Canada doesn't sound like a very pleasant place to live. Sounds very communist

It is difficult for me as a Canadian to ignore this comment. If it is intended to be humorous, it needs rewording. If you are generalizing about a whole country because of one individual's vehicle issues then I would like the opportunity to inform you otherwise. Best practice is to avoid making such comments.

Thank you for choosing your words as careful as you did. If there is an issue, let's take it off line... I for one would like to keep this forum as relaxed as it is. For me, this is a place to gain knowledge, give knowledge, have a laugh, make a joke, get new ideas, hopefully inspire some as well, maybe meet a friend or two, escape from my daily life and spend time with others who share a common interest.

 

Please, let's all not take that away from any of us...

I got my LC2i the other day, and just went and picked up some 1/2" MDF for a box build today. I'm second guessing not going with the 3/4", but well see. It'll have bracing inside and it's only a 400w woofer that won't be flexing to its limits.

It was intended to be humorous and satirical. I view this forum and any online interaction as a light hearted environment. I'm rarely confrontational here, and I believe that people take online interactions much too seriously. So I won't apologize for my comment, as I don't see it as overtly offensive or in poor taste. But I was born after the fall of the USSR, so I will concede to you that the older generation might take communism as a more significant issue than I do.

And what exactly does an implied threat of violence do?

If we're going to delve into taking things literally then you could stand to reason that "take it offline" equates to let's take it out back/to the parking lot, which is generally associated with violence.

That's funny as we in the communist state didn't see any implied threat of violence, on the other hand if my cat would just get her arse of my keyboard!!!!

I believe we all want to keep this discussion focused on our trucks and not offending people. Taking such an off topic discussion elsewhere is not a threat. There is a section on this forum dedicated to "off topic" discussions. I apologize for my part in getting off topic. I want to know when my comments may upset or offend anyone and I appreciate feedback.

    • I’m definitely interested to hear the end result here. 
    • 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.
    • 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. 
    • Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.
