FB post of the first SLE I have seen anywhere.  its a gasser.  I was worried about ordering an SLE without seeing a picture of one anywhere, but I was pleasantly surprised. 

 

Edit: This is not my truck.  This one is in Wisconsin (I'm in Texas).

Get rid of the fender reflectors and mirrors and I'd drive it.

They're actually running lights, not just reflectors but I'm with you. Not sure how I feel about them. Wonder how long it'll take someone to make aftermarket smoked grey lamps to replace them. Would look way better!

Didn’t know they were actually marker lights, can thank the ford raptor for that trend (except it’s actually DOT required of the raptor due to width). I bet your right, it would look much better smoked. But the mirrors still suck lol

Picked up this AT4 today in Columbia SC. Saw it on auto trader this morning and called and luckily it was still there. Drove from GA to get her!

Full review please.

Love it. I’ve had 5 1500s. This is my first 2500 diesel ever. Definitely a little different. Not as easy to stop and rides maybe just slightly rougher than my 1500 but I love the diesel. Stops a lot easier with the exhaust brake on. Need to read up on that a little. Inside is identical to my 2019 AT4 I traded although the screen interface is just a little different. SiriusXM looks a little different. Shows album art etc. I’m interested to see what size tires I can fit. It comes with 275/65/20 which are 34x11.8”. Surprising they fill up the wheel wells. I think I will definitely be doing a leveling kit when one is released for the 2020s. One thing I don’t like is the smaller bottom side mirrors aren’t power adjustable. Only the top ones but I think this is the case on ford and dodge too. Just makes no sense to me why they can’t make those power adjustable on a $75k truck. Anything specific you wanna know just let me know.

The more I see this truck in white the more i want it. Hopefully someone comes out with some better aftermarket mirrors and it would be perfect.

I agree. Mirrors are the only thing I’m not crazy about.

I've always wondered why the "bubble" mirrors were never made power adjustable.  Besides cost savings and not really needing to move them all that often I can't see any valid reason.  Not that cost savings is a valid reason, they nickle and dime us on everything anyway.

    • This is NOT impact damage nor neglect. There were previous class action lawsuits because of such paint preparation st GM manufacturing plant. Not just the Cherry Red Color. This paint is applied in three processes to obtain the desired color.  The manufacturer will cover for 36 months or 36k miles only. That rust is actually corrosion because of the paint process failure. Corrosion is covered for 100,100 miles or a certain months. However their corrosion doesn't include this type. Go figure. Clearly manufacturer knew from previous paint issues. This started 3 weeks ago out of the blue.  
    • Is it time to put a piece of tape over the CEL? 
    • consider doing electrical testing?  I would guess some power or ground wire/connection has a problem.   alldata.com has wiring diagrams, connector pinouts and diagnostic procedures you can use to find where the problem is.
    • can you tell if the reader is actually trying to get codes, and the pcm is reporting none, or is your reader just silently failing because it's not communicating with the pcm?
    • Any joy with this truck seems to be short-lived.   The CEL for P0172 ("bank 1" too rich) is now "intermittent".   I'm not sure where to check, or re-check, and my energy to keep chasing problems with junk is wearing thin. The P0172 seems to set as I'm coming to a stop, completely off the throttle, when fully warm. At least, that's what it's done the 3? times it's set.   Everything appears normal on the scanner EXCEPT long term fuel trim. There's only one bank on this vehicle because it's an OBD 1.5 with only one upstream O2 sensor. At idle, it's around -16.4% and will dip to -18% occasionally at idle or off-throttle. LTFT approaches 0 when throttle is held at 2500rpm. Short term appears normal, much closer to zero all the time. The LTFT tells me the engine is running rich at idle but compensating at higher load. But, why?   The EVAP purge valve doesn't appear to be leaking/sucking fuel vapor continuously. Is it sticking just as I come to a stop and the engine is choking on fuel vapor and sets the P0172? But that doesn't explain the persistently negative LTFT. Disconnecting the purge valve doesn't seem to make any difference.   I suppose that leaves another dang issue with the fuel injector. A leaking fuel pressure regulator, a new leak in the spider, or a leaking fuel injector/poppet valve I didn't see, or a small crack in one of the spider legs.   The vacuum line leading to the fuel pressure regulator doesn't have raw fuel in it. It doesn't even smell like fuel when it's pulled off, not until you suck air through it, then you can tell it leads to a fuel component. I'd consider that normal? Nothing is signaling this is a FPR issue from the outside, at least.   The oil smells like fuel but it's not building volume. I've noticed most oil in most engines smells like fuel to some degree so it's hard to say if the smell is an issue or not. Or if the engine just still smells like fuel because the crankcase was full of it a few hundred miles ago. But it's been changed twice since that original issue of the leaking fuel line dumping fuel into the intake.   Patience is running very thin. Every win seems to be accompanied by two steps backwards, or another issue that leads to removing at least the top half of the intake manifold. Enough! LOL
