I will be selling them and the tires too in about 4-5 weeks.

The BFG's were just put on at Thanksgiving. Ton of tread left.

Sadly I'm not in the market for them at the moment. They'd be a great buy if I was.

Lots of fancy trucks in here! Here's my rig!

That's only the second 1500 in my life I've seen with a 5th wheel setup. How's it pull?

Zach - you gotta stop posting the pics. I keep drooling on my keyboard. Your setup/color is one of the best I've seen on here!

Tell you what, I have towed with my parents 2012 duramax 3/4 ton, my grandfather's 2006 durmax 3/4 ton, our 2002 dodge dually 1 ton farm truck, and our 2013 dodge dually 1 ton, and this 1/2 ton pulls that 20' steel gooseneck stock trailer like nothing. Its just a curt under bed gooseneck hitch too, nothing fancy.

 

When you load it up with 10 or so 600lb yearlings its working, but it not dogging it. I don't drive like a raped ape either, empty i'll drive 110km/h and loaded i'll drive 90-100 depending on how windy it is. Side winds really suck the fuel, something like 25-29L/100km, but when there is no wind or a tail wind I typically get 21L/100km.

 

Air bags are a must though. It doesn't squat it down that much when its empty, but when you get animals that like to stand at the front of the trailer and not evenly dispurse some of the weight over the axles it will squat it down a couple inches with out air bags.

 

All and all it hauls pretty good. By all means it ain't no duramax, but when its within the GVWR, its pretty hard to justify spending $45g on a 1/2 ton that can tow what you need, than buying a 3/4 ton duramax for $75g.

The ones for the license plate are Pilot brand I happened to find at Wal-Mart and they fit great, be sure to push them down all the way into the socket though.

I was gonna ask if that was the B&W turnover ball. How do you like your Curt? My girls are getting more and more into horses and my F-I-L has a gooseneck already. He traded in the tag trailer.

The curt is nice. We have a B&W in the new dodge, they are basically the same. I might be wrong, but I think curt is Canadian made? It was roughly $120 cheaper and I added the 6" off-set ball to keep it away from the cab a bit more. On top of that they shipped it to my farm for free.

 

I didn't install the B&W, but the curt was pretty easy to install, just a little time consuming. Took about 5 hours to install (but there was quite a bit of beer drinking in between lol)

I have that same exact wheel/tire combo on my 01. I'm looking to possibly buy a 2016 so I may have them switch the tires if I do.

Just put them on today. Drove to the car wash and back. I love them! Still rides nice and they aren't too loud. Really changed the overall look in my eyes.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.

      Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
