Love that blue. I asked the dealer if they could get a blue and they said it was a tough color to find amd would be expensive. Nice choice though!

Thanks a lot! I am in love with the color too. The metallic really shines in the sun. I swear i find myself washing it 2 times a week though thanks to Michigan weather.

Looks sharp. Do you have any "plans" for it?

Thanks bud! I'm super happy with it! I definitely have some "plans" in the works. Before anything I'll throw some tint on the windows. I know I'd like to do a HID conversion in the headlights and the fogs some time.

 

I'm thinking about De-chroming it, although not sure how I am going to go about that yet. I usually am not a big fan of chrome, but really liked the way this one was put together with it; so I've got some debating to do. I liked the all terrain bumpers better, but I liked the options this one had more than the ptm bumpers and options with it. I haven't read up on it much, but If I de-chrome then I will definitely have to do the bumpers; it won't look right to me if I just do the grille,wheels, handles, and emblems I feel. The front and rear bumpers have the sensors in them too, so not sure if I can/will plasti dip them, or try to find some painted replacements; I'll have to research it.

 

I also haven't even looked to see if this exists or is possible, but would like to possibly mod the bottom LED's in the headlights to function as a turn signal. For all I know they already do lol, I'm still figuring out how everything works. Plan on riding with the stock wheels/tires for a good while unless I find an incredible deal. If I don't dip the grille I may go with an aftermarket one, haven't looked at any of those yet either.

 

I won't lift it, I may level it, but it seems to have a pretty level stance already as is.

 

I'm sure I'll come up with a few more ideas lol. Looking forward to it though!

    • We have now!  2027 GMC Sierra  Early look, but I'm a GMC guy and so far I think I like the looks of the Chevy better.
    • HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.      
    • I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it. 
    • So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.
