Your 5.3L was a silver Sierra crew cab wasn't it? Trailer looks familiar from a different thread...

Correct. Good eye. I had air bags on the back to help with squat and Bilstein 4600's that improved the ride dramatically. Loved the truck as a daily, but I always felt bad towing that 36' brick around with it. Just felt like it was constantly shifting gears and revving to the stratosphere to keep momentum.

We feel same way with ours. Truck has plenty of power and pulls great, but when lease is up probably get a 2500 - the suspension just seems too soft and it does like to downshift a lot.

 

Love the new ride - but I don't have energy to keep black looking that good!

You're not kidding. The damn camp-grounds are awful for sap. Spent 2 hours on Sunday getting it all off my poor paint.

Just purchased my first 2500! I've owned 3 brand new 1500 trucks since 2011 and I decided I wanted a bigger truck this go around. For higher level trims the 1500 price is about the same as a 2500 anyway so why not! It was the last 2016 Denali I could find and they wouldn't let me order one (a 2016 anyway) and still get the discounts. I watched it for about a month and then out of nowhere they knocked another 6k off the price. Originally wanted white but I couldn't pass up this deal. 49k new! Would love to add a small lift kit and wheeels/tires but as of right now I'm to scared to touch it! Lol this thing rides like a dream!

Now to purchase some toys to haul with this bad boy!

Thought mine was looking halfway clean so thought I'd post a couple with my new wheels. Wasn't digging the all black wheels look that came with the midnight package so I swapped them out with these.

Tell me about it! I have a black car and love the looks of black trucks but I just don't know if I want the upkeep....

Just picked her up last week...17' Denali L5P! Did a little color matching and installed a 30" light bar behind the grille. Nitto Ridge Grapplers coming for summer!

Looks great, I need to stay away from this thread because I'm very close to upgrading mine! Just don't feeling like tuning and deleting again!

I just bought my first black vehicle and I will never do it again. After 10k miles it already dosent look great and needs and full paint correction and it's never been through a car wash and only washed by hand by me.

On the bright side with trucks, you can't see the roof so you don't need to clean it. [emoji1]

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
