Here's my '16 Silverado that I got less than a month ago. All I've done so far is the obligatory Weathertech floor liners, mudflaps and I did put on a set of Bridgestone Revo 3 tires.

Haven't posted much on here over the past few years but visited the site almost daily. I started with a black 2016 High Country in September of 2016 and then traded up to a pearl white 2017 High Country in March of 2017 after 6k miles. Actually traded it in for more than I paid for it (Thanks, Bonus Tag). Currently have 24k miles on the 17 and am trading it tomorrow for a GMC Terrain SLT. Unfortunately, certain circumstances have changed with life and it no longer makes sense to have a high end truck right now. Furthermore, my commute has increased significantly and I will hit the 36k warranty mark within the next 4-6 months. I really loved driving these trucks over the past few years and I honestly like this generation better than the 2019+, but maybe they will grow on me as I see more of them on the road.

Sorry to hear you have to get rid of the 17, really nice looking truck! Congratulations on the 18 or 19 (make the best of a bad situation), post some pictures.

What’s your input on the Revo 3’s so far?

So far I'm liking them. Today I put on 160 highway miles to come see my son. Very nice ride with surprisingly little road noise considering it has a more aggressive tread design than I'm used to. If they continue to perform like this, when the time comes I'll put a set on my '04 Z-71.

I’ve always heard good things about those tires, good for you [emoji1303]

Looking ahead to warmer times......winter is dumb, come on spring!

Can you tell me what tire and size you have on that very clean rig?

Having difficulties tonight as most can tell, it's an issue between the computer and the chair, lol.

Good looking truck, red looks great on this body style. Great choice on the wheels, had them on my 16.

What are the specs on your setup?

Not Alot really.  Rough Country 2" level, Falken 33's, window tint, borla XD muffler with GMC tip, Tonneau Pro cover, GMC molded floor mats.

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
