Oh yeah, when I remote start, I notice that when I get in it's really nice and cool!! It turned the AC on too.  I love that!

I suspect, that in the winter, it will also turn on the heat and defrost.

I found out this weekend that while using Android Auto (maybe CarPlay as well) if you rotate the right radio knob it will zoom the map in and out.

Discovered this today.... if you press on the skinny pedal on the right, you can find Ford F-150's in the rear view mirror...   They just appear there... its like magic!  

AT4CK!

In case you were wondering...  Two bottles of wine fit in the door compartment perfectly!

And heated seats and steering wheel if you have them.

I hate the a/c dripping on the pipe! My son gets out and says my truck is cooking bacon again because of the sizzling noise.

 

Found out this morning, if youre an idiot and leave your turn signal on, it will start dinging at you and a msg will come up in the DIC to tell you to turn it off.

The a/c drip on the pipe is so annoying. I hear it every time i get out of the truck and it bothers me every time

Was at the OBX this week on vacation. When airing the tires up after wheeling on the beach, the horn beeps when each tire reaches the correct pressure.

Not an intentional feature:

 

Found one quirk in the software programming. If you rotate a temp button immediately after the Start is pressed while the gauges are cycling full scale, the HVAC will respond as set, but any push of any HVAC button brings up a message on the radio screen saying CLIMATE OFF instead of a graphic representation of the controls even though all the controls and vents are operating properly. Won't correct until a full shutdown and restart waiting until modules reboot in before using HVAC controls.

This is a glitch that occurs randomly also. There are a few threads on it.

According to the display, the remote should also raise the windows with the remote, but it only lowers them when the unlock button is pressed, holding the lock button doesn't do anything. Maybe an update in the future will make this operational.

My '16 Silverado LT would go up & down with remote, but my '19 AT4 will only go down...but by holding the lock button on the remote it'll fold in my mirrors

thank you! I noticed this like day 3 of ownership and thought I had a factory defect issue. I peak under there and i'm like really? who designed that? It's not like a/c and exhaust are new concepts.

Are we back to complaining about things rather than sharing cool features?

Well, it didn't really take that long to list out all the cool features, so...

One cool feature I discovered was the ring of backlight behind the tach and the speedo. I know, it's not earth shattering, I just think it looks cool. ?

 

Also like how the iPhone apps look different on the radio screen with Apple Play than on the phone. I like the layout of the Maps app in particular, except 3D doesn't seem to work when not in guidance mode. But Car Play, in general, is the best feature so far.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      Whoever greenlighted the work truck matte black front bumpers on every trim but the AT4X should be fired!  I was hoping that was an AI mistake, but just realized they were on every model of the 2027 Silverado too.     Some parts of the interior do look premium, but the Denali Ultimate dashboard looks like an afterthought.  At least they appear to have lost the microfiber the high end Silverado models showed, but the '27 High Country dash looks better than the Denali.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      New member here. I am researching a read-first event-recorder concept for late-model GM V8 trucks. This is not a sales post. There is no product link, price, preorder, or mailing list. I am trying to determine whether the underlying problem is real before building anything.   Has your truck ever had a brief problem such as: - rough running or a momentary misfire - an oil-pressure warning or unusual pressure event - reduced power or a brief stall - a U-code or lost-communication problem - a symptom that disappeared before the dealer or independent shop could reproduce it   If so, I would appreciate the following details: - year, model, engine, and mileage - what happened and under what conditions - whether a DTC and useful freeze-frame data were stored - whether the shop was able to reproduce it - what the eventual confirmed repair was, if known - what additional information would have helped the diagnosis   The concept being evaluated is a removable leave-in recorder that continuously retains a rolling window from before and after an event. It would not tune, reflash, clear codes, or change the vehicle calibration.   I am also not claiming that it could predict lifter failure or see every internal ECM variable.   The real question is whether continuous event history would add enough useful evidence beyond freeze frame, GDS2, and existing scan tools — or whether it would simply be another unnecessary gadget.   For owners and technicians, which problem would make something like this genuinely useful: 1. intermittent misfire or AFM/DFM-related behavior 2. oil-pressure events 3. lost communication or electrical faults 4. none of the above Please be blunt. Negative feedback is just as useful as positive feedback.

      No tears over the SLE and SLT trim levels disappearing but I kind of loathe the "Elevation" name. It's a truck--skip the elegance.   The slab-dashboard design is decidedly different. Almost has a Hummer flavor to it. "Professional Grade" seems to be leaning very white-collar, tech-driven these days moreso than blue-collar, functional design.   The Silverado would be my choice between the two new trucks. Pleased with the engine lineup in both. The GMC is a little "too much" for a truck, IMO, and the Denali borders on ridiculous - but I do know there are buyers for luxury trucks out there. It's just not my speed.

      - I like the outside but not as much as the Chevrolet.  They ICE'd the EV styling and it works, but I think exterior goes to Chevy on this one.     - SLE and SLT dead = Not.  Surprising.  Fits into the rest of the GMC lineup like this which (aside from Pro) matches the rest of the family.  Elevation, AT4, Denali.     - Interior.  Sophisticated Malaise era.  Why do I say Malaise?  Drawn with a ruler.  Rectangles everywhere.  Looks very premium though.
