Just picked up a 2018 GMC Sierra Denali.  Love this truck. I need to get a lift or level.  I am also thinking about replacing the Denali grill with an SLT grill.  I photoshopped what I think it will look like - comments?

 

Here is a current picture of it - all stock

Here is the photoshopped version. I have picked up an SLT grill, I need to get the chrome surround painted black, pick up some red tow hooks and then Plasti-dip the chrome area under the grill.  Let me know, or should I keep the Denali grill?

Do you have any idea how many people would love to trade their SLT grille for your Denali grill...

LOL, you are right,  the guy I purchased the grill from had put on a Denali grill. To be honest, I love the Denali - everything about it - except the garish grill and maybe the 22s also.  I like the Elevation Edition but my primary focus was getting a 6.2L - and every Elevation Edition I saw had a 5.3L.  I absolutely love the get up and go on this truck. I have a 5.3L Suburban and had a 5.3L Avalanche- the 5.3L did not make me happy. So I thought I would get a Denali and the 6.2L with all the extras that come with it and ditch the grill.  I have no intention of selling the Denali grill - sorry - I will keep it if I don’t like the SLT grill and for possible resale. Personally I just think the truck looks better with the SLT grill with the chrome surround painted black, in my case. Plus I like the red hooks from the AT4.  At the end of the day, I can just put the Denali grill back on.

The 6.2L is exclusive to SLT and Denali trims on GMC and LTZ and High Country / Premier on Chevy

You are right. I have to admit, by the time I was at the dealer, ready to buy, I was only looking for a Denali - I did ask the dealer if they had an Elevation Edition - no they did not. And even if they did - I probably would have still purchased the Denali - my mind was made up on that decision.  I like the dash, the fold out step and the fact they had the 6.2L on the lot that day. At the end of the day I wanted the Denali and I will try the other grill - if I like it, I will keep it on, if I don’t then back on goes the Denali grill. No harm, no foul.  Hey it’s worth a try.

Your ride quality will suffer tremendously from the 22’s. I know this cause my dealership surprised me with 22’s on my SLT and understood when I said “NO” and slapped on 20’s. Now I wish I had put on 18’s cause it’s much tougher jumping into E -F rated tires, thankfully, running the CST lift which smoothened out considerably putting everything back to stock geometry. Wonder if there’s a 285/65/20 tire out there that’s C rated?? [emoji848]

Yeah, Im not new when it comes to bigger wheels and tires. This truck has the smallest tires on a truck that i have ever owned. My Excursion is sitting nice with a 7" lift and 37x13.50x22 tires.  

I havent been in a silverado with 22's yet. Id like to see the difference in ride.

It’s not a comfy ride, looks good but ride quality definitely suffers. I’m sure you’ll be able to find an SLT or LTZ with 22’s for a quick test drive. As a daily you’ll be slapping yourself lol. I may even be going to 18’s if I can’t find a smoother ride out of a 285/65/20. My Ridge Grapplers are great tires but do ride harsher being E-F rated.

I’m sure lots of them out there. If it’s bumpy in a Denali with magnetic ride then imagine if it didn’t have magnetic ride

Hmm. See, now there are a bunch of people who hate the magnetic ride and actually take it off. So does that mean it rides worse?  Guess ill have to drive both.  Denali is the only one with it right?

It’s optional on SLT’s too. I’ve heard they’re in the shop a lot and that if not for the Denali package and 6.2 they would’ve been traded in, that’s why I got my 18 SLT Z71 pwemium package with standard bed without it...oh, and didn’t want so much chrome either but I would’ve definitely jumped on a Denali if it didn’t come with that magnetic ride. Anyhow, it’s all doable.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By tararebecca · Posted

      I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need.webcrimsNY

      2026 Sierra 1500 Denali - Sound upgrade?

      By artistemorbidity · Posted

      I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.

      Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
