2019 Satin Steel Or White ???


Recommended Posts

Posted

Yes...to be honest I could deal with most colors besides black or shadow grey...and regular red.

Cajun red is also sweet. Northsky may be the best...That was actually my first choice...and leaning back to it as well.

In my mind, all the other colors outside of white will require about the same work to keep clean.

Not to repost, but what did you think if this?  I agree white with white grille doesn't look so good.  I like this grill though. 

 

In person I think satin steel looks far less blue than in the pics. 

 

Personally I don't like Northsky Blue very much.  It's going to be a maintenance nightmare as blue is probably the second hardest to keep clean next to black.  I wish they kept Ocean Blue/ Stone blue.

Ocean Blue/ Stone blue is what I have now....it's not too bad to keep clean, middle of the road. However, the Northsky is a little darker.. in return would be worse to maintain. And yes.. probably not much better than black.

The RST above in the GM Authority article is Silver Ice Metallic.

Probably not hard to keep clean either.

GM used to have a Light Pewter Metallic back in the day on GMT800 trucks that was great.

I also liked the Silver Birch Metallic on my '05 Avalanche.

Yeah, I was more referring to the grill than anything else.  I think it looks a lot better than the color match in most colors.

I had a ‘15 white 2500 and loved the ease of maintenance. However I went back to black so I’d go with the satin steel. There is just something rewarding to see the hard work put into a good detail.

I've noticed how some colors look different (usually better) in person, so maybe you could fund a real-life example of the satin-steel to gauge how it looks.  The same color is probably already in use on other GM models.  Obviously silver, white, and black don't require much imagination.  Tough decision, that's for sure.

What color do you guys like better on the RST  - Satin Steel or White?  Again, just talking about these two colors.. and only on the RST with the color coded front and rear bumpers.

White! With the weather expected to get so much hotter, obviously worse every year, white is beautiful too. My white Gmc barely hot to the touch versus all other colors.

Man you just ruined it for me...  I love white on a truck.  I will never get this out of my head...

Sorry..... I just see things for what they are! :dunno:

Hard denying it looks like a Storm Trooper though...  LOL

    • Enjoy the new truck, it’s a beauty. I’m glad you’re keeping the OBS, I love those old trucks. 
    • With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece. 
    • are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.
    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.
