I didn’t have trouble keeping the plastic on the old 2002 Avalanche looking new. Every three months treatment took about 15 minutes. It was a lot of plastic. -
Agree, they make good parts. Ford trucks use to run Roadmaster sway bars almost exclusively, while us GM guys ran Helwig sway bars. -
Oh yea, cost cutting for sure but its driven by market shift. Less and less people want chrome, and chroming costs more than painting. There are coatings that work with unpainted plastics. Adam's Graphene works. -
I remember the old slide recipe with carbon paper. My first job after getting my license was pumping gas at a Getty Service Station in NJ. I worked there for about 4 months before my father hired me to be a fueler and greaser at his company. He would never take us to work. I had no idea the size of his company. Only because he didn’t want us to be exposed to the language. I was shocked at how my uncle’s and father spoke on the job.

Agreed, it definitely appears to follow the EV motif, especially because it appears to follow the rockers on the Sierra too.... but has to be a cost saving measure as well. Between rocks and bugs and driving 20K+ a year on Texas highways, I can keep the painted front ends looking decent with PPF and a thorough periodic cleaning, but the unpainted plastic cant be coated, or cleaned up well. The same plastic underneath the bumpers on all our current generation trucks is beat to hell after 2 years or less on the road.
