Truck looks great !  Always nice to get away to peace and quiet...don't need an excuse...lol.    Heard you guys might be getting a little taste of winter by the end of the week ?  ?

That’s what the bastards at the weather channel say, 3 straight days of snow over the weekend.

Beautiful truck!

 

Also, curious... what does the TX Edition package add to the LTZ? My neighbor here in DFW has an LTZ with the TX Edition package, and I wasn't sure what that adds to the LTZ? I know what it adds on the LT trim, but I thought a lot of the TX Edition / All Star package already came standard on the LTZ trims?

It depends on what other packages you have with the vehicle, there are some that duplicate  the items that are included.

 

Without any other packages selected it adds: (adds in safety and convenience package automatically)

  • Front and Rear Park Assist
  • Front center console
  • Heated second row outboard seats
  • Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert
  • Front bucket seats
  • LTZ Convenience Package
  • Rear Cross Traffic Alert
  • Power Up and Down Tailgate
  • Power sliding rear window with rear defogger
  • Universal Home Remote
  • Safety Package
  • USB ports
  • Ventilated driver and front passenger seats

Basically Texas edition is everything in the LTZ premium package  minus the sunroof for my vehicle, But I still got the sunroof.  You get a Texas badge too and you cant go wrong with that!

Great looking trucks everyone! Recieved a phone call from my dealer saying that i could trade in my 2018 sierra elevation dbl cab on a 2019 sierra elevation with a crew cab and a few more bells for the same financing payments I have now. Was just looking for some opions on if it would be worth it or not from those who own a '19 and if there are many problems with the new models (I've read about the few people having break issues)

    • 87 down as low as $5.14 here... winning!
    • Progress... sort of.   Intake is disassembled, spider is out, fuel lines removed. Used a torch on the stripped screw with the lower intake off, much easier when I've got the intake sitting on my workbench, I made it talk. Walked right out with a pair of vice grips once it was nice and toasty hot.   New parts are piling up on my service cart waiting to be installed. Distributor, temperature sensor, new gaskets, fuel line kit, themostat, water neck.   My new pickle is I don't want to spend $600 on a replacement spider. I'm not sure IT is bad. I'm probably splitting hairs. Or it's $300 to send mine away and another 3 weeks of the truck just sitting. I have half a mind to assemble everything with the old spider to see if I can get away with just replacing the fuel pressure regulator to be safe. The obvious issue was the gushing high pressure fuel line which will be replaced. Getting to the spider really isn't that hard, and now I know what I'm doing , swapping it would be a breeze should it absolutely need one. Stupid, or smart?   The part that gives me pause is replacing the distributor. Well, it's already out. And I didn't mark it, whoopsie! Engine was at TDC when I removed it, I know that, so upon correct reinstall the metal tip on the rotor should point to the TDC mark on the distributor because that's where it was pointing on the old distributor. Worst case I'm a tooth off and have to re-stab it.   But then, what? I assume the truck will start. It doesn't appear the timing can be set. Here's the problem: These distributors can't be rotated but a degree or two, by design. What I read is Cam ****** needs to be -2 to +2 degrees, ideally at 0 (and checked/set above 1000 rpm). There should be enough wiggle to get that properly set, but checking the reported value is another potential issue. My Actron 9185 scanner says it supports enhanced GM PIDs and Cam ****** is one of them but it's unclear that I'll be able to correctly see it over OBD 1.5. I can see why people end up junking these things with life left in them. They're an absolute nightmare with tweener-year diagnostics/electronics and unobtanium parts.   Fingers crossed it starts and idles nicely. There can be hope, right? I'ma buy a lottery ticket the same day just in case.   Next steps..DO IT. I have not installed an intake before so I've been reading and watching a lot. Some say NO RTV except on china walls, some say DO RTV on water ports but not fuel/air intake. 1/4 or 3/8 bead on China walls? I think my strategy will be, obviously, RTV china walls with overlap on the gasket corners. Chapstick-style RTV the water ports. Leave intake ports dry. The only set of intake gaskets I could find locally are Edelbrock performance gaskets (uh...for an asthmatic 190hp V6? LOL) so we'll see how they do.   #NoToolLeftBehind. It took an hour, but my recovery mission for my deep 10mm socket was successful. It had rolled down the bellhousing and wedged itself between what I think are the fuel lines? I couldn't see it at all, but with a junk antenna I had laying around, I blindly went poking/sweeping for it, heard it clink, raised the truck, and caught a sliver glimpse of chrome with a flashlight way up there in Narnia. I had pushed it farther along the lines holding it captive, but within access of severely improvised tools, poking and cursing at it to finally knock it free to where I could get a fingertip on it to bring it home.    Not much to see.
