Glad to see this thread as I tow a lot and also load ATVs in the bed. Just upgraded a week ago to a Sierra from an F150. Re: the ball though... I usually pull mine out when not towing and leave it in the trailer. Minimizes risk of damage to the MultiPro, but also prevents rust in the receiver over time. Nice truck!

Glad to see this issue hasnt gone unnoticed. Ill open the inner gate for multiple reasons and having to close it to drop the maingate is almost canceling out the use of it. I need to open the tonneau cover, close the inner gate if theres no lumber or load (which in that case it becomes shoulder day). Once i get the inner gate up i can finally open the main gate. Hitch or not just a poor design. Set it up where a few extra presses on the maingate button and it will open is all that needs done. Sure i could unload whatever is resting on the gate but whos to say im unloading whats in the truck and not loading more in.... for the price of the gate and the flimsyness of the plastic not sure im sold. Im 39 and each day loving the steps more and more though. Kicker should have been included for the price as well.

    • The rotor couldn't be turned so I replaced it. Installed new pads on both sides and called it a day.   Peace
    • I've tried everything and still have the rattle.  My next thing to eliminate is the seatbelt connection on the real pillar.  The cover seems loose and could be the source.  I found one of my grandsons video games in the back seat rest compartment   and had a glimmer of joy, but that wasn't it.  I'll keep trying.  
    • I'm tangentially aware of what Harley used to be, back in my riding days, although I was into Italian sport bikes. Ducati seems to have gone the other way; still very expensive, but they've made a large subset of their bikes a lot more reliable and accessible, and they've diversified their lineup to include other riding sports too. IMO, a good example of where greed and growth might have also been beneficial to the consumer.   Although GM is charging a relative premium for its most popular pickups, I find that there are some excellent value propositions in its lineup as well.   The Colorado still strikes me as the most attractive midsize on the market, and also the most reasonably priced given capability and features. There's a part of me that wishes I would have bought one instead of my Silverado.   The Equinox ...I must be getting old. The ICE equinox is a great design IMO. Probably because it reminds me visually of an actual SUV aka an S Blazer. Underneath it's nothing even remotely close, but it LOOKS good. It's got all the modern features plus some at a very reasonable price. If I had to run out and buy myself a daily commuter to do everything except tow, an Equinox would be on my list.   It does bug me that mid-tier 1500's reach into the 50-60k range, and Tahoes and Burbs are even more expensive. Less than 10 years ago, dealers were sitting on rows of Tahoe LS and LT's for low 40's. You could even still find Tahoes with a front bench, still!
    • Big oil is raking in billions from the Iran war. Can it avoid Trump’s fury?   Remember I said Big Oil is 'Vertically Integrated"?   Even as they no longer own the majority of the "Pump" they still own the "Well". Crude price upward pressure does not translate into that same pressure on production. Pumping cost remain unaffected and the gap is pure profit. Even after subtraction of a minor, comparatively, lower amount from supposed, but not always, realized refining volume. Consumers hate war, Big Oil, not so much.
