Do you even own a "19/'20? Or are you still driving tbe vibrating shakerado with the loose popping seat? Show us your '19/'20 truck and tell us the problem you have with it. 

Did you miss the UGLY part? 

Why buy again what I wouldn't buy to begin with.  

 

Don't you talk about Pepper like that. Shes a sensitive girl. :) She now has 126 K on the clock and has yet to show a single issue attributed to the K2** trucks. Not a single one. She's been a perfect lady. 

 

I don't care how much money the Governor's has, his daughter is ugly and I'm not asking her to the dance. 

 

OH I sat in one. Lord that seat is crap. Did they get that from a kindergarten class room?

 

My seat doesn't squeak and it isn't loose. Don't get fresh with me young man. The gall of some people!

Yes, I would. Ideally I would love either a Denali 2500HD or F250 King Ranch but my wife says we don't "need" that big a truck, we compromised on a 1/2 ton. I'd really like the F150 King Ranch, I think overall Ford has done a fantastic job with their trucks, the ones I've had seem nicer and ride better. Even giving the edge to Ford for my tastes... I'm just a GM man at heart. Grew up with Suburbans and Tahoes. First truck was a Z71 Silverado and there's something that draws me to the "simple" classic feel. I wasn't a fan of the front end of this new '19/20 when it was first released but the looks of this truck have grown substantially to me. I really love how this truck looks.

 

What pushed me to get the Silverado was the 3.0L Duramax. I wanted something different this go around and it sucked me in. I've been extremely pleased with my truck and have zero buyer's remorse. The baby Duramax is fun, I've enjoyed having a diesel, and the fuel mileage just keeps me giddy. I'm 12,000 miles in with no problems outside the dealer clearing a few software updates/recalls. Good bit city driving, lots of highway driving, and about 20% towing 5800lb trailer. Getting this truck exactly how I wanted for $43.5K (Crew Cab, Z71 4X4, Tinted windows, Leather, front bench, 20" wheels, 3.0L Duramax, Safety package, sliding rear window, etc) vs the F150 King Ranch for $60K+, I just couldn't pass it up.

Did you miss the REBUY part? You know, as in buy again...

 

For someone who got pissy when others chimed in on his stupid gas oil mix thread, you’ve had no problem responding three times in a thread requesting opinions from owners of a truck you’ve never driven.

It’s why it’s so easy to paint this truck, or any truck in a given forum, as bad, or unreliable. Those without problems or a negative view are less likely to chime in. I try to take every group of reviews with a grain of salt. I mean, I researched and didn’t even drive another full size before trying and buying this one, haha. It’s possible that ignorance of the competition lets me enjoy it, but whateva, haha.

You would not believe how much better my Stihl equipment runs on my $5 'brew' over $38 Stihl fuel. Not even if you held it in your hand your own self. Says something about bias doesn't it?

Word twister eh? Didn't say a thing about it's reliability. Said it was too ugly to buy.

Hahaha, I apologize, I really wasn’t directing it at you specifically just many forum responses in general. So, no sir, you did not say that, not twisting anything.

And like said; the thread is would you "rebuy" and you can't rebuy if you don't have.  Correct???  The thread isn't would you "buy".  There's already a thread on that.  UGLY?   Pure opinion.   I think the T1 looks awesome.  Eventually, you'll get a new truck and may be eating your same words.  Funny when the T1 came out so many people and members here said they're ugly then came back and posted it's growing on them and got one.  Like through the years, many say a new body style is ugly and they're keeping what they have but end up getting a new one and then the older truck is now the ugly truck.  It is what it is.

No offense Grumpy but we have very different tastes when it comes to looks and being vocal about calling other trucks UGLY... :rolleyes:

Here I fixed that for you. Now you went and hurt her feelings. Poor girl. :crackup:Just haven't some fun kids. ? 

She does appreciate the re-post. 

Man she's pretty!!!

 

Yes, our taste is different. Some people actually liked the looks of an 59 Edsel Ranger.

Must have, a few still around. Will these 60 years from now?

Well first of all I hear and read just fine. Now about caring....not so much. But I do like to have some fun now and again. You know. Like when you dig me in one of my threads or replies. I took it. Now I dish it. 

 

I am almost certain at this point, given price, looks and features, my next truck will be just about anything before 1970.

My wife and I have a deal.  She doesn't tell me what I do or don't need in the garage and I don't tell her what she does or doesn't need in the kitchen.

I love the looks of the T1 trucks. I really feel they are an evolution of the 90s style c/k series trucks.  They are super aggressive looking in person and especially when one comes up in you in your rear view mirror.  Was driving wife’s terrain today and a white RST with rally stripes came up on me and WOW did it look sharp.  Looks are subjective to everyone. But seeing the car in person is SO MUCH BETTER. Pics don’t give it justice. 
 

Also the thread is for PEOPLE who actually OWN a T1 truck and if THEY would BUY/REBUY again. Pretty self explanatory 

 

and H€LL yes to buying this truck again. I’ve only owned mine 4 months and the driving experience is 100% better than the 3 K2 trucks I owned. I truly love driving this truck.

My mother totaled a car dad bought driving off the lot. Ownership time under 3 minutes. I test drove a T1 and on that drive concluded with a I own was not giving away a thing. Test drive was over three minutes. Would signing a title have made my opinion less valid? I think not. If I didn't buy it the first time I sure wouldn't a second. Done and Dun.

    • It wouldn’t have happened if the government hadn’t mandated outrageous fuel mileage standards. It does very little for the consumer. It adds cost. Back during Covid there was a chip shortage. They gave a rebate for your truck if it didn’t have the chip to turn on cylinder deactivation. It was 50$ because at best you may see 1/2 a mile increase per gallon. Splitting hairs each fuel mileage trick wasn’t mandated. The government doesn’t do the engineering work and say use this until it’s already in use and they like it. The fuel mileage was mandated. And those add ons the results. There’s a mandate and they are the results.
    • It was never mandated.  Ever.    Automakers were incentivized to install it by getting CAFE credits to help with their vehicle fleet fuel economy scores.  They were being handed money/CAFE credits to install it.  Which is NOT a mandate.       The current admin removed the incentives that were behind them installing it.       
    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
