Add the Bakflip MX4. Looks much better than the soft fold for sure.

Got my truck back from the shop with a prototype 3rd brake light. Space for 5 Baja designs S2s. Going to swap it out in a couple weeks with a powder coated production version that will have an antenna mount built in. Will make for a killer chase/dust light. Has 4 red LEDs for brake lights and 2 whites for cargo lights. If you're interested evil manufacturing is the shop that's going to be selling them.

Installed some bullring tie down anchors. Nothing extravagant I know but every little bit makes it more mine lol.

Added Borla S-type exhaust. Sounds pretty decent from what I could hear over the rain lol. Not as loud as I was really hoping though. Of course, after I got it home I had to go under and tighten everything up cause they apparently didnt do a good job. How far should the tips be sticking out from the bumper or should they be level. If they should be level, I guess Ill have to go loosen everything back up to see if I can get them to move.

Got bored so I traded my '21 AT4 3.0 for this '22 LTZ 3.0 today. Ok, so I didn't get bored. I got more than I paid for the base AT4. This LTZ has everything but HUD, sunroof, and mirror camera (which I'm fine without those options).

I also swapped the S&B intake and the PPE turbo resonator delete from my AT4 onto this tonight. The S&B went on a lot easier on this truck for some reason. The hardest part about the swap on the AT4 was removing the OEM intake tube. This one almost fell out. It seems like there is more room around the rear of the engine in the refresh.

The picture of the OEM turbo resonator is how much oil is in the intake after 48 miles.

What effects have you seen from the COI and resonator delete?

More turbo noise, a slight seat of the pants power increase, and about 1 mpg on the AT4 these came off of. I've not driven the LTZ since I put these on tonight.

Recently changed up my stance. Bottom pic is the before. It was lowered 1-1.5” on 22s using Belltech adjustable lowering struts in the front and drop shackles in the rear. Top pic is current with a 6” RC lift w/ Vertex shocks and 35” tires.

I like the look Both ways. Just wondering how is the ride both ways? Riding stock on my 2019 Sierra 5.3 Crewcab is a little stiff and bouncy if you ask me.

I added a 12vDC power outlet in the driver side center console pocket. It still blows my mind that GM removed them from the truck. I will probably put on one the passenger side as well.

Changed out the standard red and chrome emblems for plain black. The body shop that did it for me didnt even bother to charge. Savings-$50 not having chrome ones anymore - priceless lol.

    • There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
