Hopefully whoever's styling the new front end wears their glasses this time.

It’s interesting to me all the complaining with the interior. I’ve got the 8” screen and while the analog buttons seem a bit out of place, the interior is light years better than my last 3 trucks. I

For the love of god, i hope the interior is updated  .  But i'm excited to see what the new 22 trucks look like  You guys think the engines will finally get a power bump ?  This is going on

having just sold my 2019 due to its “lemon-like” issues, I wonder if the 2022 should be considered a “first MY” like experience just like my 2019 felt and if a 2021 will be more reliable long term.

 

not sure I drive it enough to really appreciate the addition of “super cruise”.

 

what do ya’ll think?

I'd love to have Super Cruise. My truck isn't my daily driver, I typically drive it on the weekends, and usually long distance trips to the coast or the mountains. I can definitely appreciate the upgrade, don't know that I'll be ready to spend the money though. I went from a 14 to a 16, but that was helped along by my 14 having the driveline vibration issues. My 19 has been solid, and if it stays that way, I intent to keep it a while.

This is going on 8 years with the same engine output.

The 2020 took away rear door buttons that unlock the door.. my 2019 has it on all four doors, the 2020 has only on front doors.

 

Maybe for 2022, they'll just take the damn door buttons away!

Theoretically, it shouldn’t be looked at as a “first MY” truck because it’s just a styling refresh, and maybe an updated interior. Again theoretical, the main bugs should be worked out by the 2022 MY. Theoretically I will likely be disappointed in my optimism.

 

I like theories.

Safe to assume most, if not all, of the electronics will be new...welcome back the bugs. My truck’s bugs never left anyway. At worst it’s a lateral move for me.

That's classic GM decontenting for you. They aren't the only ones to do it, just the best (or worst). They'll tell you "you can still get lock/unlock buttons on the rear door, you just have to move up to an LTZ/SLT or higher trim."

They aren’t the first, but they are by far the worst.

No, they took out the buttons for the rear doors completely, that's why I am glad I have a 2019. I am always using that button to get my bags of groceries in the back seat. My friend's 2020 High Country doesn't even have it, only in the front doors. My lowly RST has it on all four doors. Even if the 2022 had an upgraded dash, I probably wouldn't go for it. Gotta have that button on the rear doors! All day long, I'm making errands and putting stuff there.

Hard to say but it looks like the 2022 mule in question has the buttons on the back doors.

If a button is something that turns you away I can only imagine the other stuff in your life that is so below you lol.

 

I have a key fob with a button that unlocks all 4 doors at once, I'm not sure what is so hard about touching a button once to do the same thing.

What if they're using a 2019 and using it as a fake mule to throw off the paparazzi? A while ago, I saw Opel doing that with the Insignia when I was in Poland (about an hour away from Berlin, Germany). The car had stuff all over it and I gave it a hard look. Even got close enough so I could peek in the "bra" of the car and it was exactly the same as the one I was renting at the same time. The headlights, the grille, then the guy said it was a fake mule to throw off the photographers. He figured I wasn't a car nut so he was a little open about it. Actually, I was, but just didn't know ****** about German Opel cars.

      Scan Tool Recommendation

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      I just bought this. A minimum for me but, I don`t work anymore and don`t want the heavy update costs of the higher end tools. You would have to make money with them.   https://www.topdon.us/collections/diagnostic-tools/products/artidiag-pro   Even this tool has a $250.00 update cost after 2 years.

      Scan Tool Recommendation

      By CamGTP · Posted

      I have an Autel, works great for what it is. Can't do some specific things because you need say the GM tool, VCDS for Audi/Volkswagon and others of course. But those times are few and far between for me.   The other tool I'd like to try one day is the new Topdon scan tools. Seen several video's on them and many youtube people review them.    I've never subscribed for updates or payed to do that stuff on my Autel, so I'm sure I'm missing out on some of the updates but I'm fine with that for now.

      Scan Tool Recommendation

      By AndrewF · Posted

      I am in the market for a bidirectional scan tool so was hoping someone can help point me in the right direction. There are so many options out there it is hard to narrow down which make/model to choose.   I have always done my own vehicle work so looking to maximize capability with the scanner. Ideal price is $1k or less but would be willing to exceed if it opens up significant benefits.  Currently my 24 2500 is the newest vehicle but also have a few mid to late 2010s Subarus as well.    It seems that the Autel MP900 has a decent amount of features at a reasonable price?

      Silverado 4500-5500-6500 are they still being produced? Would have sold better as GMCs as well

      By C/K Man · Posted

      There was talk over the last couple of years that the contract to build these trucks between GM and International would not be renewed.  International moved production of all their other trucks besides the companion CV model out of the Springfield plant some time ago when they opened their San Antonio plant.  That left Springfield only building the Silverado Medium Duty, International CV Series, and some Express/Savanna long wheelbase cutaways.  International also put the plant up for sale some time ago.  This all answered my earlier question as to why GM and International did nothing with these trucks since they were introduced, as they had basically become a market 'placeholder' with a finite life.    The Silverado Medium Duty/International CV trucks were interesting combination of a GM powertrain, electrical system, and K2XX Silverado cab with an International chassis that was supposedly designed for a step-van type vehicle they never produced.  They were manufactured in International's Springfield plant along with the IH MV series initially.  When first introduced, there was much talk that the Silverado Medium Duty/CV would eventually get a gasoline engine option along with other upgrades and GM and IH would work on a class 6/7 joint venture truck.  This was before VW bought Navistar out, after that happened no more was said.  Draw your own conclusions...   About the time talk started that the GM/IH joint venture was not going to be renewed, rumors started that GM would develop a new line of medium duty trucks themselves.  The story is the new trucks will be part of the next generation HD's due in 2028, and will still feature a 'straight rail' chassis design that the current medium duty has.  GM views this as a desirable feature that differentiates their truck from the competition.  A gasoline engine option is also expected.  As the current Silverado Medium Duty remains in production until September 2026 and there is still a lot of inventory available do not expect any official word for some time.   I believe GM remains committed to their successful partnership with Isuzu, and all the LCF models will still be available from Chevy Commercial dealers.  Isuzu is on the cusp of opening a new large plant in South Carolina and there is also speculation that this may result in new product for both Isuzu and Chevy Commercial dealers.
