Has anyone added the 110V outlet to there interior and if so how difficult. I have a 2019 RST Z71 and it does not have it and I would like to add it. I don't know if behind the blank plate if the wiring is there or not but if anyone could add some insight I would greatly appreciate it.

Simple answer. It can't be done with factory hardware.

I took that trip and found that if it's not ordered from the factory, it can't be upgraded.

I plan on doing this in mine as well, used it often in my 15.
Im going to get a good inverter and run a new primary wire from the battery (will be useful in the future as well) then connect to the factory blank with some diy.
You could most likely make 3 of your own for what the dealer wants.

Ps I believe this has been covered multiple times.

Used it for what. I just ordered a 2020 that has that inside plug. So I'm asking what would I use it for?

Everything from a crock pot to keep food warm traveling to parties, to chargers for tools. It even ran the combustion blower for my stoker stove in a pinch once when I lost power.
Iirc it was nowhere near 15 amps, couldn't run high draw items.

The panel on my 2019 Silverado 1500 RST can be pried off and voila! Two plugs are attached to the back of it. They fit perfectly into an OE electric power outlet I bought to begin a power outlet project. Car companies put in these simple inexpensive harness pigtails to make it easier for their assemblers at the plant. Now the problem presented is what/where do these go to behind the dash? The easy answer would probably be to analyze the wire color codes for the vehicle and trace them back to somewhere.

Yes there are wires there. I believe there are even wires that run to the rear for the bed plug as well. The inverter is mounted on the back wall of the cab behind the seat. However just hooking things up won't make it work like from the factory.

      I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.

      Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.

      Bridgestone vs Goodyear tires?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉

      I gotta say, I'm enjoying your narration. The troubles you've been having are amusing as you describe them. It's good to see that you're finally getting some satisfaction out the old beast though.
