Well that’s awesome! Guess I gotta order one of these, avoid giving trump some money in the process. Is that the fancy one with the retractable light bar? If you feel ambitious sometime, think you could measure how much it sticks up above the cab? (Stupid underground parking)

It sticks up 6" to the top of the lights from the roof.

New to the site.  Traded in my 07 classic for this black beauty.  Had to do some upgrades right away.  Matching tint, 2" MotoFab leveling kit, 3" Barricade nerf bars, Gator tonneau cover and of course the 18" moto metal wheels with 285/75R18 Amp pro AT tires.  Next on the list is a cold air intake, exhaust and possible paint protection for the front.

Wanting to drop mine back down to stock and pull the read block, and this isn't helping!

 

I know you have a drop kit, but same concept I am going for.  Looks good!

New to the forum, here is my ride.  2018 Chevy Silverado 1500.  Has 6” BDS lift with 22x12 -44 Axe 2.0’s wrapped in 33x12.5 Nitto Ridge Grapplers.  Has always been my dream to have a truck like this.

Maybe similar but my 4wd All-terrain is lowered as u pointed out, with a 3/5 drop. But I still have the rear OEM spacer in, altho I was going to remove it, the drive-shaft would have needed to be shortened IMO if I pulled it out. I was afraid of the drive-shaft punching the transmission from suspension travel downward.

Here is my 2018 Z71 LT All- Star Crew in Graphite that I picked up last week, traded-in my 2016 Collie Z71 Crew and what a total difference in power and space. :)

    • I see some red flags.   - No mention in the Carfax if the oil pump belt was changed.  LM2s had a 150,000mi service interval, and its got 164,245mi on it.   - If something happens to the transmission valve body, the special coverage is expired by mileage.  That will likely be an out of pocket expense, with zero or near zero GM participation if something happened even though its in by time.   - 2020 LM2s seem to need timing chains after 80,000mi at some point.  They fixed this end of 2020/starting 2021 model year engines.     - Long oil change intervals.  7,000-8,000mi on average, probably close to 0% or perhaps to or beyond 0% on the OLM.  Lots of them not at the dealer which makes me wonder how much of the oil ran through that truck was the proper Dexos D rated 0w20 oil and not just gas engine 0w20, which is not the same at all.     - Long fuel filter changes, again likely taking the fuel filter life to 0% or more.  First one went 28,603, second was done 43,094 miles later at 71,697, from there another 46,452mi to 118,149mi, and then the most recent one 37,026mi later at 155,175mi.  So counting its original fuel filter, its had only 4 fuel filters on it.  No bueno IMO.     Good news?    - It has had only two warranty trips to the dealer.  The first free service (end of December 2020 on the Carfax), and the transmission reprogram recall (end of August 2025 on the Carfax).     - Truck did a LOT of moving, so that might explain the lack of emissions related repairs like bad NOX sensors, bad exhaust temp sensors, bad glow plugs, etc.     The "emissions system checked" could just be how something was flagged for Carfax.  GM dealers have to do SAVI reports for warranty repair orders so they scan the truck.  So its possible that is there for that?  
    • Thank you, @Z45!   NOTE - No all repair shop/Dealers reports to Carfax   That is my main concern.  The CARFAX looks way too clean for a 6 year old anything with 164,245 miles.  Even something known for reliability (like many Toyotas) typically has a lot more replaced, like a Nav screen, interior trim, shock/strut, or brake pads.  And surely the last set of tires (installed at ~58k miles) would be bald unless those were all highway miles.   I'm tempted to pay a local dealer to look up the VIN, but am not sure if that will be worthwhile.  Last time I did this, it was 100% useless, and I felt scammed - they noted the bumper was replaced years ago and that's it.  A 5-year old could spot the accident damage, even though nothing was on the CARFAX.   After giving the dealer a call, the truck may have a hard shift, but they have to verify with their mechanic if that's even a concern.  And I've test driven about a dozen of these now, many near Chicago, and half the trucks shift hard/odd at all throttle positions.  The ones with aftermarket lifts/larger tires shift terrible, and 3 stock trucks shifted so violently I thought the transmission valve body was going out.   At this point I'm conflicted, as I need a vehicle, and am coming up short locally.  Northern trucks in this price range tend to have either multiple owners, a lot of mods (lifts/oversized tires without re-gearing), and are generally in rougher shape.   If this truck showed up in your neighborhood for $27k and you had to purchase it sight-unseen, with the possibility of needing a 10L80 rebuild, torque converter, or rear end - would you do it?  I'm convinced most of the 10L80 trucks I test drove are broken, they can't all shift so bad, with massive flares/slipping/lurching and mis-matched downshifts like a teen driver learning stick.
    • From the spy shots, the front end does look like it's borrowing some styling cues from the Canyon. I'm more interested in the powertrain news than the screens though. If the 3.0 diesel survives into the next generation, that alone will keep a lot of current owners interested.  
    • What is this tuner you mentioned that can shut the system off?
    • I had it tested at the hardware store, and it showed no chip. He went out to started the truck today and it wouldnt fire. He waited an hour then tried again, and it started 3 times. In a row. My 2000 cavalier did not have a chip key, but still had a security system.  🤷‍♀️
