Dealer told me $4100 to take off my 20s and put 22s on after you buy the rims, tires and sensors. I passed. Do you have any side views? I love those rims......

Just as I suspected...Pretty damn sweet

If you really want a set of those rims but don't want to pay the GM price, they finally started making replicas of the GM 22s. Just a heads up!

Do you know who makes them?

Here is my 2014 Rain Forest Green LTZ. I bought this the day before Thanksgiving to replace my 04 Suburban with 202,000 miles on it. Making the switch for a SUV back to a truck was a good thing but I basically Had to redo my set up. I do Paintless Dent Repair for a living and carry just a few tools to get the job done. So far I have added a Bed Rug, Retrax One retractable bed cover, Power tailgate lock, my Bedslide from my Suburban with a few mods to make it fit, 5% tint up front, Chrome grille overlay Plasti Dippped black, Chrome window trim and a 12 volt power outlet in the bed near the tailgate. On the inside I hard wired my Valentine One Radar Detector and made a mount for a Garmin GPS, and added a Phone mount from Pro Clip.

 

Next on the list is a set of Firestone Air bags to help with the extra load I carry which will be here next weekend. And when I have some extra time I'll be adding my Hadley Air Horns, they work well for getting the attention of all the texter's on the road. I'm pretty sure Santa is bringing some other goodies for my truck, hopefully some vent visors , Black Bowties, Hood protector and maybe some mudflaps. If not I'll be ordering some more stuff. LOL

 

Thanks to everyone on the forum for posting pictures and sharing a ton of info on the Silverado. I have been on here for a while filling my brain with knowledge and know how. I seem to be hooked on this site along with two Victory motorcycle forums. Keep up the good work.

My Silverado is the same color. I was contemplating doing the plasti-dip to the grill too. It looks great on your truck. I'm convinced now. Thanks.

How did you mount that light bar? That location looks pretty slick.

I made the mounts myself. Just went and got some 3/8" steel plate and clamped them to my tow hooks. Crude but works and strong as H€ll

    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
