I believe the limited speed has more to do with what tires the truck is outfitted with from the factory.   All tires have a speed rating, and you cannot exceed it without risking tire failur

Yeah, NHT trucks are somewhat hard to come by. But the dealer here almost exclusively orders them. Pretty much every 6.2 that’s not a Denali comes ordered with it. I had a HC, LTZ and a few SLTs to pi

2019 LTZ 6.2 with MTP and 3.73 rear end 106 top speed limited 20" rims

How did you get 3.73 rear end???   I have 3.23. Would love 3.73s. I thought highest  rear end was 3.42s in gas and 3.73 with the new half ton diesel. 
 

I have 2019 High Country with 22s and it shuts off at 112 mph.

Had to order the Max Trailering Package. Has heavier springs and shocks and lower rear gears. Unbelievable difference with the 6.2....bit stiffer rear end ride but worth it for the launch and mid range acceleration

Max trailering package gives ya 3.42s, not 3.73s. I have the same truck, 2019 LTZ 6.2 with NHT (max trailering package).

That’s what I thought. I looked for one with 3.42 but couldn’t find one. 
 

3.73s would be awesome to have though.

Pretty much every 6.2 that’s not a Denali comes ordered with it. I had a HC, LTZ and a few SLTs to pick from. The HC was the wrong color and the SLTs couldn’t get the tech package at that time so I landed with the LTZ.

 

From what I’ve seen, there’s not a big performance difference between 3.23 and 3.42 trucks. They are all within a tenth or two of each other to 60.
 

3.73 would definitely make a more noticeable difference, but only getting it with a 6 speed or a Diesel is a 👎 from me.

Is there any good reason to be going faster than that?
Some states have higher speed limits than others, and trying to make a pass in those states will require higher speed.

Also, going offroad, such as the Bonneville Salt Flats, and playing around is another good reason.

Both of those scenarios I've experienced. I hit the speed limiter on my Silverado when passing a semi on a 2 lane road. It surprised me. Fortunately, there was no oncoming traffic that I was trying to beat when I made my pass.

Strange,

2020 High Country with 22s and mine shuts off at 106.

Ya. I have seen that too with a few 2020s. Idk if it’s a 2019 thing but I believe another gentlemen on here has a 2019 and his is 112 also. Must have changed it up for 2020. I have the Bridgestone Alenza tires. What’s does yours come with??

Obviously a recent (past 3 months) software update has reduced the speed limit on mine from 110+mph to 98mph.  Stock 18 inch rims with GY Duratrecs.

2021 Trail Boss Custom 6.2 w/20's hit 115mph on the GPS because my tires are larger than stock. Computer ends your fun at 112mph on 20's, 98mph on 18's.

      Ac not keeping up

      Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
