Picked up this bed cover In excellent condition for FREE (found ad on fb marketplace thought it was a scam but it was legit) same color as my truck!!! All hardware was included with key, lady purchased a new trifold bed at 4wheel parts in Denton I just had to pick up front the store. Looked it up and it cost about 2k for this cover

So finally getting the truck put together, they did paint the bumpers and the rear passenger side of the cab today, buddy told me to get out the shop so they could finish should be about 2 more weeks for another update hopefully with the wheels on.4F53A605-2235-45E4-9A6A-C09FB0F32FD6.thumb.jpeg.787b1b8638bd67850a64a584d5d34967.jpeg

I'm Back! after a hiatus from posting.... I'm back. no longer have the 2020 2500 Custom.... traded that off for a 2022 2500 Z71 LT... loved that truck.. but it too was a lease. I changed careers back in 2021 and have a company supplied truck to use every day. the cost of a lease for a vehicle seemed a waste after that. When I got rid of the 2022 I made a panic buy in the crap used market and bought a used tundra.... (go ahead and judge me)..... it was not the truck for me. I sold it just after xmas , and in January found and bought this! 2020 Silverado 1500 double cab 4x4 LT.... with the 3.0L Duramax. seemed a good fit for towing my camper (6500 LBS GVW) and deck trailer with the RZR (2800 lbs) as well as just being a weekend warrior. truck has the convenience package so has the rear slider, along with heated seats and wheel. has a spray in liner, and came with wheel to wheel running boards (may change these out yet not sure) as well as a tonneau cover (that opens from the front as well the back of course) and the trailering mirrors. I added the OEM rear wheel well liners , and the OEM hard plastic splash guards. clean local history on it with no accidents and meticulous service records including. so far am totally loving this truck and so happy to be back in a GM.....

I am awaiting some nicer weather as I have the centre console sitting in my garage waiting to swap into it... as well as I picked up a set of OEM Sierra SLT 20's (polished aluminum) to toss on..... 

I miss the ride height and size of the 3/4 ton a bit... but for just rattling around in.. a half ton is far superior. no intent of upgrading our camper , and if we did we'd be staying in the same size and weight class anyway. 

 

TLDR - IM BACK! in a 1500 W/ A 3.0L and couldn't be happier!!

 

plans aside of the rims and console I have to go on include adding factory foglight setup , possible a slight larger block in the rear (give it a rake to compensate for the towing squat) maybe a level in the front (my skinny ass had a hard time sliding under the running boards on a creeper to change the fuel filter) and looking at doing the katzkin leather swap (had it done in my 2011 and loved it)

also looking at getting a Banks iGauge to monitor DPF soot level, re gens etc as I know the importance of that working for a heavy equipment dealership...

 

More pics and updates to come!

So here a few pictures of the truck with 3” bodylift and 7” fts lift (going 9” with the coilovers and buying bigger rear blocks) i did have them install a rear add a leaf to rasie the rear end so it’s actually level right now but wont be when I install the coilover only reason im going with bigger rear blocks.74A3E303-4E06-4B13-B7B6-2157141E445C.thumb.jpeg.0a10e4ef6a9358737a099b91ddb71b7f.jpeg

Got excited and put the 28x16 on even though I gotta take them off to take to another shop to install coilover and bigger rear blocks, just to get an idea how high it is the hood is same height as the Yukon roof in front of it.IMG_0199.thumb.jpeg.31c032d14bed40c1577f0320be4f6555.jpeg

    • I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.
    • I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments
    • Looks like the entire state is burning. 😬
    • Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
