Well after about 4 or 5 months of going back and forth about even buying a new truck, I pulled the trigger on a Summit White 2017 All Terrain X. Man I love this truck so far. Quite the upgrade from my 08 Silverado LT as far as trim level is concerned. I really didn't like the look of the sport bar so i had the dealership remove and replace the wiring for the cab third brake light. I also requested keeping the bar so i can try and sell it sometime.

 

Some Mods I want to do right away are :

 

2 inch level

Ride Rite Air bags for pulling my camper

Bakflip MX4 Tonneau cover

Gatorback Mud Flaps

I have already Blacked out all the emblems which looks great!

 

Already have sold my 08 to a buddy who's been eyeing it up for awhile and bugging me to sell to him haha. Going to miss that truck as it never let me down.

 

Always enjoy this forum and glad its here to help out on all sorts of topics with these trucks!

 

Heres a couple pics of the old and new one.

To answer some of your questions, no the truck did not come with the exhaust that u lucky Americans get I guess with this all terrain x. I read another guy I think who had a x in Canada and same thing. Not sure why but whatever I guess.

Welcome!

Did your sport bar come with the offroad lights? I'll take them :)

No sorry it did not. Maybe I would have kept if it did haha

I really considered black too. My wife has a 12' Acadia which is black. Man we can't keep that thing clean living on a farm and these dirty roads in Canada especially in winter lol. I chose white as I've had it before and easier to keep clean.

Welcome!

 

I got the Gatorback mud flaps on my Silverado a little while back. I love them!

 

Are these the custom fit ones?

      2018 Silverado Console USB Port Not Working

      By Tbhats2130 · Posted

      My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.

      The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.

      I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
