My vote would go to the "Real Tree" edition. Spend $3,000 to advertise a clothing manufacturer. How dumb is that?

I find a lot of the special editions to be just tacky. The RedLine and RealTree top the list though.

I’d have to say that the “ZR4 Interceptor” is at the top of my list for being the worst collaboration between Chevy and ALC... Custom this and custom that are only amount to just add-ons with a hefty price tag. Nothing custom at all... I’d much rather do it myself and have my truck reflect my own vision....89e84a6d912b3b48d5e12c1b4f042bbb.jpg8d57ba7e0c23913db1c7bf2727d8878a.jpg57bd24a97173c2185257bacb5f92b771.jpg4207f302efa10a62eb63c15c53a6ffca.jpgb67944db1cc2c8161a8948bce5a76bc6.jpg

Any “special edition” that is mostly graphics, no thanks! I want a package I can use not one that tells everyone I want them to look at me. Give me a police interceptor package, oh yea.

Saw a new Silverado at the local dealer thats a "Patriotic edition"... asked one of the sales guys what it was, and he said its literally nothing but 3 emblems on the outside(one for each front quarter panel and one on the tailgate).

Special Edition trucks appeal to enough people to make them worthwhile to produce.  Sometimes you find a package that more closely reflects your wants and/or needs than found in typical dealer stock.   When I was searching for my truck I narrowed my trim level search to a SLE- Kodiak Edition.  There was a wide range of options at the SLE level but the Kodiak package encompassed most of my priorities.

My last couple of trucks were Edition trucks (Texas edition), I got better deals with those than if I ordered separately. My 2014 was loaded almost to the level of an SLT less leather and Bose radios for 27K.

reminds me of Ford who just came out with a "Guy Harvey" edition which is literally just his emblem on the door and glove box.... sorry but not worth the added expense. Same goes for these realtree or anything. I usually take stuff OFF my truck like emblems and stuff.

      2007 Silverado classic Cooling fan running

      By Mistycool · Posted

      I am having similar issues.. 08, 4.8L granted I did had a fender bender and minor damage up front passenger side but I don’t think it had anything to do with it.. I had the high and low pressure checked and my fan for my radiator keeps coming on.. replaced the pressure switch and don’t want to keep throwing parts at it. I did have some minor problems here and there like on long road trips sometimes the ac would get a little warm and then on the highway as soon as I give it a little gas or get a little heavier on the petal it started running cooler. Never had an issue with the ac besides the here and there.. but I also started having issues when I fuel up now it takes a bit to start ( super embarrassing) it runs fine and once started ( only happens after fueling up) starts fine any other time. Could they be related?

      Spent a small fortune on fuel this weekend.   $6.69 diesel, 18 gallons of that. $6.99 92-octane ethanol free, 10 gallons of that for yard machines $5.59 87-octane for one of the cars, 11 gallons.   $250+ and I didn't even get a tug.   Hormuz ain't Hormuzin again, did not see that coming...LOL

      Appreciate the advice. I've watched multiple videos. Most showing the most complex for those that have a center console, to one that showed maybe 2 pieces of trim being removed, like 6 screws, pulling back the screen and switch assembly, and installing the inline module. And this was a new/newer Silverado. That didn't look too bad. All the others show alot of trim pieces that need to be removed. I've broken those kind of tabs/clips on my C8 Corvette trying to get to the battery, and that was a lot less clips than what I think is involved here after watching multiple videos and looking at my dash today. I have one on the way. Called a reputable stereo place about installing it and got a "minimum" price of $175. Ouch! Looking forward to seeing what the instructions have to say.

      Ac not keeping up

      By Atlas · Posted

      Hard to say what the issue might be. Anything from the ability to cool the AC condenser up front, to blend door issues in the HVAC unit, to refrigerant charge, to compressor issues or issues in the lines.   Report back what the techs find on the 29th.   GM has service publications which list acceptable vent temperatures and AC pressures at given ambient temps and humidity. They probably won't touch the system if it's operating within those ranges.   I'm also surprised to hear your 2024 with the L8T is still using R134a? I was pretty sure the HD's had switched to the new refrigerant around 2020.
