I’ve been wanting this feature for years, and after carefully examining tons of pictures from the auto show I found the controls for it clear as day.

 

in many pictures I saw what I thought was the reflection of the HUD opening, but didn’t want to rely on that alone.  

 

On on another note,  the more I’m seeing about the truck the more overall I’m very impressed.

I really, really, miss the HUD I had in three of my Pontiacs.  Neat to see this is coming to the trucks, might put a little dent in the whole 12" RAM display talk.  Of course, the 12" is only their top model, and I would assume the HUD is only on the top GM models, so might never see it, but still...

I had it in a Buick back in 2004.  Amazed this technology hasn't really caught on.  I really liked it and it was super convenient.

I dont give a rats ass about HUD personally.   I hope the new generation has adaptive cruise control.

Man I didn’t care about it either before driving my in laws Escalade on many trips out of town.  You really get used to it and miss it when it’s gone. 

 

It it sounds so stupid trying to describe why you like it, because even while describing why you like it you are thinking you sound stupid lol.  But I’m telling you,  it’s great.  

 

If you don’t care for it, best thing to do is not drive a vehicle that has it so you’ll not know what you are missing.

THey are HUD brightness, height adjustment on window,  and information select. You can choose mph +speed limit, mph+ tach or  turning directions from your nav system. Probably other stuff. I have it on my '16 Corvette and love it.  OOps! I didn't see previous post explaining things. Sorry.

You are just now seeing this? It was been known since the reveal...

 

While a nice feature for navigation instructions it is pretty useless unless you are performance driving which won't be happening in a truck, but it is something new to the truck world to grab all those buyers who just want more and check every box and create a headline of something this truck has that others don't so why the heck not? It is another little thing that drives up the overall costs of these trucks though but we are beyond that point.

I had 3 Corvettes that had it and I never used it. I tried but I guess I'm so used to analog gages that I saw no advantage to HUD. Looks cool though.

All I know man is my in laws have it on their Escalade we use to travel in.  I love it personally.  It’s something that truly isn’t a necessity, but I did grow used to neve taking my eyes off the road I guess you could say but also know my speed.  It’s a minor detail, but one I have truly wanted for the past few years.  

 

And if if this was known since the reveal(I’m assuming your referring to the event lowering the truck from the helicopter) I don’t know where. I google the hell out of it and search this site for anything: 2019 Silverado HUD heads up display, and nothing pertaining to the actual Silverado any year range would show.

I too feel that this feature should be a top feature in just about every car/truck.  HUD is very much the way to go IMHO.  People will keep their eyes on the road better, if not at least a little bit.

 

And, you guys are right on the peddle adjustment, I don't see it either in any of the pics.  It might be in the radio display though.  What I'm trying to figure out is this button...

I had HUD on my '99 Grand Prix GTP and missed it dearly on my 2008 G8 GT and my 2011 CTS-V wagon. Had it on my 2016 Chevy SS and it was very nice to have. You don't know how much you like it until you don't have it. Completely negates the need to look down at tour gauges. I was surprised that my '18 Sierra didn't have it.

 

And that button to me looks like it controls the side steps.

That button turns off the power running boards.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By newdude · Posted

      This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By newdude · Posted

      2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.

      Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By newdude · Posted

      Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
