Doug H, 

What kind of bed cover do you have?

It looks very form fitting.

It is the LOMAX hard tri-fold cover.  So far I am very impressed with the fit and finish.

Doug, How long from when your truck got a VIN until it arrived?  I got a VIN on 09/10 but GM keeps telling me it is code 4300 in Ft. Wayne, hasn't been shipped, and no ETA.  Good looking truck by the way!

It was 3 weeks for me!

Unfortunately, Some trucks have warped windshields and are being held at the staging lot for repair.

Just picked up my 2019 Silverado High Country in Havana Brown Metallic. It is interesting how the color changes under different light conditions!  Only have 23 miles on it and still have a lot to set up.  The truck definitely sit higher than the 2016.  The seats are firmer and the HUD is awesome!  Will update more as I get used to truck.

Doug,  Are the interior colors on your truck Dark Slate/Walnut?  I prefer that to the Jet Black. It goes very well with your exterior color on your truck!

Cheers Dennis

The interior is listed as  Jet Black / Umber .

Finally got the truck out on the Highway.  Handles, rides and appears to accelerate better than the 2016.  Love the HUD!  The seats are definitely firmer than the 2016.  Also, I discovered there is No CD player!  Since I travel a lot and like listening to Books on CD, I am going to have to find a work around.  They also eliminated the sun glass holder in the overhead.  I have attached some photos of the 1st Tank, 2nd tank and current 50 mile MPG Fuel Average.  So far pretty Happy with the Truck.

[Sierra Dan]

Pretty Good averages!

And not relying on a couple of Turbos and 6 cylinders at that!

I am getting the 3M version as soon as the shop get the 2019 front end patterns.

I’d stay away from 3M, go with Xpel instead. To many problems with 3M.

Had not heard that!  The shop that I trust uses 3M products and it comes with a 10 year warranty!  I guess I will find out since on October 2 my front will be getting the 3M treatment.

I don't due audio books but I do listen to Podcasts.  Hardly listen to music anymore, so much info and entertaining Podcasts out there.
