Anyone else seen the current TV ad for Chevy trucks. The front of one Silverado is described as "A monster coming to eat you" . Does it get any dumber than that?

We should all start a fundraiser to buy all of the rights to "Like a Rock" and give them permanently to GM under the stipulation that that has to be featured as the primary audio in every Silverado commercial. Thinking about it, it can't be THAT expensive.

Lol I thought I was the only one who thought that was dumb....all the commercials in the last year or two with the redish hair guy have been dumb .....I wasn't a big fan of the cage and a grizzly bear commercial either (except the bear) or the dumping of bricks ....

 

I'm with you guys on the "like a rock" being classic

There is a Chevy vehicle ad parody on the Tube that is pretty funny.

Yes,real people,my son was in one of the commercials last year.

 

 

And he wasn't given lines to read? Chevy is using honest reactions? Do "real people" say things like "Looks like a monster coming to eat you"?

GM needs to improve the reliability of the trucks first before they use the Like a Rock campaign again.

GM needs to improve the reliability of the trucks first before they use the Like a Rock campaign again. Back in the 90s when that was in use they had the best 1/2 ton trucks around hands down. Right now? I don't think so.

      Help purchasing a touch screen digitizer

      By mark249 · Posted

      Brought my 2015 Colorado into the dealership to check my touch screen issues, had that ghost touch thing happening. They said I needed a new touch screen and they could either order me one for $500. The lady at the service deck was nice enough to tell me I could order a touch screen online for less, she did stipulate that the touch screen had to be factory OEM, you can't pair an aftermarket screen to my radio seeing it was 2015, it had to be a GM factory OEM only. I found a few on Amazon and Ebay by the numbers on the back of the old screen, DJ080PA-01A GM# 22740886, Some said "OEM" in the description and others just said "Replacement". Would a replacement be the same as a OEM as long as it had the same numbers on the back of the screen? In some of the descriptions they also show different brand names but same numbers, is that an issue?

      I have both but typically use the 4 legged walker (wheels on front, ski's on back).   The four wheeler is starting to be used on "longer" outdoor walks.  The 4 legged walker is particularly helpful in practicing good walking posture.  Both of my knees are at different stages of recovery and I'm trying to not develop poor habits.  I can actually manage with a cane but it's very difficult not to favor one leg over the other.  My PT recommends I continue with my 4 legged walker for a while.  Yesterday was four weeks since my last knee replacement and I'm excited about my progress to date.  It has been a hell of a rough journey so far but it is exciting to witness  systematic and continuous improvement.  I went for years watching the decline of my "mobility".  It seems that everyday now I am alerting my wife to something I can do now that I couldn't a day or two ago!  I encourage anyone facing the prospect of knee replacement to share any concerns with others who have had the surgery.  It isn't an instant fix but rather is a considerable amount of short term pain for long term gain.  Recovery time and pain levels vary for individuals post surgery but the end results are typically very positive and I've never encountered anyone regretting having had the surgery.

      The lifter issue can be dealt with by shorter oil changes and quality oil IMO.

      Wiring Help, Please

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      I'm putting in an A-pillar pod/gauges, and I'm asking if anybody can identify a (preferably) fuse for a switched power and illumination circuit on the driver's side interior fuse panel. Offhand, everything I checked with a test light was constant-hot, and I'd much rather uses a piggyback fuse. I can certainly find a wire, but I'd rather not half-tap.   Thanks in advance for any help.
