What side steps are those?

They are the GM

factory ones. Here is a pic of mine that came with my truck. They will run you about $900 installed from the dealer.

Yeah, those are the GM off-road steps... I have them on my 2020 AT4 as well, came with my truck

Got my wheels test fit today, still waiting on the lift so my truck is stuck in grandpa

mode until that arrives. Also had Sirius Xm Commander Installed, turned out ok... the shop installed the antenna on the dash and drilled a hole without asking me. I’m not exactly keen on it, the reception sucks with it in the cab and now there’s a freaking hole in the dash. Bad luck streak continues lol.

 

after the lift getting a spray on bed liner, installing my tonneau cover, and getting the bumpers wrapped matte black. Bunch of other stuff in the works...

Here are all the "mods" I have done so far (some may not be considered "mods"):

 

1. replaced antenna with a short antenna purchased from AutoZone (no reduced reception noticed)

2. Line-X spray-in bedliner

3. rear seat armrest/drink holder installed (TSI 30011 Bench Seat Clutter Catcher - purchased off Amazon) 

4. Gator rollup soft tonneau cover 

5. towing receiver package installed

6. got and using the TopGo cellphone holder (love it and holds phone secure at the perfect height)

7. GM Factory floorliners for front and back (courtesy of my GM Rewards points - love them)

 

Looking at potentially adding:

 

1. BDTrims rear "Chevrolet" inserts, and

2. Full rear window decal of US Flag to show my support and patriotism for this great country

 

Last week I had the first oil change/tire rotation/service done.  Also had 3 recalls done.  Then yesterday I got another recall notice in the mail about the brake system.  Frustrating, but glad this is on GM and not me.

 

I'm loving my truck.  I'd love to be able to clean it up, but it won't stop raining long enough down here in the South to give me time to do it.

Where did you find this emblem and how difficult was it to install? Looks good!

Ordered it through my dealer. Install is easy, probably 15 minutes,  if you don’t mind wrecking the old emblems.

I dropped mine off to begin the process of getting Xpel and ceramic coating applied.  Today they cut and buffed and tomorrow it should get the PPF and coating.  I should have it back on Wednesday.

I had mine ceramic coated at birth, everyone says the key is letting it cure as long as you can.  He did it on a Friday night and I picked it up on the Monday. When I brought it home I left it in the garage for couple days too.. now it’s crazy how I can basically rinse it and it’s looks freshly waxed.  Also found using the same brand cleaner and makes a difference.   The pic doesn’t show it but the thing looks like a mirror.

    • 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.
