Yes, depending on what trim level you are looking at.

Wouldn't it have been easier to just google this or go to the Chevy/GMC site instead of asking here?

Well I used this link from GM - https://www.vehicleaccessorycenter.com/inc/files/editor/files/2019_CHEVROLET_FULL_T1_Final.pdf

and as you can see there not listed.  I also googled it and found nothing.

 

I had no idea a GM forum wasn't for asking questions....go figure

Your question was so vague and does not specify whether  you want to know if the brand new trucks offer it as an option or you are looking to add it to an existing truck. Phrase your question the right way and you will get better answers.

So are you the forum police?  If you don't know the answer...and evidently you don't...how bout just don't respond.  Why would I ask the question unless I wanted to buy them for my truck?  My question says do they offer for 2019 trucks.  Wouldn't that be considered new?  Looks like you just want to find something to complain about.  Or maybe you know the answer but you just don't like to share with others....lol...come on man

Not trying to pick at you but I think people were unsure of whether you actually already had the truck or were asking if sensors were an option if you were perhaps shopping for a new truck. Not really worth debating over - simply confusion. Sometimes what seems like a simple question doesn’t always have an equally simple answer, as I feel you could possibly find out in this case.

 

You wouldn’t look for standard equipment like sensors, steering wheels, engines or wire harnesses on a GM accessories site. You’d probably have to find a truck that already has the sensors and use the VIN off of it in order to find all the parts that would need to be ordered for whatever kind of sensors you’re wanting (park assist, blind spot, cross traffic alert, etc.) as well as knowing whether or not this can all be integrated into the vehicle you have (maybe you will need a new driver seat for the vibration warnings). You may need an upgraded Infotainment system so you can change settings. Any extra switches needed, or harnesses. Not that I am any sort of expert, but I can see this potentially turning into a huge project as far as just gathering all the required parts.

 

Next, I’d think you would need to know what, if anything, will need to be programmed.

 

Probably not a complete answer but I would hope it serves 2 purposes showing why people asked about your truck situation & then the scope of the research that might be needed. For all I know you might be able to walk into a dealer and ask them for a complete list of parts needed for a specific package and all the programming & labor.

 

Whatever you end up finding out & doing, I hope all goes well & sorry I’m not knowledgeable enough to fully answer your question but maybe it and the responses above will get you started in the right direction.

Did you ever find parking/backup sensors? Recently received a new company truck SLT one would think it would come with these. Mine did not... 

Can they be added with out too much cost?

 

I talked to a buddy from Edmonds and seems to think a dealer can add them.....but new bumpers and wiring seems like it would cost a lot more than than if you just got safety pkg....my 2019 had them my 2020 2500 doesn't, not huge deal but if it wasn't too much maybe

I have a 2021 GMC 1500 and the rear bumper has sensors into it with looks like relays on each side of the bumper. When I am in reverse I have the indicator telling me how close I am to anything in back of me but no alarm. I went into the dealer and was told my truck did not come with back up alarm even it has sensors and relays in rear bumper. can I somehow hook these sensors up so my back up alarm works?

I have enjoyed reading the conversations about the backup sensors. I am the owner of a 2023 GMC SLT Sierra 1500. My vehicle does not have the back up sensors and I was wondering if there were some kind of place where I could have some sensors put on my rear bumper, but after reading all these comments and it makes sense that it would have to be programmed and all this and that so I’m kind of getting disappointed . it seems that it would be too much trouble to have it done ,if possible and very expensive if you had it done at a GM dealership ,they would probably charge you a whole lot. I just wish my 2023 GMC Sierra had come with these back up sensors and front sensors also .just wondering if it can be done correctly and at a fairly reasonable cost?

      seat base height *lowering* (base 40/20/40 seat, 2026 1500 WT std cab)

      By bwiese · Posted

      Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose

      I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
