Hauled some straw, I hate this stuff. The tailgate gap seal worked well [emoji16]

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

Welcome, and congratulations on your new truck.

 

Where was your cat on the truck in the next picture? Warm hood is such a great place for a "cat nap"!

Dang, objects in passenger mirror are a lot closer than they should be!!!

 

Don't even think that is the angle of the camera.

Made up a simple frame to hold sandbags over the axle when its icy and snowy. I know the front board is off-center.... it's so I can angle the thing in and out.

Finally installed my GMRS radio and antenna on the new truck. Did it the most non-destructive way I could.. I know I could have routed the cable through the bed itself by popping out one of the plastic covers, but I opted for just routing over the back and under the toolbox. Using the toolbox itself as an anchor point for the mounting bracket.

 

Used zip ties along the bottom to make sure the cable didn't move around. The cable itself is 6M.. which was perfect for the route I took it. Also, excuse the dust, it's a losing battle here in Kansas.large.IMG_4148.jpg.43c0a090f904a3fa5cd9e4bd2e4a328f.jpglarge.IMG_4149.jpg.651450a5a80b2ce361f67a6986226a42.jpglarge.IMG_4150.jpg.c629d3322794ee8d92c92b24e13e6ab8.jpglarge.IMG_4151.jpg.bb5eb55cdcc2ba6c4cb754a3d22f601b.jpglarge.IMG_4154.jpg.1cd234a735a169f93a455352f882e615.jpglarge.IMG_4155.jpg.16d8f6e288a4822c25877d6bccf90a1e.jpglarge.IMG_4153.jpg.5bb9d5377d07702cdfdf99c601bac9f5.jpglarge.IMG_4152.jpg.f0da5bbc88f4bb73e304cec3e8bfc3f8.jpg

Not today, per se, but this weekend:

 

 -Added class 3 Curt hitch, Hopkins drop-in trailer plug, and Tekonsha P3 brake controller w/GM harness. (All were plug and play)
-Added factory GM fog lights. Just need to finish wiring and get the BCM programmed. 
-Swapped the crappy Bridgestone Alenza A/S 02’s for Cooper Discoverer ATP’s (So much better)

-Added CAMPARK 4K dash cam with hardwire kit. 
 

 

Ordered Motofab 2” front and 3” rear leveling kit. Should be here next week.

Tried my hand at vinyl wrap. Did both front doors and the trim at the console on both sides. Didn’t turn out as bad as I thought it could.

I got everything I needed for the "tow package" from Amazon and all told, it costs $376.71. Everything was plug and play and took about an hour to install (including the hitch). Here's what you need:

 

 

 

HITCH: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Q4R4NM2/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_4?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

BRAKE CONTROLLER (Can get a less expensive model, but this is the best rated): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000P17NXQ/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_2?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

WIRING PLUG: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001NYYREC/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_5?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

BRAKE CONTROLLER HARNESS: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07LDBYB1G/ref=ox_sc_saved_title_3?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

 

 

I also got the Tyger tri-fold soft Tonneau and absolutely love it. Was only $220

Mods I have made since I purchased my truck are:

1. 6" steps (OEM)

2. All-weather Chevy floor-mats (front and back) 

3. Line-X spray-in bedliner

4. Replaced antenna with a Metra 7" shorty antenna (purchased at Advance Auto Parts)

5. Removed the dealership badge from the tailgate

 

I really like all of the updates/mods.  I don't have a favorite mod at this point.  For all considering replacing the long antenna, the Metra antenna I purchased at Advance Auto Parts receives all of the channels so far with no noticeable difference.  I haven't travelled far out of my area yet, so my opinion may change.  I had to return the first antenna I purchased because the base was too large to screw onto the receiving antenna screw (so be careful with the size of the base on these).

 

Mods to do:

1. Towing package

2. Tonneau cover (leaning toward the rollup Gator cover mainly because of the price)

3. Possibly the CHEVROLET inserts/stickers on the tailgate.

 

I washed it yesterday for the first time, and cleaned out the interior.  Will get it waxed before winter gets here.

Took her out around the pond to check some of my deer cameras, and couldn’t help but snap a pic. Beautiful day!33080bde83a81df3cbc6a2cdf98352d8.jpg

I got my truck back from the dealer with Katzskin leather & GM all-weather mats installed, plus I had 35% ceramic tint installed all around except for the 6" visor which is limo.

    • I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need.webcrimsNY
    • I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.
    • Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.  
    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
