Switched out CK375s to these. Not sure the name but they're 22" replicas to the ones off the new Denali Yukons. I also added bilstein 5100 front and back. Added Michelin defenders.

Did you notice a difference between the 5100s and stock?

Oh yea big difference. I feel like the ride is smoother and not as bumpy as stocks. With stocks I felt a lot of the bumps in the road but not with the 5100s. We have a lot of railroads around here and that's where I can tell the difference. I can hardly feel anything going over them. I had them installed on the highest setting and truck looks level.

Thank You for information

I have a white 2017 Sierra Elevation Edition. V8 5.3L 6spd 4x4 double cab. 7,000 miles and owned it for 10 months.

 

I have absolutely loved this truck. I purchased this model specifically because I did not want the technology they are putting in all the nicer trims. The first thing to fail on all these new vehicles is going to be something electronic. 

 

Mods in order of when I got them:

 

Tonneau cover and bed mat added

2in front level

Plastidip chrome badges

Black Vinyl Overlays for GMC front and back

Rear wheel well liner to cover the white

Window vents

Added 15% extra tint to the front

Removed AirDam

Installed a wireless charger into the center console where we all put our phones already (one of my favorites for convenience)

Upgraded to 275/65/R20 BFG KO2's

 

Future Mods:

 

Front Runner bed rack (to add a rooftop tent)

Skid plates

rock sliders

Grill Light Bar

Rear dual Flood lights that will swivel

K&N Air intake

Cat Back Exhaust

OEM backup camera install

CVT Mt. Rainier Roof Top Tent with Annex

Programmable AUX swithes (factory replacement with factory work truck switches. Takes the two traction control and bed lamp switches and adds 4 more AUX switches)

 

Only issues with the truck so far are electrical (one of the reasons I wanted less electronics). Radio and Dash light flicker on and off, truck is in the shop now for it. Got a call writing this and they're saying it is my dash cam plugged into the USB port that is causing it. Picking it up today and will see. 

 

Other than that the truck has been absolutely fantastic. I don't want any other brand or model, mine is my ideal truck. Anyways, here is a picture of her right now.

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • 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?
