The lifts don't kill mpg the tires will you have to PAY TO PLAY expect 15mpg maybe plus or minus 1 or 2 depending. Big tires kill mpg so if your worried about it leave it stock

  On the other hand, GM is offering 0% for 5 years on various models including the 2026 Silverados. That's significant savings with current interest rates and average borrowing terms. While I don't doubt the truthfulness of the article, it's worth pointing out that fullsize trucks aren't exactly flying off the shelf right now with the highest and longest-sustained gas prices, lowest consumer confidence, and one of the periods of highest economic uncertainty. A certain level of incentive is still required to support sales at current pricing, even if GM's incentives are less than industry average. The article points out inventory is down 3% YOY and supports its 50-60 day target. The visual impact of this, or, maybe it's another factor entirely, is stunning. Local dealerships simply don't have rows and rows of Silverados in every color and configuration imaginable anymore. A local dealer I recall having "normal" inventory of about 50 Silverado 1500's on its lot now regularly only carries about 10-20. The inventory reduction seems more than just a few percentage drop, but maybe that's recurring over several years.

  That’s what I thought. I guessed there would be switches/buttons and lights for the traction control. I don’t have that.

  Similar thing happened to me. Manual transmission mode didn't help. Transmission temp 190-203. Next day after transmission cooled, everything was fine. My check engine light stayed on. Had the code checked. It was a valve body failure which was repaired under warranty (5 yr/60,000 mi for gas).
