Here's my 2018 Custom Crew Cab!  Was looking to post in a "build section" but seemed to be gone...?

Absolutely gorgeous looking rig !!  This is what I originally wanted, but couldn’t find any leftover 18’ models.  I ended up with an 18 Sierra Denali Ultimate with the 6.2, still love my truck and happy with my choice.   You put together a really sharp looking truck  sir.  Could you please provide us with the details of the build ?  Fuel Mavericks ?  Thanks

Thank you. Front has 2.5” Motofab spacer and Kryptonite upper control arms. Rear has 2” lift blocks (3” to replace factory 1.25”) and Bilstein 5100 shocks. Wheels are Havok H112 20x10 -24, similar to the Fuel Mavericks. Tires are 33x12.5 Atturo Trailblade MT. My truck also has the 6.2 and I absolutely love it.

Photo from a week ago after a fresh detail. Kind of bored with it this year, torn between leaving it simple/as is, full sport truck build or selling it and getting into a gen6 Camaro.

I'll post some more photos tomorrow but nothing crazy in terms of details. 

 

WT trim with the black out package. Very base in options, only had the black out package added, 5.3L 2WD with locking rear diff and 3.42, carpet flooring and that's it! Roll up windows, no keyless entry ?

 

Added 4/7 Belltech drop, 22" KMC prism wheels, Corsa DB cat back, AFE CAI and Blackbear 91 PCM and Trans tune and some other small stuff. Paint was corrected and coated but need to do it again even though it's only been summer driven, this black paint swirls even if you look at it wrong.

You are very welcome, once again, awesome looking truck!

 

Hard to beat a lowered RCSB in appearance for a custom truck.

I posted it because it's a custom 2 door Tahoe. Somebody took the time and man hours to chop the body and make it a two door like back in the 90's.

Completely agree, it is a pretty cool rig, something GM should build as low run "hot rod" truck.

    • People mislead themselves. Statistics are highly useful indicators.   Here's the tie-in to this thread. If an oil sample tests shows a wear indicator of 7 using cheaper ACDelco oil, and a wear indicator of 2 (lower = less wear) using a particular brand of Mobil oil, and wear has a linear relationship with engine lifespan, anyone could assume that Mobil is reducing wear by more than 50% (let's just say a 200% reduction for you red state people trying hard to do math) which leads to increasing engine life by 2x. Perhaps, in a vacuum, by itself, when dreamed by AI.   Yeah?! That's what the statistic is saying, isn't it?   No, it isn't. It didn't come out and say engine life is doubled. That's a very bad assumption, and a case of severe myopia by assuming something potentially untrue about the only data point in focus.   Average cost of a new car is 50k. You bet it is.   The median cost of a new car is more like 35k. Expensive cars are skewing the perception that "average" now means a $50k price of entry for a very average automobile. And that's not true. People who don't understand statistics twist the living heck out of them to mean all sorts of things they don't actually mean.   "Average" new car payment is $1000/month. Yep, it is. And in that number are all the $35k new car buyers who bring significant equity, and the $25k new car buyers who finance the car for a month just to get a rebate, and then pay it off. Know what isn't in that number? All the payments made by people who don't finance a car.   Picking one's own data point (don't have a car payment, never paid $50k for a new vehicle, my house cost $170k, I afforded a middle class lifestyle on $4.50/hr) is just a data point. Just like earning $25/hr in an area where the median home price is almost $1 Million is a data point. In fact, it's a lot of data points given that 80% of the US population lives in/around major cities. They're not idiots; the vast majority of them do it to make a living because that's where the big money is.   The highs have become higher, lows have become lower, and how your personal mileage varies is not truth for an entire country. At the same time you can't NOT acknowledge the data. While it doesn't paint YOUR personal picture, it certainly tints the reality that you also live in, as does your single data point.    
    • Glad you had success with it. I did as well, but about 5-6 months later it returned. Tried again, same result. This was after the dealer made several attempts and never even got it to slow down.

    • I have a LTZ and it has the shifter in the console, which I like, but, every now and then, it will not stay in Reverse. I go through all the motions, hold the button in, push the shifter forward and watch the dash.  The big red R comes on and also the back up camera.  Then, it just pops out of Reverse with the shifter all the way forward.  So then the game begins.  Back and to Drive, Reverse.  This goes on 8 - 10 times. Very frustrating. Had it back to the dealer and they replaced some kind of computer, but it is now happing again. It is so bad, my wife will not drive the truck, she is afraid of being stuck somewhere.    Anyone else with this PIA problem? 
    • I see where you’re going and I can appreciate that. Statistics can be misleading because of the word average. They say statistics show the average cost of a new vehicle is about 50k. The average monthly payment is close to 1000 dollars a month. That’s statistics for you. I know very few people who pay that.
