWAYS NEGATIVE! Are you that bored are just extremely starved for attention?

Come on Won_Hunglo.

They have to put the head lights, turn signals and the grill somewhere. And the best place is the front of the truck.

At the same time the truck should look like a "family member".

With a solid and elegant appearance.

 

I think they did a good (design-) job.

 

I like the look of the Sierra.

 

so long

I had never really made the connection with the late 90's F-series but he's right. Now, he chose the work truck picture to be an instigator, but there are basic elements of the design that are similar. Of course, that won't make me like my AT any less.

I felt like the Chevy 20s on the K2s looked Like the 17s from the F150s from 2002. Not in a good way either. At least the Fords weren't chrome clad.

HAHA, nice comparison. All vehicles have headlights and a grill. Lets be honest, ALL vehicles are similar up front. There are only so many ways to make it look different...by this time its harder to NOT copy a previous set-up rather then create a new one.

I agree totally with this comment.

      Thanks; I looked there a few minutes, and I think I can find something. I really never looked there, as I thought it was stuff like PTO/aftermarket bodies/accessories like snow plows.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By newdude · Posted

      This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By newdude · Posted

      2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.

      Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
