I drove a small truck(s) through my youth up until a year after I was married (late 20's) Still have a place in my heart for such types. I got to sit in a Colorado a my dealership last week as I was picking up a new battery for my wife's Equinox. Wow is this thing "big." Seriously, to me this truck is as big as the old full sized trucks from 25+ years ago. Plus more power if you really remember the old 350ci V8's from years past too (160hp and 200ft/lb if I recall correctly). Not to mention all the features. My old small trucks were so basic, hand crank windows and all... If they had anything special, I installed it aftermarket including air conditioning in the one I drove the longest. Personally, I don't think the price is really that bad either. I'd never pay sticker anyway, and would expect to see $5K or more discounts on these eventually. But, I regress, I'm a big truck driver these days. I don't live in an over crowded metro any more, so my full size addiction is far from out of place in my life. If I didn't already have a vehicle for my kid already though, I'd be pushing for this as a starter for sure! The $22K version would be perfect for that task. It is a beautiful truck! Only negative I could try to speak would be the rise in trim on the back door window, like a lot of others say too. Just looks stupid. But everything else is perfect IMHO.

My first truck was an S-10, these little mid size trucks look great, but way too expensive $$$$$$.

 

 

 

I feel what you're saying, thing is.. here in miami its a PITA to park, people drive like crap and honestly theres no use for me to have that big of a truck like a silverado or sierra. And yes they are a bit high on the price, but i believe i got a pretty good deal, 33,900$ + tax fees and title, but i got a 1000 credit for being a capital one member plus a $500 incentive for family member having a VW lease so when you look at it its not too crazy, plus i got the SLT version, loaded.. thats nice price difference from the full size trucks going for 45 and up loaded with a few goodies (without winter package and a bunch of of other stuff i don't need).. I've had it since end of November, and after about 2k miles i really enjoy driving this truck... its very comfortable for me that im 6'3" so at least for me it's perfect in my honest opinion.

 

But of course big trucks are so bad ass lol Nice Silverado.

2015 GMC Canyon with All Terrain package. Picked it up in Anchorage, AK yesterday and drove through a ice/snow storm to get it to Fairbanks, AK. Doesn't look to bad considering what it was subjected to yesterday.

    • This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.  
    • 2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.  
    • Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉
    • Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
