New guy here as well. Drove a 2007 silverado for 10 years and put 235k on it. Great truck. Bought 2017 Crew Cab Silverado a couple weeks ago. Would have loved to get the Z71 with match painted front end but this 4x4 was a great deal! I am looking to do away with the chrome, what do yall suggest? I will post pic as soon as I figure out how.

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!

I love that interior. I wanted leather, but hate how you have to get the console. doesnt feel like a truck to me and i like the extra flip up seat for the kids if needed.

Bought my 2015 QuickSilver SLE Kodiak Edition in Dec 2015, and honestly haven't taken any good photos of it! Need to change that. I honestly didn't like the idea of a silver truck at first, and actually wanted the metallic blue, but the dealer with the Quicksilver truck threw a way better price my way than the one with the blue one, and it grew on me... simple, clean looking truck.

 

Pictures... Have one as it sat on the dealer lot, had mud flaps, aeroskin hood protector and a Line-X added before I brought it home. Changed the stock halogens out for BPS G7 LED. Ordered a Bakflip MX4 for it today as well. Anyone have bed rails on their silver truck? Toying with the idea but not sure how it'll look. After scrolling through this thread I can see why people ditch the factory rubber straight away... Think I'll wear mine out first though.

Truck is supposed to be ready today, they just have to install the towing mirrors, tonneau cover and change the chrome mudflaps to black chrome, So far they have installed the Anzo LED tail lights, Weathertech floor mats and KMC Wheels, I will get some better shots when I have her but here's one for now.

Well guess I have found a string to subscribe to. I ordered a silver LTZ Z71 last week. It will be quite the change as I have an entirely blacked out truck now. Anyway can't wait to look through some of the pictures and get some ideas for changes and stuff.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      But Grumpy I did show several subdivisions that had homes starting in the 170K range. If you bought a Townhouse or Condo you could go cheaper. Same with a car 3000 dollars in the 70s translates to around 20K today. There are several models at that price. You actually get more for the money. In the 70s I drove a 3000$ car bought a 28K home and made 4.50 per hour. Thank goodness for overtime. Today I could buy a 170K house drive a 20K car and make 25 dollars an hour operating the same machine today. The difference the house, car, machine would be better and have AC. And I wouldn’t be taxed on overtime. And statistically your wife works too. Easing the burden. I thought we agreed to disagree. I brought receipts earlier, showing examples. I think you’re more stubborn than me. I was done with this debate.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.
