Looks awesome..How are you liking the new 6.6?

it seems considerably stronger than the 6.0 that was in my 18 . i tow a 24' enclosed car hauler that weighs about 9000 pounds loaded, so its not real heavy. i'am pleased with it so far but i only have about 100 miles on it with the trailer. i haven't payed close attention to the mileage yet but it is better than the 6.0 was. the 3:73 gears are ok but i think the 4:10's would bring the motor alive but with a 6 sp. would probably hurt the mileage too much for some guys .  so far the motor is super smooth and i'am definitely pleased with it.     

  the next step is to get the tpms in the trailer wheels and the 2 accessory cameras on and in the trailer.

Good to hear.  I also need to get the sensors in the trailer tires.  Are you getting the accessory camera’s from GM or somewhere else?  I’d like to get a couple as well.

On a side note, if anyone is taking aftermarket wheels with sensors from their previous truck, the sensors have changed.  The new style are $34.00 a piece from GM.

i'am going to get the GM accessory cameras, don't know if it matters  but i feel better with GM parts that were originally designed to work with the system they designed. i'am planning on ordering them from the link posted in another thread on this site. they seem to have the best price.

what level kit?

I dont know... the delaer gave me the original torsion keys and added 1" blocks in the rear.   It drives nice.  Call Dennis Dillion accessory shop and ask for paul.. he can tell you what kit they use.

I had my dealer sell them to me for $50 since that was the price when ordering the truck, they wanted $150 at the dealer.  He had to order them so all I have right now is a We Owe

New to the forum, so I'll start by saying hello and I look forward to learning all I can about the 2020 trucks.  I picked up a 3500hd ltz Duramax on August 8th and already have 3000 miles on it.  I've done about 1000 miles of towing with it already and it is a beast.  I went from a 2016 3500hd with the 6.0 and I'm just amazed how much less this truck works pulling the same load.  If anyone has any questions feel free to ask away since I already have about month behind the wheel.

    • A little girl said her prayers every night before bed and she asked G d to watch after each person she loved. One night she forgot to pray for her babysitter and her babysitter died. A few days later she forgot to pray for someone else and they died. The next night she forgot to pray for her dad. The next morning her dad was terrified. A bus almost crashed into him. He almost fell off a fifty foot ladder and almost wrecked on the way home. When he arrived home, he said I had a terrible day. His wife replied, “You think you had a bad day? My aerobics teacher died during class.
    • Nice! I had one here, once. The car dealer I used to haul for stopped by with it. That was over 10 years ago now. Those are SUPER rare these days, especially up here! Never even see them at car shows anymore.   https://postimg.cc/0rvcNZ1W
    • I remember watching one of the auctions on TV. It just happened that they had two little red express trucks. My brother bought one new in 1979, still has it. So I hung on to watch them cross. The retro redone example brought more bids and went for more money than the original one did. My brother has redone his 3 times and raced it. He’s now in the process of making more tame for cruising. 
    • I always upgraded the suspension and steering components - bushings and ball joints, and had older cars that I could out-corner ANY modern car with. I used to be able to take my '78 Cutlass on off-ramps at stupid speeds and make the sharp MA corners without even squealing the tires. So much fun. My '72 El Camino must've had work done by the previous owner, since that thing seemed to handle even better than the '78.   I think the suspension & steering on the '72 was much more advanced than the '64, so that probably just made a good system even better.   I'm the same way with vehicles. I hate having to worry about the paint on my '93 W250 Cummins. I'm not used to that, lol.   https://postimg.cc/mzKr55sY
    • BEAUTIFUL!! That a Cutlass F85? Or 442? My side-ID skills are lacking thanks to failing memory, lol. Love that color & year, too!   Yeah I was never big on entering my own stuff, but I always liked seeing what everyone had, the rare models, and what's been modified. That was always fun. These days I have barely enough time to do what needs to be done at home.    Oddly enough, here in MA there are more car shows than ever in history! You'd think up here it would be dead, but it's bigger than EVER!          Took the 940 for its maiden voyage with the carburetor. At first I couldn't get out of the yard! This originally had the "Bosch" system (our other 940 has Regina - single fuel pump in fuel tank, and space-age-looking ignition coil on driver's fender) - that has dual fuel pumps. One in the tank, and one under the center left of the vehicle. I had unplugged the external one thinking I wouldn't need it with the carburetor ... but the way I have the pressure regulator hooked up, 90% of the fuel volume is going back to the fuel tank, so cranked all the way down, the regulator is only supplying a hair above 3.5 PSI to the carb. Turns out the in-tank pump (15 PSI alone, instead of 45) couldn't handle the load. Plugged it back in and went for a rip. Ran great!   Throttle response is always amazing with carburetors. ZERO delay that no FI system can reproduce. Also fires up in half the crank rotations as before. Low end power was DRAMATICALLY improved. There was an ongoing lean issue with the FI that I got tired of figuring out, so this is a MASSIVE improvement! Above 50 MPH on hills it feels SUPER weak, though. This is more than likely due to the timing not being advanced enough by the computer, since it believes there are multiple failures. I can live with that through the winter. Will keep me from passing slowpokes where I shouldn't and getting speeding tickets at least. 😁
