Yea they are definitely optional, but for 4k $, it seems like they would kinda throw that in. Haha!

But seriously. Incredible unit (thats what she said!)

Hey, I'm with you! You would think all the optional items would be standard at that price. Funny thing it's only for Silverado color schemes. GMC variation not yet available. I am sure when it finally gets released into the market it will be a chunk less than MSRP.

 

I am for sure my buddy Kyle will have one soon, so I will get the lowdown on this unit.

Thanks db, check out my build thread.....I personally would get one of these, but don't see a real need for replacing the head unit right now.....price drops to $2k and I will jump on it......of course after a supercharger....lol

 

....oh and I stand corrected....I watch the promo video and there is a gmc color option.....hmmmm

Game changer.... Wow. I was going to spend $2K to upgrade to apple CarPlay and add a front camera. The optional switch relay really has me sold. How much can I get for my 2015 unit with nav?

 

Awesome:

 

Have you upgraded your Chevrolet Silverado with accessories like a winch, lights, air suspension and a motorized tonneau cover? No need to add switches that clutter your dash. Now you can conveniently control these accessories directly from the X110-SLV’s touchscreen! The KAC-001 Truck Accessory Controller (sold separately) turns the X110-SLV into a hub to connect and control these accessories. Eight individual outputs are available to control eight relay-connected accessories, and the accessories can be configured as Pulsed, Latched or Momentary Outputs. Graphical icons can be assigned to each accessory for quick identification on the screen.

If anyone is interested, the install manuals are now available on Alpines site under the support section.

What I find odd is that the marketing page shows that this is compatible with Bose but the install doc says it isn't.

Seems the introductory street price is $3500 at multiple web sites. I love this in dash solution, price is just crazy, nearly 10% of the truck. That is hard to swallow.

I actually looked into this model a bit further, and I can get it for waaaayyyyy less than that, but its still a chunk.

 

I am telling myself I will wait until next xmas! And if I feel I still want one I will call in my favor......

I love that thing but for 4k not so much. Looks like it replaces more then just the head unit. Awesome piece

You'd have to throw in Jessica Alba to get any money for it.

Who is your source? How much can you get it for? I'm seriously considering, and would do sub amp and component speaker upgrades at the same time.

Sorry it's not an open source. Dealer cost never is, and it's being controlled with limited distribution. I can just say markup is pretty high on these higher end alpine units, and if given the opportunity to purchase you might want to jump on it. I see the market has set the price at $3500, should be a bit lower by Xmas next year.

    • I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.     
    • Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.  
    • The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.  
    • Yes your absolutely right, I been looking at the 4 inch BDS one and it acutely states you can use the stock 20’s just not the 17’s or 18’s, I also didn’t realize that with my 275/60r20 stock wheels I’m already running 33 inch diameter wheel setup lol so I can just run my stock wheels and tires atleast to start.
    • I would expect that to be lift-kit dependent.  If the kit has interference issues w stock wheels, then the kit/manufacturer should indicate that somewhere.
