Today I picked up my Black 2018 Silverado from Aurora Motor Spa in Buffalo MN.  Got it Ceramic Coated. Best $1600 I've spent. It looks amazing.

Pictures don't do justice. 

If you live in the Minneapolis area and are thinking about getting this done, Call Levi and schedule yours. He is top notch. 612-850-1654

Filled my truck up with fallen tree limbs and other yard debris today. Need to dump it this weekend and get the truck cleaned up!

Almost makes me miss my black 2007. But I could never keep it looking anywhere near as flawless as yours.

Wow...you pulling stumps? That’s stout!! It’s gonna be fun.


Love this and it’s probably true [emoji23] I recently got 4.56’s in my truck and crawling over stuff is effortless lol

Til you drive it!  ?

 

 

Are wheels the real-deals or replicas?

It will be easier to keep it clean though.

The wheels are the Real Deal 22's

Take offs from a 2019 Suburban Premier. $3000 option on that. I got them for $2000 when I bought the truck. They kept the 18" wheels and tires that were on it

Tell me about this ceramic coating. I'd like to see how it looks on the ocean blue metallic :)

It's a coating that they apply over your paint after it's been corrected (buffed out) . It's like a permanent wax. Makes it easier to keep clean. 

It's not for everyone though. This cost me $1600 to get this done

Not ocean blue metallic but this is RyanbabZ71's Camaro that he coated himself.

.. I just removed the stock plate bracket (riveted on) and mounted a clear universal plate bracket from Amazon to the plastic trim on the bumper.. I will be installing a curved LED bar between the tow hooks when the weather warms up


Make sure you post pics when you do this, I've been thinking of doing the same thing

They dragged their feet so long on getting the 6112’s out you think they’d be a little more cost competitive to the Eibach kit, is basically the same set up. Unless the Bils kit is made of unobtanium or gold...

From what I know, the eibachs are on par with Bilstein 5100s. The 6112s are a 60mm shock body, pretty sure the eibachs are not

$1600 to get your truck waxed and its the best money you've ever spent.

 

Cant wrap my head around that one

    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
