Over the past couple days, I got the painted mirror caps installed(thanks Chevrolet Rewards), added the KEY01E short antenna, as well as Sylvania Zevo LED backup and license plate lights. No errors or issues with the backup camera so far(only been 12 hours). Subtle upgrades that I think make a world of different in the appearance of the truck. Excuse the dirty truck in the pics...supposed to storm here this evening so I didn't clean it up first. More to come!

Do you have a part number for those center caps? they look so glossy...shop chevy parts has them but the image shows them in a matte black. I want the GMC red like you originally had to put on my 18" AT4 wheels.

Received my Cognito Motorsports UCAs for my AT4. Currently running a RC 2” lift so I bought these to avoid problems. I’ll try to get them on this weekend.

Let us know how it goes. I have a 1.5" motofab leveling kit...but would like to upgrade my UCA as I have seen the stockers tend to give in.

Just got done painting the exhaust tips gloss black with some high heat spray paint and primer and plasti-dipped the badging on the tailgate. Pretty happy with the way it turned out for being only $15 worth of materials. Thanks to the folks on here for making it easy to remove and reinstall the exhaust tips with the thorough instuctions. I'm not sure I would have figured that whole process out on my own!245fc8eb0bf97ac9412ea9c1a26f88bc.jpg

I finally tinted my truck. My buddy who owns a window tint and remote car starter business was out with shoulder surgery. Longest 2 months of my life without tint. I tinted the entire truck with 30% window tint. Went over the back for the kids to make it a bit darker than factory, and also put on a 5% strip on over front windshield. Nice and cool in the truck now! 

 

Iowa has terrible tint laws, so we can't go real dark on front windows. I used to go 5% all the way around when I didn't live here.

 When I got my tent done they gave me a optometrist that will write a script saying you need tint due to light sensitivity and migraines .

After a couple of months of hard research on truck bed covers and going back and forth between several types, models, materials etc.. I decided to purchase the Extang 2.0 signature soft trifold cover.
I have to tell you that I'm very impressed with the equality of this cover, fitment, and just overall looks. I'm so glad that I went with the signature series and not the standard vinyl.
I never carry any valuables in my truck, when we go out camping or take a quick little weekend trip to the beach, this cover will serve its purpose.

Tried that here in Iowa with my eye doctor. He told me it doesn't work. Wish it did, but the law is the law. They can void it whether he signs it or not.

Wait, do you want the chrome GMC logo or the Red ones I took off? 

 

The chrome part number is 84388431, but I got these on ebay for much cheaper. If you are looking for the gloss black with red logo, PM me and I'll sell you these pretty cheap.

    • My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.
    • Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken. 
    • Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.
    • I have 2 choices. 
    • Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
