That's awesome and looks like you had a great time!! I hate being a Displaced Texan one of these days I'll get to move back home.

 

Wife and I floated the Frio River in Texas this past weekend. Absolutely gorgeous and the water was flowing nicely. She caught a pic of me coming back over the low crossing.

That looks very good. The spacers add a perfect width to your trucks stance.

Almost looks dangerous. I wonder how many trucks have slid down the ramp? Cool pic but "better your truck than mine" lol.

It's a well traveled crossing. There's a few along the Frio. Water isn't running that fast and it's only a couple inches deep.

I am new to the forum and this is my first truck purchase ever. I am coming from a 2011 Mazdaspeed3, but I needed a little more room for the fishing and hunting gear.

 

I just picked up 2015 LT Z71 Custom Sport.

Hey y'all. New to the forum here. Lovin everything I'm seeing so far. Just picked up my new 15 silverado midnight edition with a couple different options. Still waiting on the borla exhaust. Should b in this week at dealer. Did S&B intake and wrapped front end with xpel ultimate and coated entire truck with cquartz finest. What all y'all think ?​attachicon.gifIMAG0216.jpg

How much for the xpel? I am looking at getting my all terrain bumper only done, but with 3M wrap. Hook up price was $200

 

Any opinion which product is better xpel or 3m? I have never used a protective wrap before and it is for a black truck too

 

Just had my bumper repainted along with some other work done. Dealer did the bumper for free at least, had many rock chips

I found that the 3m wrap is a hair more visually unappealing. Meaning, I think it may be a little thicker so u can notice that it has been installed. Unless u get a full hood wrap. I think the xpel did a better job at concealing it's even there. As far as protective properties, their both great quality. Not one better than the other. But the xpel dries water better and is little more resistant to scratches and coloring. I got a full front bumper kit including partial fender and side mirrors and also partial hood wrap for $1000. Hope that helps.

I'm jealous, nice truck!

    • 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. 
    • Any grease on the stud threads of any kind?   Wheel studs should have NOTHING on them for proper torquing and so the nuts don't back off.     Are all of the mating surfaces clean?  So wheel, rotor and hub?     We've had plenty of trucks at work with that wheel, this is a first to me.  Makes me think they've got a lube tech putting anti-seize on all the wheel studs or some kind of grease, and they need to stop doing that.  To have 11 other trucks with the same exact problem.      
    • I was a Chevy guy for years, then switched to GMC because I liked the looks better.  I'm actually thinking I like the Chevy looks better than GMC for the first time in a lot of years.   One thing I know for certain, the new GMC dash is hideous!  Chevy wins this one!
