Actually used my bed for what it was meant for.

Here is my Proclip iPhone mount. They are a little expensive. I have had a couple but so far they have held up really good.

Until we get wireless CarPlay, I will continue using this iPhone holder and mount from ProClip.

It seems to be pretty sturdy. No problems with my knee or leg hitting it. It stays put and holds the phone securely.

Just get in and slide the phone down and it "clicks" into the cable at the bottom.

Where I have it placed currently, very minimal blockage of the buttons behind it. I don't use the trailer brake or the lane keep assist. It does very slightly block the first seat warmer button on the left. Of course this is only when the phone is mounted.

I have not done any work yet to hide the wires. I have been lazy.

Hope this helps someone else looking for a phone mount.

Nah, my neighbor drives it occasionally for work. It comes and goes as he needs it [emoji2373]

Order and installed the EGR dark smoke window deflectors. Used my GM points rewards so total cost was $9.23 which isn’t bad! These kinda threw me off for a minute, I was expecting the front ones to have double sided tape on them but they don’t. Only the rear deflectors have tape on them. Simple install, took longer to clean the seals! Nice and sleek, they are flush with the trim.

My Dealer left the LED lights out and lost the rubber seals covering the opening where the lights are installed.  It took 3 months to obtain a replacement seal.  How much were the lights?  Do they turn on when you open the tailgate step?

Cheapest price is $112. They turn on when you turn on the bed lights via the button in the cab.

Went to the dealer today and found out they’re having a wheel sale of 4 for $1,000. They said it’s because they ordered too many. Only one I think looks okay is the all black one.

Hi all, I traded my 15 Silverado for a 20 RST 2wd.

 

So far I have just added the toolbox off my 15 & the OCD console organizer. I'm  dropping the truck off at the dealer today for them to add leather seats & get my GM all-weather mats.20191029_164045.thumb.jpg.28f8c57e757180ebf6ad799c852a9532.jpg

Well, found out the CAI tune from gm when you purchase the gm performance CAI, allows you to go well past 100mph..... was still pulling pretty good when I let off. 5.3L

    • Congratulations Isttype, on your gmc. Really like my 2024 2500hd sle doublecab now with 85,500 miles.  I checked the oil today at 4800 miles since last oil change and barely reading on the stick.  I don't care if GM says it's Acceptable adding a quart every 2000 miles because that is 100% BS, It is not a 1966 Harley Shovelhead! Sounds like it's setting up a future failure like I had with my 1500 6.2l. Other than oil consumption problems, I really like the 6.6l gas and 10 speed is really nice.  Towed a light 4000 pound trailer last week and averaged 14 mpg.  I was pretty impressive that a 7300 pound gas truck did 14mpg towing, Later-
    • Long Term Cold Cycle Limited Testing   Back to the 1990's and XOM's million mile test. Since then there have been others and there will be more. Schaeffer's, AMSOIL to name two. Of these Schaeffer's is the stand alone which I will explain in a bit later.    http://papers.sae.org/600190/:   http://papers.sae.org/850215/:   Up to 75% of  engine wear occurs on cold starts. These two links (above) provide the technical reasons for engine wear. In a nut shell, and by a large margin, cylinder wear is what takes out most motors and even with a pre-oiling system that part of the engine is dry enough on cold starts and cold warm up to pierce Stribeck.   So when you put a motor, or a car, on a dyno for a million miles stopping only for oil changes, (yes fuel is uninterrupted) or break down maintenance, you are depriving the test of the most important part of it's wear cycle. Yes a million is then a pretty easy walk even for a mineral oil under those conditions.    How about cleanliness during the long test cycles? Same thing. Varnishes that stick rings and insulate parts are laid down by repetitive 'heat cycles'. It's the cool down the precipitates the varnishes. These long runs also hinder acidic attack caused by cold start richness and less than optimal cold start ring sealing. They hinder water formation and enhance breathing of the crankcase; the petri dish of acid formation, the first step in sludge formation, amalgamation and precipitation. These motors are also monitored and controlled for water and oil temperatures to within the "normal operating range".      https://www.swri.org/sites/default/files/sequence-iiih-test.pdf Note the test sequence in some boutique oils literature for testing, API IIIH, is not the standard used for the ILSAC G7 testing. Does that mean it is irrelevant? No, not as used. As used as a 'visual guide' it makes it's point. The G7 weighted piston deposit minimum is lower.      Back to Schaeffer's. That was a cyclical test of an engine in fleet service and not a dyno mule and if you saw the video it was not mirror clean but wear was low.    There are oils like BioSyn and other 'Renewable" source oils that taught cleanliness and have proven themselves in fleet testing. Havoline an other example.    The newest ILSAC G-7 test prioritize cleanliness, LSPI mitigation and fuel economy OVER WEAR. In comparison Porsche C30 Specification Verses ILSAC G-7 Specification below:      Some will balk that this graph isn't apples to apples and I will challenge that in that this graph represent the SPECIFICATION and not the any One Oil Performance.   It is absolutely possible to minimize wear, maximize cleanliness and mitigate LSPI etc., It just isn't cheap and currently I see none that are not walking toward profit over performance.     
    • I don't think you will need a split, separate product, etc., the OBD port should be able to deliver everything you need. Since your device would be plugged into it all the time, it wouldn't miss anything.    Hardware in this case will be the easiest part of your project - ELM 327 devices will already deliver all the data you need. Reporting/software is where your advantage/marketability is.
    • I do too. I’ll never be stuck again 😂
    • It has happened to me a few times. I carry a jumpstart-tire inflator with me.
