Picked mine up yesterday...came in pretty quick!...like just under three weeks. I also want to say anyone in So Cal definitely look up American Camper in Garden Grove. They beat everyone’s price in Temecula and San Diego by a lot!...and the customer service was awesome!

I was just about to call those guys for an estimate for the same shell installed on my Trail Boss. Do you mind sharing what you paid so I can make sure I’m getting a deal? Thanks!

I started a new thread because I didn’t find this one first so here’s a repost from there.

I recently had my shell arrived and had it installed.e8ef3400973b78c6bd7daa58de73507b.jpg
It's a Leer 100XR color matched to my truck. It took almost 2 months from order date to delivery which is a little longer than expected. All manufactures told me 6-8 weeks.
 
The options I added are, removable front window so I can clean between without taking the cap off. Power locks which tie into the truck and work via the remote, door handle button and keypad. Headliner in black since a bed rug only comes in black and I might add the floor later so I wanted them to match. Thule rack tracks to mount a roof rack which I had from my last vehicle to carry surfboards and kayaks. There is one interior light right behind the brake light which I think came standard.
 
The shop only charged $60 for install and I'm glad they did it. It took close to two hrs for install to run the wiring for the door locks, brake light and interior light. It probably would have taken me longer.
 
My total cost was $2990.90 after tax. See below for the price breakout from my receipt.
 
This is a cab high model, the interior height is 41" from floor (top of ribs) to ceiling. The tailgate opening is 35.5" high.
 
Ceiling height is enough to sit up with about 5" of head clearance. Later I'm sure I'll camp out in the back on solo trips with my boy instead of hauling a full trailer.ceeca62d7e2ea15338b9ba8e8dcab121.jpg

Anyone seen a fiberglass cap for a 19+ Silverado with the full rear hatch?  Trying to replace a Suburban for the fire department, the hatch is something we really want to try to retain without spending $25,000 more for a Suburban.  Looking for something similar to the walk in offering from ARE but don't need all the glass and the walk-in door, just the hatch.

ARE Evolve shell installed. Though it wasn't listed as available for the standard size bed on their web site, I contacted them and they confirmed it was. It did take 10 weeks to get, but so far I do like it a lot.

Anyone running a canopy with the multiflex tailgate?  I am hoping to transfer over an existing canopy from a 2020 TB to a 2021 TB. I can’t tell from the pictures of there will be interference with the rear window. The canopy is an ARE Z2. Thanks.

Learn from my mistake and never order over the phone from a dealer. Initially called around multiple dealers in my area, decided to go with one an hour away since they quoted about 15% cheaper. Called the dealer and they didn't have a problem doing it over the phone since I knew all of my truck specs, VIN, etc. I spec'd out a Leer 100XR with thule roof tracks and carpeted headliner (free upgrade during April promo). Gave them my down payment, emailed invoice, and was told 4-6 weeks on delivery. I call 4 weeks in to seek an update and I get a call back from the manager stating he forgot to verify the VIN on my truck so my order was frozen since time of invoice. I discuss cancelling my order and he offered to take the cost of wiring harness and labor off ($200), it sounded fair so I stuck with it. 6 weeks after original invoice I call to get update and what my amount owed at time of delivery. They say a number that was ~$150 more than my original invoice that I was looking at while on the phone with them. When officially submitting my invoice (with the VIN this time) the april headliner promo expired putting that charge on the invoice. What a disaster. They continuously state during our conversation that they shouldn't have done an over the phone order. They agree to eat the cost of the carpeted headliner to bring the price back down to the original. All said and done I'm now looking at 10 week delivery minimum. Hope its worth it!

Finally got my Leer 100XR installed. 10 week delivery total. Pretty happy with it initially. Anyone else notice the paint match is a little off when you get up close? My truck is ceramic coated, so I am unsure if it is just the reflective/mirror properties make it look that way in the light.

    • HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.      
    • I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it. 
    • So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29. 
    • Any grease on the stud threads of any kind?   Wheel studs should have NOTHING on them for proper torquing and so the nuts don't back off.     Are all of the mating surfaces clean?  So wheel, rotor and hub?     We've had plenty of trucks at work with that wheel, this is a first to me.  Makes me think they've got a lube tech putting anti-seize on all the wheel studs or some kind of grease, and they need to stop doing that.  To have 11 other trucks with the same exact problem.      
    • I was a Chevy guy for years, then switched to GMC because I liked the looks better.  I'm actually thinking I like the Chevy looks better than GMC for the first time in a lot of years.   One thing I know for certain, the new GMC dash is hideous!  Chevy wins this one!
