Well I didn’t total my truck, the dealer totaled my truck. They were replacing the steering wheel for me last week while I was traveling for work; it had a small cut when I bought it so they ordered me a new one.


From what I understand, the lot attendant was parking the truck and turned too tight into a 2014 Silverado. He damaged the rear passenger door, cab, and box side.


I’m not too upset, I have a SLT All Terrain Crew for a loaner in the meantime, and to make things right my new truck will have GM 22s, which I opted out on when I purchased mine.


I'll know more details after I visit the dealer today. Here are some pictures

Totaled?????

 

I guess totaled is the wrong word to use, but considering it is brand new with only 3,000 miles they are just replacing it

That's a good move by the dealer. I'm sure they'd be pressured to do it anyway, but it's good they are just taking care of it without a fuss.

Seeing your truck was the reason I wanted to get these 22s! Beautiful. How are the tires? Ride okay with the 22s?

I love those wheels. They remind me of the Spider wheels that were on the 2009+ Z06 vette.

Tires are awesome. It's honestly the best riding vehicle I've ever owned. The Bridgestone's are leaps and bounds better than the Goodyear's on the 18's and 20's. I know several people with over 50k miles on one set of the Bridgestone's. The only thing I hate about the wheels is the time it takes to clean them...

I had a similar situation when i bought a veloster turbo, it was cheaper for them to replace the vehicle versus me “coming back at them with some legal (?) actions” so ended with a new Genesis coupe and very little price to pay in difference! Look at me so now i have a 2013 Genesis coupe white and 14 All Terrain white! love them both

Well unfortunately this truck already sold, so I am going to build a new truck. I have some ideas for this one and get to drive the SLT All Terrain in the meantime.

      New car smell air freshener

      By Thanusdoss · Posted

      I found an odor eliminator spray that neutralizes unwanted smells pretty well. Using it with the car's AC running helps to distribute it evenly around the cabin.

      WTI futures / speculation is just that. WTI futures <> current 4-7% inflation and national average gas price over $4.00/gallon.   The spot price, at delivery, is currently $87-$95/barrel which is why gas prices remain high.   Edit: oH mY gOd mEnTaL BrEaKdoWn In tHE pOsT aBOve mInE.

      He does, actually. In another unrelated video he mentions the president called him in the middle of the night to relay some information on a cause (religious based) that he's invested in. Glenn expressed concern that another leftist administration could wield too much power with some procedure the Pentagon was using, classifying certain religions a certain way. Being that he is LDS (Latter Day Saints), he gets hate all the time from ALL over the political spectrum, so he's invested in this. Trump called him back at 5AM to tell him he had made some changes to that classification.   So, yes, they are and have been in contact regularly since the start of the administration. Glenn, of course, always asks his permission before discussing anything on the air.   I already spent an hour or more just searching for these videos. I may have my numbers wrong - I'm not a numbers guy. It may have been a MILLION barrels, not 1.5. The point is, our President, by his actions, gives a crap about America, and US - this is completely OPPOSITE the actions of the prior administration who projected hatred for anyone who wasn't following the left's edicts in lock-step.   Remember, they called January 6th an "Insurrection", when there were ZERO weapons among the crowd, undercover FBI agents agitating the crowd, along with paid leftists acting as aggressors, egging the crowd on in an attempt to whip everyone into a frenzy. It's all been proven.  Pelosi refused Trumps request for more National Guard troops. This smells 100% like an inside job for those with critical thinking skills. Only a handful of guys in the crowd got wrapped up in that, thankfully, but EVERYONE was searched out based on cell phone data, and charges were brought against many. And 6 or so people were locked up and left in solitary confinement for YEARS with ZERO due process!! If you give the slightest crap about our Nation, REGARDLESS of your political leanings, this should frighten you to your core. This is what men suffered, bled, fought, and died against 250 years ago!   This has gone FAR BEYOND left vs. right. This is a  threat to America, and our way of life. This is PRECISELY why Trump, a BILLIONAIRE who could have chosen to take Melania and sit on some tropical island that he could afford to buy himself and RELAX, instead chose to run for office, get hate from literally every corner of the media, get ATTEMPTS on his LIFE constantly, and begin to repair some of the severe damage that's been done to this Great Nation.   I don't know why I bother wasting my precious time here. Everyone has their minds made up. They won't realize we all were correct until it's too late ... after they elect another tyrant that hates America to office (Obama), or another puppet whose administration is secretly running the show behind the scenes (Biden).
