Got the cheap Tiger T1 tonneau cover and I’m impressed! Only took 15 min to install and is surprisingly sturdy.

I have the same one, surprisingly good quality for the price and does the job, keeps everything dry and held up great last winter.

Something interesting is going on with the forum. I don't see any of my posts from yesterday. If, somehow, this is a repost, please ignore it.

For Christmas I got the GM tailgate gap filler. I didn't take pics. It is a very easy install. You only need a T-20 torx bit driver/socket/etc, microfiber rag, and 15-20 minutes.

I also got black plug nuts and wheel locks. These look much better than the chrome lugs nuts do on the black 18" Trail Boss wheels. The black plugs nuts are also a bit longer so they're the same length as the wheel locks.

I also got black Z71 badges for the front fenders. I don't have pics of them yet due to being out of Goo Gone. I ordered a bottle from Amazon, and will have this done in the next few days.

What keypad did you have installed? Is it a GM product?

I have the gm accessory keypad. Installed by the dealer so no idea on the details. Here's the receipt for item code reference.

Just had my shell installed. I created a whole new thread for canopy pictures and questions since I couldn't find one when I was shopping.

This is a Leer 100XR. See my thread for full details.

Installed my Lasfit LED high beam bulbs. Already had the low beams so this completed the set. Very bright and an easy install.

Installed the gm full coverage floor mat in the back of my crew cab. I have the under seat storage which had to remove so the mat fit underneath. The mat then had to be trimmed along the back for the storage to fit back in. It was all pretty straight forward and they look great. It's already helped clean the mess from little kids in the back.

My only issue is a gap between the storage and the mat where crud can gather. I'll find something later to make a gasket with.

Since I had a 10mm deep socket on an extension handy from removing three jack, I used that and a hammer to get the joints to seat really well. I don't think you can do the joints adequately by hand.

There's also a carpet screw on the drivers side of the storage unit that I had to drill a hole in the mat for, sorry no pic.

Do yourself a favor and buy this under seat storage from DU-HA. It is not only larger but eliminates that gap. It's worth the cost.

+1 on the Duha.  Best investment yet.  I had to trim mine a bit in the same spots because of the mats.   I can fit so much stuff in this thing it's insane.  As you can see all my first responder and safety gear on my side, on the other are cables, tow straps, rope, tie downs, tools......

    • Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra. 
    • I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.

    • What’s missing in all this is patience and investment in the future. Buy a 170K starter home. Ten years later sell it invest in a more expensive home. Eventually you’ll have a 600K home and pay starter home payments. Buy a starter car. Maintain it well. Save the payments after it’s payed for then buy an expensive car if you desire. Buy a tumbler make your own coffee, pack your lunch. Cook your own dinner. Most importantly take care of your car.
    • People mislead themselves. Statistics are highly useful indicators.   Here's the tie-in to this thread. If an oil sample tests shows a wear indicator of 7 using cheaper ACDelco oil, and a wear indicator of 2 (lower = less wear) using a particular brand of Mobil oil, and wear has a linear relationship with engine lifespan, anyone could assume that Mobil is reducing wear by more than 50% (let's just say a 200% reduction for you red state people trying hard to do math) which leads to increasing engine life by 2x. Perhaps, in a vacuum, by itself, when dreamed by AI.   Yeah?! That's what the statistic is saying, isn't it?   No, it isn't. It didn't come out and say engine life is doubled. That's a very bad assumption, and a case of severe myopia by assuming something potentially untrue about the only data point in focus.   Average cost of a new car is 50k. You bet it is.   The median cost of a new car is more like 35k. Expensive cars are skewing the perception that "average" now means a $50k price of entry for a very average automobile. And that's not true. People who don't understand statistics twist the living heck out of them to mean all sorts of things they don't actually mean.   "Average" new car payment is $1000/month. Yep, it is. And in that number are all the $35k new car buyers who bring significant equity, and the $25k new car buyers who finance the car for a month just to get a rebate, and then pay it off. Know what isn't in that number? All the payments made by people who don't finance a car.   Picking one's own data point (don't have a car payment, never paid $50k for a new vehicle, my house cost $170k, I afforded a middle class lifestyle on $4.50/hr) is just a data point. Just like earning $25/hr in an area where the median home price is almost $1 Million is a data point. In fact, it's a lot of data points given that 80% of the US population lives in/around major cities. They're not idiots; the vast majority of them do it to make a living because that's where the big money is.   The highs have become higher, lows have become lower, and how your personal mileage varies is not truth for an entire country. At the same time you can't NOT acknowledge the data. While it doesn't paint YOUR personal picture, it certainly tints the reality that you also live in, as does your single data point.
