How is the road noise/ride with these Hankooks now that you've ridden with them for a bit? They've caught my eye, great looking with a solid price.

 

 

Love your truck. Like the High Country grill you added!

LOL, oh trust me ... you'll think of something. I got mine on new year's eve, 2015 - just over six months ago, and I haven't even gotten to the liner and bed cover yet. It never really ends. I get mine back tomorrow, had all black Katzkin leather put in, and they blacked all of my emblems out. Can't wait to see it!!!

Make sure you post pics! Who did the work for you? Thinking about leather in mine. You're going to love the blacked out emblems. Looks so good on my ride. 65be146a1122531fe907ebc3aad8aed4.jpg970f5c3433d291f5766392320ce70d0b.jpg Edited by muddy

Yes, sir, I sure will. I think you and I discussed yours once before - yours are painted black, which is the best way to go. I didn't have that option - they had to Plasti-Dip mine, but they showed me the process - they finish it with some kind of clear coat, etc. They pretty much have to around here (northern Illinois), with all the salt and winter crap, etc. The company is called Top Coverage - they're Chicago-area, with two locations. They specialize in doing the Katzkin leather seats, but they also do emblems, sunroofs, etc. I'll post pics as soon as I can.

Mine has the same color door handles as well.

 

I bought the ABS plastic gloss black door handles for mine, but chose not to put them on. The silver paint just looks so much better and there's something just terribly tacky, about sticking plastic handle covers, on a nice truck like that. I decided against it.

Okay, so here's pics. The Katzkin seats - I went with all-black solid leather (no perf), and all-black stitching. They couldn't Plasti-Dip the Texas Edition emblem, because the star is attached to the "edition" piece - due to the way you peel off Plasti-Dip excess, they didn't want to do it. I may just take those off, and buy the black ones, with the white background on the "edition" part. The seats turned out fantastic, can't complain. I paid $900 total for everything - I think the Top Coverage company here, gave my Chevy dealership a discount, because of all the business they give them. Pretty sure I got lucky there, because I was initially quoted $1,300 in total. I always appreciate a discount!

Thanks, but can't take credit - they really did a good job. If you want to get these seats in yours, go see your dealership - if you're in a decent size market area, they should have someone who does their cars/trucks for them. My Chevy dealership usually gives out a loaner car while the truck is being done, as well.

New 16 Crew Cab 5.3. Traded in a 14 GMC double cab v6 for this one.

 

So far I've only tinted all windows except for windshield. No other mods planned in the near future....I hope

      OCI, not when but why?

      What’s missing in all this is patience and investment in the future. Buy a 170K starter home. Ten years later sell it invest in a more expensive home. Eventually you’ll have a 600K home and pay starter home payments. Buy a starter car. Maintain it well. Save the payments after it’s payed for then buy an expensive car if you desire. Buy a tumbler make your own coffee, pack your lunch. Cook your own dinner. Most importantly take care of your car.

      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.

      Poll: Does your truck have the rear window leak?

      By ShotgunZ71 · Posted

      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.
