This is a stock photo from GM but it is EXACTLY my 2014 High Country in every detail. All I've done since 3/30/16 is to buy a K&N to help my baby breath better. I bought it used this past week with under 20k miles and immaculate condition throughout; and non-smoker.

 

Very impressed with how QUIET this truck is with DI. I can hear a little bit of the DI tick when standing outside but that is dampened with all of the work on the cyl heads and exhaust shielding. Not planning to change a whole lot.

 

I'll miss my 2003. It was sporty for an LS but I had made some appearance and light performance upgrades. Needed something that I could take the boss and peers out to lunch in as well as on long trips with family. REALLY wanted a crew cab and when this came up on the lot under $43K and equivalent 2016 new are listing over $57K, my decision was made.

 

Upgraded exhaust may be in the future but way down the road ;)

 

Traded in my tired 2003 Silverado sport side with its trusty 4.8L

From the other night when I installed my VLEDs! There was a heavy mist/fog that made for some pretty cool picture opportunities!

Hey man nice build. Quick question, I did the same thing as you with replacing the amp step strips. Unfortunately mine look kinda purple which look horrible against the puddle lights. Do yours match?

    • Yeah I don’t leave ANYTHING just sitting supposedly maintaining my battery on a vehicle for RV for multiday periods. I connect a charger as needed to provide a full charge, then disconnect it and either monitor the battery or follow a set schedule for periodic charging. 
    • Get the 5.3. I`m not a Ford guy.😉   I think these L84`s are less problematic than the L83`s. Certainly less than the L87.
    • I have finally paid off my mortgage and can now purchase a new truck. I would greatly appreciate any opinions on the purchase of a new 2026 GMC Denali 5.3L or 6.2L with the Denali reserve package. I am not interested in the 3.0L.  Or should I go buy a Ford?   Thank, John
    • One of the few things I enjoyed about my time in the midwest was taking off on weekend drives. Unlike home, where we are boxed in by mountains and water, those rules don't apply to the inland plains. Roads connect and sprawl everywhere. While Minnesota is flat, it's not completely featureless and there are fast moving rural roads with curves and slight elevation changes. I used to relish heading out in a particular direction with no set destination, no curfew, and weaving through little townships, wherever the roads would take me. Along farms, lakes, or through the deciduous trees... It was beautiful in its own way, and the seasons were so distinct there. Fall drives yielded amazing shows of color and contrast. Summer drives rewarded with the and amber evening glow of the prairie (and lots of juicy bugs).    I do a lot of that here in my home state too. But it's much less mysterious/intriguing. I've traveled most roads in the region, and every road that's fun to drive within a good radius of my house. But every drive, even on the same old roads, is still enjoyable. I know where I can lean hard into the throttle or really throw the car into a curve. There are exercise loops for when I just need to keep certain cars limber, and much longer routes to settle in and enjoy a drive and put some miles on. All the mountains and water make for some really awesome roads for spirited driving. But not all my driving is spirited, for example, that's not really enjoyable in my pickup or this Blazer (that's still here...).   Sometimes a good drive is followed by a ritualistic wash before tucking the car away...
    • 'GMAuthority' is reporting the 2027 HD's will have the L8S 6.6L gasoline V-8.  There was some talk here about the L8S awhile back.  Not sure what changes it will have now as it seems the 2027 emissions regulations have changed from what was originally proposed.  The big question will be is L8S just a stopgap for the last 2 years of the current T1 HD platform or will it carry forward to the next generation 2029 T1-2 HD's?    I assume the L8S will still be a Gen. V engine.
