Not sure yet. I can definitely hear a difference. Has a nice growl to it. Only drove it down the street and had to get back to work.

Do you have any drone? I put the afe on but returned it because it was causing a really bad drone when cruising.

I installed this thingy on the top of my 2017 6.2L. Not really sure what it does, but my truck goes really fast now.

I was waiting to take the air dam off until I got my coilovers installed, but I couldn't wait anymore. Especially after almost ripping it off on a railroad tie parking spot marker.

I did have a bit of assistance from my helper.27e2670fff0f6f34594d0462b9860d58.jpg88efa5e02b176fb60848961e6e7402ba.jpg

Do you have a shot from the front? Interested in doing the same to mine.

Put a strip on each side under my running boards. I'm not the happiest with it. Would have like to matched the LEDs better but can't complain for picking these up for $3.

Here are the Samsung reverse LEDs. I didn't buy enough to do the cargo because I was debating between them and the Phillips. I may buy the Phillips and compare.

Can you throw on the HD cold air hood with that kit?

Sierras are easier. Lol. The Silverado will have to have the entire HD front clip put on.

Details of parts and install?

I used this strip of LEDs. My local radio shack is closing down and got these for $3. I wired it up using various methods from all the other lighting threads. Used the bolt right by where the hood latches as the ground and hooked the hot through the switch to positive terminal. If you zoom you can see it. I used shrink wrap to make it look more "Profesional". The switch is just from auto zone and I picked it because of the on off part. They had some that glow which prolly makes better since being you will be trying to find mine.

I bought a lot of stuff when the RS by me closed last month. $12 energizer batteries for $1.30. Yes please. Lol. I got 50 diodes that we use for the light mods for under $1.

Got a Rhino liner sprayed in today. Looks really good. Incase you are wondering why Rhino? About the only local option and had one in my old truck that was very tough.

I've got two sets of the non retractable factory ones if you're interested. Brand new never used, been meaning to post them for sale for a while now lol. Wife keeps busting my balls about them.

I'll try to remember to snap one tomorrow. It's a huge difference in the front profile.

I'm looking forward to seeing your Philips vs Samsung comparison if you do that.

Picked up a pair of SYPPO tow mirrors. They're manual fold and extend with cargo, marker and turn signals. They seem to be very good quality, look identical to my BIL's mirrors on his 2500. I'm hoping I get a chance to bolt them up this week...

I finally installed/swapped out my ODB II 3-way splitter with an added on/off switch to one of the connectors to kill power to the Range Tech AFM Disable. Eliminates me having to pop it off when not in use and draining the battery.

I'll have to get it for you tomorrow, sorry.

 

The dealer called yesterday and let me know my new gas pedal was in, so I dropped it off a bit unexpectedly.

 

The old pedal was sticking about 80% of the way down. Almost like you had it to the floor, but then when you really get on it, it slides past whatever was catching it (maybe a detent or burr in the machining or something??) and then goes all the way down. The service manager said he didn't notice any issue when I had it in for the first oil change, so I had to have the tech come sit in it while I was there and stomp on the pedal. After which he said "oh yeah, definitely not working right. We will order you a new one". Awesome service so far from Garcia Buick in Santa Fe, I recommend them if you're in the area and need anything.

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Byrds8 · Posted

      100% agree, there are a lot of variables. I definitely do not drive I’ve like a grandpa but also don’t drive like I stole it. Truck is currently in the shop so I’ll have to get weight later. The price for driving it doesn’t bother me. My precious was a 6.2l so the cost between the two is a wash.

      summer road trips in the 2026 2500HD

      By c4racer2 · Posted

      that is pretty awesome MPG there!  I think so far one observation is these trucks do way better on MPG under 65mph vs 70+ and they really suffer at 75+   I noticed on the stretches into NE on 76 and 80 which is posted 75MPH and I was doing 82 I was getting more like 13.

      Bent valve in 2025 GMC Canyon Denali - Requires engine swap at 14K miles

      By newdude · Posted

      No ETA is available for that engine at the moment in the GM system.   I would start at the dealer.  Try and talk to the parts manager or service manager and see if they can start a CX Connect case and get an ETA from GM on when engines may be available.  If they just check Parts Workbench and say "no eta", they aren't trying hard enough.  They need to do a CX Connect and chat with DPAC to find the ETA.

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I would have to read back to get a better picture in my mind of some of the other comments and what they were using for a driving scenario they based the fuel mileage off of. That is why the fuel mileage conversation is extremely difficult to make fair comparisons from. If I was to be living in town and only driving around town, light to light and some longer stretches that doesn't have a light every block, and the usual stop at a grocery store and the bank and so on and so forth, my fuel mileage even during the summer time would be so bad with my truck I don't even want to know how bad it would be !. Then add in winter time and idling to warm it up to clear the windows and driving through snowy streets etc, large heavy trucks with gas engines have NEVER been worth crap for fuel mileage and why some little pot licker of a car with wheelbarrow tires and a 1300 cc four cylinder non turbo engine was the ticket to using a mere fraction of the fuel over a full size pickup.    By the way my truck has the 34" tires as its a HC but not the BFG KO3 tires ( that was an option for my truck but the sales guy couldn't figure out what the tires actually were so that never got on the order until it was too late to change the truck order ). So what fuel mileage your getting actually sounds good for "town driving" and with my truck when I go to town the fuel mileage keeps increasing as I get closer to town because it takes quite a while to get the driveline oils warmed up ( and why it always shows better fuel mileage on the return trip from town because its already warmed up ) but once I am in town that fuel mileage average just keeps dropping the more I mess around town and then has to recover back to something reasonable again by the time I get home for an over all average.    I'd be curious what your sticker says for the factory weight of your truck, mine is close around that 7700 lb due to the options it has. But anyway the long and short is, vehicle weight, higher rolling resistance heavy tires and a hefty driveline and a relatively large gas engine make for crap fuel mileage in stop and go scenarios, all one can do is drive it easy off the line at each stop and as my dad had said over the years, drive like a raw egg is under your foot and that's the best one can do. Years back with a carbed engine and if the carb was getting a bit out of tune etc as would the ignition system, the fuel mileage on pickups with larger engines was just awful compared to what your getting. We pay the fuel price penalty for driving HD trucks over some little vehicle, that is the reality.
