I also have heavy orange peel. Is this across the board? Should we all be bring this up until they fix it? I'm not to happy with that part.

 

I removed the Z71 stickers off the side of the bed. I now have Z71 on the front grill with emblem, LTZ with emblem on the rear, and only the trim on the sides. Looking much better. Next is the color matched emblems.

 

Have a good weekend all.

You drove it off the lot with orange peel. They will laugh in your face if you ask them to fix it.

 

I'm pretty sure most factory paint jobs exhibit orange peel in areas...

My old tacoma had super heavy orange peel across the bottom. But when I looked into it, it ended up being a duracoat clear undercoating to protect the paint

The bottom of the truck does have a protective coating and it looks like orange peel there.The rest of the truck shouldn't have it. As far as driving it off the lot, it was night and the truck had only got there the day before. I custom ordered the 6.2L before they were shipping and waited 4 months.

Yes across the bottom rocker and the bottoms of the bed has gravel guard. It is standard and not a mistake

Yeah I just figured that to be part of the bed.

2014-07-26%2012.31.36.jpgI did this today... ARE Z series. I have been wanting to do the Pop & Lock for the tailgate and now the install has made my job 99% easier since the installer had to run wiring for the ARE lock. So next mod is the tailgate lock.

Installed last week and so far really like them. Took about one hour to install.

    • Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.  
    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
    • I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!
