2017 GMC Sierra 1500 All Terrain

 

I wanted a level kit, but the dealership instead installed a 3" block in the back and a 2.5" level up front. Looks kind of awkward.

The grill crossbars were "painted" with Black Halo EFX. It's essentially a professional grade plasti-dip shot out of a paint gun at a local body shop. Hated the fact chevy still put chrome on the midnight edition for 2015. Extremely happy with results and the price point.

 

The Blue "Z's" are outdoor vinyl. Wanted a subtle thin blue line look and found the vinyl at Michael's craft store out of all place. Originally was just going to overlay it over the red but I just couldn't get it exact enough to cover all the Red. So I removed the Red and then put the vinyl in its place.

 

If it's something you decide to do; get a padded stool and a 6-pack of beer lol. The process was not quick. I probably spent the better part of 5hrs removing the Red. I thought it was a sticker but I'm beginning to wonder if it was paint or some hybrid of both. The Red chipped into small pieces when trying to remove it and left behind the adhesive residue from Hell! It required an exacto knife, fine tweezers, goof off, acetone and q-tips.

 

Also, don't do what I did and use a heat gun thinking it'll help with getting the Red to release. It had quite the opposite effect on the adhesive underneath and made it even more of a challenge to remove

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
