Anyone know of an affordable sunshade that'l fit the 2014s? The $100 dealer wants for the one with the GMC logo too much for me. Thank you

I got the "gold" version of the Heatshield version by Protrim in Sept. 2013. Fits nice...at the time, they didn't have one for the 2014 with the lane departure sensor and no one else had one either. They told me that if I tried it and it didn't fit, they would refund including shipping. Got it and it fit good enough for me and I didn't want to wait until they had one specifically to fit around the sensor (mine fits behind it a little). Good customer service at Protrim. I had one in my 2011 Silverado and always liked the way it keeps the dash and steering wheel cool in the Texas sun.

 

Of course, now they have one with a cutout for the sensor.

I bought a CoverCraft custom fit sunscreen - folds up to store and makes it easy to put up and remove daily - also come in colors :-) Seems to be a solid build. It does cover the little red flashing security light on the dash near the windshield from being seen from viewing the truck from dead ahead, but I'd bet most of do the same - no big deal for me.

I used one on my 1997 F-150 and it was still in good shape when I gave the F-150 to my son a few months ago. I bought the new one on JC Whitney's Web site.

Another vote for HeatShield by Canvasworks. Rolls up easily and will last.

Have five of them for all my new and old rides. My 90 sub and 83 GP dash is in great shape because of these and they really help to cut the heat build up in your ride. Do not let the 40 dollar price fool you. These are quality.

I bought a new Gold Heatshield with a larger opening at the mirror for the lane departure sensor. If anyone is interested in my slightly used Heatshield without the sensor opening, I will sell it for $20 plus shipping. It comes with a storage bag that it rolls into. PM me if interested.

I just got a $10 one from Walmart, has two parts and folds up into a plate size circle and stores beside the console.

Custom fit, nice case for storage. Absolutely no complaints thus far.

I reviewed this one and purchased it last night. The others that were cheaper - when you add the shipping cost, this one was only was only a few dollars more. I like this one better. Thanks for the tip.

I have one of these for both of my cars and they are great.

      Weird drivability problem

      By CNH-320 · Posted

      Following up on my topic, I put an O2 sensor in it which seems to have got rid of all the b2s1 codes (I ended up having multiple codes). Next I’ll try to figure out the P0011 but I might focus on exhaust manifolds first, they’re getting pretty rusty. I’m hoping this thread will help someone in the future.

      My expectations are a bit higher.    No faded paint or dry rotted plastic/rubber. I use a dressing and a ceramic sealant. No hazy headlights.  No door dings. Small dent in the front bumper. All rock chips repaired. No brush scratches. No windshield chips. No fender benders. Limit damage due to a proactive plan the included ceramics and PPF and prompt attention to any exterior issue. NO RUST. Stays out of the salt and had the rear wheel wells Line-X coated as well as the bed which has a bed rubber and has been under cover since before I bought it. Washed and detailed regularly. Rex chewed up the tow button, got whacked and the button replaced the same week. He's leaned his lesson. If I can train a dog the kids are easier.    All suspension is original save the King Shocks I installed very early on. 50 years ago dad told me a good shock will keep the screws in the dash tight and the front end mint. He was right. Everything within new spec yet, tight and aligned well several times. Coolant system is OEM save the modifications I made early on. Not a single leak anywhere on this machine. (Did repair an intake leak on #4 during the HPFP replacement.) The injectors I replaced didn't need to be. They checked out great. One of those, while I'm in there with the manifold off and the fuel rail apart things.  Not a stain or abrasion one to the upholstery. Have kept is covered since new. Never had a carpet, it's a work truck but the carpet squared I laid on the floor have keep the factory rubber liner MINT. Ceramic wind tint helps preserve the interior.    Original BRAKES with 60%+ left of the pads and rotors mic excellent. We just did a full preventative brake service. Disassembly, clean inspect including measurements, lube, Dot 4 power flush including ABS system.    OEM battery. OEM vacuum pump. In fact the only things not OEM are a pinion seal the high side pump and injectors and a small plastic shield around the starter. All hoses/belts etc.. are still in service and doing well. Original tires lasted 125K and had I known some additional details would have made it to 150K with legal tread. (Date out is six years, not 5 and Continental says they are good for 10 so I pulled the trigger to early)   I never let my children or grandchildren run the show. Feet on the floor and hands in your lap. Dog gets a pass.    A truck is a machine the gives you back whatever your willing to put into it. Same as a computer or a butter knife. I use a shovel but I scrap it, hose it off and oil it when I'm done with it. My original spade I've had 60 years.      Set the bar higher...you spend less money. No, before you ask, I have spent a fraction of the cost of a new truck in my entire maintenance program including disposables, filters/fluids etc.

      5.48 regular still here at Kroger. Stations here aren't getting the memo but the owners are probably tired of programming prices up/down with every headline and futures gyration.   WTI Crude is over 80 again but seems mostly unfazed after the exchange of fire in the Middle East over the weekend and ceasefires falling apart. 🤦‍♂️ Enough already...

      Looking at ordering a '26 WT because I want a std cab, std bed

      By newdude · Posted

      Keep an eye on it with them.  Did they give you an order #?  Did they actually have allocation for one?   I double checked the dates for 2026 regular cab 1500s for Chevy and GMC, the last dealer order submission date was April 30th.
