Well so far I've had all the windows tinted, removed the muffler and put on a nice shiny tip, and basilisks maintenance. I switched it over to AMSOIL 0w-20 right away and have GM rear wheel liners on order they should be here this week. 

 

Future plans are to get rid of the nasty steel wheels that are starting to rust quit a bit on the lip and under the centre caps. I'll get those K02's off after the summer because they're WAY TO LOUD; the constant droning is driving me bonkers! I'll also be installing my dash cam (front and rear) and will probably add an aftermarket bluetooth kit for the factory head-unit later in the summer. ? Oh and the plastic drop in bed-liner needs to go and it will be replaced with line-x. 

Sounds like you have good list of "Day 2" mods already lined up.

 

Post pics, and ask questions, or provide answers as you go.

2” rough country leveling kit (spacer) 20x10 wheels -15 offset and 33x12.5 tires aturro mt rubs at full lock 

Looks great !  Turned out very nice.  I have a 2018 as well w/ultimate package but with 22” wheels.  Truck is white diamond frost coat.  I love the way the truck  looks now, but wished there were more choices for leveling kits. I really don’t wanna mess with the magnetic ride system.  Truck rides very nice now, but 22” wheels make you feel it on crappy roads.  Was it difficult to install on your truck ?  Magnetic ride create problems?

 

 Thanks

I went with rough country kit because it was kinda cheap like 60 and it came with a bracket that moved the sensor up. It rode very good with the leveling kit installed like stock then I put mud tires on and the ride is good but not like it was ...install was easy lol giant pry bar on the spring slide the spacer in and done. With a 2 inch leveling kit there still is some rake maybe 2 1/4 - 2 1/2 spacer would make it truly level but I’m fine with the way it is. Next is tune ??

Your truck looks awesome! I think I have the same hood. Mine has two recesses or indentations. Yours looks like some sort of scoops were mounted into the indentations, but you said it's vinyl. How about a closer picture?

That's a crazy optical illusion! In your first photo there looks like hood scoop openings, but in these pictures you can see it's just vinyl laid in the recess. Very cool!

Did a 3.5/6 drop and changed to a set of RST wheels. Thought this would be a good excuse to repost my truck.

That looks so good man. Are you planning on keeping the steps?

Thanks. I’m going to drive it for a while like this. Let the chrome get pitted up some more and when I’m ready to change it up. Black out it, change the wheels, and remove the steps.

    • What meaningful corrections were done to fix the "machining errors?"   I bet nothing, because the 6.2 is soon to be obsolete. Why would GM implement any fix let alone an "expensive one?"   Until someone can provide any convincing information that GM did ANYTHING to correct the engines - the 6.2 is no for me.    Which means keeping the 2016 Denali longer until the next generation (6.6?) proves itself.
    • If my father took a Sunday off. We did the Sunday drive. Usually stopping at a Geno’s for dinner that we eat in the car. Six of us with my little sister up front. It was always a Buick growing up. In New Jersey you couldn’t get lost. Not like Texas.
    • Hoooooooly smokes, batman!    
    • I suppose I am Atlas. It can always be worse, eh?   I had a friend once that rolled one payment into another until he was paying the price of Benz for a 10 year old back marker. Wouldn't be often you start a new payment the month following your old one. 
    • I still enjoy the drive   Some people fish when they retire; some golf. I drive. We've lived in the same general area now for twenty eight years and I'm still finding at least monthly some sweet quite little road to explore. When I tell the Mrs. I'm heading out for coffee she knows that could be a five hour event. Often she even goes along.    I like finding new rural routes used mainly by the locals that start nowhere in particular and end the same way. Many in the area of that type are narrow paved and twisty, hilly and run through field and timber. Often along creeks or wetlands. Unfarmable areas of great natural beauty.    After years of this type of exploration they start to fit together. One ending a mile or so from another and you start threading together a new path from a unfamiliar place to a new adventure. Sometimes to a little town of under five hundred that used to be something before the Interstate or some railroad or US highway bled the life out of it that has a small dinner with the greatest slice of pie you've eaten since grandma made her last. A little village museum or library or even a town square park with grand old oak, walnut and Osage orange trees to sit under while you sip you gas station coffee and chat up some locals.    Often they are full of stories about the main streets more interesting buildings and the who's who of the area. Sometimes some hidden attraction or unseen history. Our area is full of old coal mines.     A younger self used to do this going cross country by motorcycle. Only a general area as a destination with no time to get there and no time to be back. Sitting at days end in a 10 unit off the main highway motel under a Sycamore tree yacking with the owner or his one semipermanent guest while I adjusted valves or the chain. Always a wave and a shout "Hey there stranger"!  It's how I came by my love of old Brit iron. There is no such things as a ten minute gas stop when your on a Enfield or a vintage Triumph. Same being true of old cars.    If you take the time to really look I've found everywhere is someplace interesting. Illinois or West Virginia. Different and yet the same.    People are in a more relaxed mood and will talk about anything and everything and if they like you there may be a cupp'a or a lemonade and a sandwich in it. 😉
