.. good looking cargo rack.. and it looks like you're parked on top of a piece of the Canadian Shield there as well

Thanks, the rack works well.  We had a nice trip to Killarney Provincial Park.  I love the north!

Looks perfect. What size tires? 33x12.50x18?


Thank you. 33x12.50r17.

Just picked up a new to me '16 GMC Sierra Denali. Traded my Silverado, wasn't originally planning on it but wanted a longer bed and the deal was just too good to pass up.

Some bad ass trucks in here. Here's my humble little Texas edition we just purchased on Friday.

Great looking rig.  6.2 or 5.3 ?  Still quite a few leftover 2018 models up here in Ontario, Canada.  Lots of pre owned  16-17 models but really high mileage on many most of them.  Congrats on the truck and keep us posted on modifications.

Cheers ....

Thanks! 5.3, I looked at a 6.2 but it had more miles and didn't have as many options and for what I need the 5.3 is just fine.

Have't posted in awhile. Not much new other than finally got it de-badged, corrected and coated. Probably exhaust and tune and a couple small things and that'll be it for this year.

Finally snagged a roller by CF.. love seeing trucks in motion, lifted, lowered or stock it’s a rad look. Also with a friend and his newly pro charged beast.

 I've noticed quite a few used 16-17's around me as well. What do you consider "high mileage" for those years? I just picked up an 18' with 15k, but I only average 6-8k a year personally. So I'm thinking in the long run my overall mileage will even out..

I’m in Canada so our mileage is in kms.   I’ve seen some 18 models as as high as 40-50 thousand miles.  Might not seem highly to some folks but it is to me.  Usually average mileage is around 15-20 thousand per year.  As long as the person serviced the vehicle properly with routine maintenance should be good.   Just my $.02.  For a 16-17 model I’d guess around 45-60 K maybe...?..sorry to get sidetracked.

    • "Increase"?   You want to "increase" your turning radius?     What is your truck?  What kind of cab and bed do you have currently?  Is it stock?  Modified?  Lifted?  
    • OP's quote is parts and labor.  Not just parts.     The # you found isn't the right one.  But besides that, the right # is the same price within a couple bucks.  $5802.01.    Now, factor in labor and fluids.  Book time is 17.1 hours for a Colorado 8 speed.  At $200/hr for a dealer average rate, its $3420 just in labor.  We are already at $9222.  Fluid and other necessary items, there's your $400-500 more.      Also.  Your "discounted" transmission.  Which is 99% likely quoted off of GM Parts Direct as that's the MSRP I found on their site.    You failed to note the $597 in shipping charges.  So we are right back almost to MSRP.  $5794.  Oh.  AND, you better have the $4000 for the core charge which you'd have to pay and get refunded, AND you gotta pay to SHIP THE CORE BACK.    So now you'd have paid MORE to buy that one online yourself, even after you get your core refunded.  
    • I would like to know if I can increase my 2025 Silverado 2500 HD
    • Length/amount of data capture will be important to consider, sifting through 5 minutes of a data log can be enormous when it is stored in milliseconds. Being able to find the 'event' let alone decipher it.   Presumably the driver would notice something and hit a button to capture the 'window' of data. That window has to be large enough for the operator to recognize the event and react accordingly.    The data has to be able to be retrieved easily.   The data has to be able to be understood. Which is the biggest challenge, dealer techs won't even know what most of it is and would likely not even look at it if an owner brought it to them. Meaning the owner, the least educated/qualified, trying to understand it.    How will the data be presented? Could specific PIDs be selected and a timelapse graph be watched? How will a specific value be noted as abnormal? Additionally, a good data logger would be able to 'learn' normal values for a specific vehicle and flag abnormalities automatically. It could in theory watch parameters degrade over time and suggest maintenance as needed. (If the MAF reading begins tapering off for a given set of other readings - MAP, throttle position, Ambient, etc.. a flag to check air filter.) With the amount of data available, a device (really the vehicle rather than an additional accessory) should be able to do more than issue a DTC. It should be able to run the full diagnostic suite automatically and present a solution rather than a code. (It's not the 90's anymore). The technology is available for the vehicle to not just say "P0087", it should know low fuel pressure, check other PIDs to narrow down the problem itself, and determine if it is a lift pump, high pressure pump, regulator, leak in the fuel line, clogged filter, etc. Even if it can't narrow it down, it should be able to guide the user to the likely problems.   This would be a major problem for dealer service departments, which are the manufacturers customers it is in their collective best interest to NOT have this available to the consumer.   Further, if the owner is going to be the primary consumer of the data, it's got to be at a consumer price point vs. dealer only specialty tool price.   This group is more 'involved' in their vehicle than general public/consumer and will have knowledge, experience, needs and desires that are quite different from the market at large.   
    • I put the prof up. If you read what I posted. You can see that housing, cars and income are in line with the era we were talking about. It’s harder in some places easier in others. Let’s agree to disagree and put this back on track, OK? We both are pretty stubborn and hard headed. But I bring receipts. If you wish I will not respond to you in the future.
