So some people are too lazy to press either one of the front door buttons to unlock all the doors....?

It so happens I am so lazy I would not consider a car with manual windows either. I am also so lazy I would not consider a car with manual locking front hubs either.

At least your honest with yourself. Is it hard to get off the couch or do you have someone get your food and beer for you??

I don't even drink beer and nobody makes food the way I like it.

 

It seems I use the back seat a lot more than others, I'd say about 4 out of 5 last trips I made, I used the rear seat as a trunk so I use it a lot more than others. The button is a much nicer feature for me compared to others, obviously. If some want to confuse convenience with laziness, so be it.

I see. I agree with the rear doors having buttons. My 2019 high country has them and I love it. But I can see how it’s really not that important to most people. Use the key fob and hit unlock on it  once (if settings are changed) or twice and all doors unlock. Pretty simple!

I don't unlock my car from a distance in bad areas when I'm holding bags of groceries. Same reason why I live in a gated community.

Better find a new place to live then!  Thank goodness I live in the good old plain states where hospitality is a priority. 
I remember when I moved to Las Vegas. Unreal how different life was there. No one waved at you when you drove by them. Everyone stared at you like an alien instead of saying friendly hello. So glad I’m back here where common courtesy is expected. I feel better with my kids in school and walking home as well. Never in Vegas would I have.

That's the Vegas we know and love! Perhaps you should have opted for Henderson instead. I lived there a while ago, way, way, way nicer than Vegas! Could not stand the dry air so I moved back to Orange County.

$55k for a 20 6.2 RST doesn't seem ridiculous depending on how it's optioned up.  My 21 6.2 RST stickered for $63....and I love it compared to my 16 All Terrain, even with less options!  I bought mine last month from the Boucher auto group in the Milwaukee, WI area and they had like $3500 dealer cash on all of the 21's and they day I bought mine they pulled that dealer cash from all of their 6.2's.

So you paid almost $60k for an RST? ???  I paid $60k for my High Country which has everything but a kitchen sink in it!  I still think $55k for an RST is outrageous. They should be $45k to $48k decked out. They don’t even have same features as an LTZ. 
In all honesty these trucks are getting way over priced. But as long as YOU like it and you can afford it. I’m not going to tell you how to spend your money ?. ?

Wow, I have to agree here, the 2019 RST we have has a base price of $44,500 with $8,660 worth of options, total $53,160, and it was bought for $42,000. Not bad for a first year model. For $60k, I'd have gone for the LTZ.

I didn’t pay that for it but that is what the sticker was, it was just under $54 OTD. 6.2, $3k wheels, “performance package,” hard cover, side steps, convenience(Bose with sub)/safety package, bed liner, leather... that all adds up fast to $16k in options.   I don’t feel like I overpaid a dime, it’s all the stuff I wanted with one exception, memory seats. Yeah, some of the new options are cool, but I got real with myself and what I liked and wanted, last truck was SLT and came from 2 fully loaded Denalis before that.  They had a pretty loaded up 6.2 LTZ that was within $800 of the sticker price of mine. I didn’t want chrome.  $60k sounds about where you could get a 6.2 high country around Milwaukee/Chicago in January when I was looking saw a couple 5.3 and duramax in the $54 range Those are cool looking trucks, especially the cherry red tintcoat.  Looked at a 6.2 TB that color?

That's interesting.. you don't have "Silverado" on the bottom left. Mine has "Cheyenne" on the bottom left along with "RST" on the right.

    • I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.
    • I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments
    • Looks like the entire state is burning. 😬
    • Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
