As a usual new body style goes, the 2019 GMC is growing on me. 

This must be one of the GM test vehicles?

Thanks for sharing!

Looks like a Ram and an F150 had a love child. Will take a while to get used to this. When GM dropped the renderings of the 2014 Double Cab All Terrain I was immediately head over heels for it and knew I needed one. This thing just makes me go, really? I hope the design team is job hunting right now that's all I can say.

Everyone has their own opinion of the new look.  For me the 2019 Sierra borrowed cues from the GMC Terrain especially in the headlight area.

From the side it looks like a Titan/Tundra. The front fender emblem is Titan all the way. Better looking but still borrowed from Nissan.

The 2019 GMC Tail light is reminiscent of the 2005-2012 Colorado and 2002-2006 Avalanche.

2019 Silverado has its own unique front end which mimics the GMT800 cat eye headlight look or even going back the GMT400 1988-1998 front end.

2019 Silverado tailgate stamp idea is probably borrowed from Tundra/Tacoma.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^  the above are all my opinions of the 2019 styling :cool:

Just saw this morning that the local dealership in Jax has a 19 Sierra Denali enroute. Thought they weren't supposed to be available until January..?!

Enroute could be January  LOL

When looking at the build site and clicking locate inventory, many dealers around here show 2019's available. I believe this is just dealer pre-inventory.

The available window stickers do not even pop up.

Actually Chevy and GMC trucks have had "Chevrolet" and "GMC" stamped into the tailgate for decades. You're not the first person to think the Tundra/Tacoma originated the idea though.

I ordered a 2019 GMC Denali on June 8.  It is scheduled to be built the week of August 27.  The dealership called me last week to tell me they received 2 already.  I stopped in to take a look.  OH MY GOODNESS!!  They are super.  So many new features.  I can't hardly wait until mine comes in.  I seriously thought about purchasing that one right there and then.  They are NICE!

i don't like the round wheel well i just wish there stayed with the square wells. However the split tail gate could come in handy

      Vehicle Payments

      By ChristopherDobson · Posted

      Monthly payment is only part of the equation. With today's prices and interest rates, I'd look at the total monthly cost: payment, insurance, registration, fuel, maintenance, and expected repairs. A vehicle that fits comfortably into your budget is usually the better choice than stretching for a higher trim. I've also kept my vehicles longer over the past few years. New cars have gotten expensive enough that driving one for 10+ years, while staying on top of maintenance, often ends up being the most cost-effective approach.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      10 Ford and Chevy engines proven to reach 300,000 miles   You may note a common 3K OCI on this list of gas motors. I skipped over the diesels. Dh'O.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.

      cam upgrade in CA

      By davester · Posted

      apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.

      Possible lifter tick after DOD delete

      By davester · Posted

      yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
