Finally Got One

[lonecountryboy]

So finally got my 2021 Silverado 3.0 crew cab in Oxford Brown. Has a 6" procomp lift and Amp Research steps. Running hostile alpha wheels 20x9 with 0 offset, tires are Atturo Blades AT 35x12.5x20.

So the good: Rides great, cut my fuel bill in half, looks awesome and has plenty of power even running the bigger tires. Once I get more drive time I plan on writing a more comprehensive review. 

The Bad: At 200 miles had to have it towed to the dealer for an auxiliary coolant pump failure. No big deal they repaired it and its been good ever since, have about 1500 miles on it now. 

So the question I have for other 3.0 owners, what is your oil pressure on startup and cruise? Mine never gets above 30 on the gauge no matter if its cold or warm, is this normal?

Thanks in advance.

Normal for LM2 oil pressure.

 

Coolant likely moves around a little, often but not always, a tick or two above 210 on the gauge. 

 

Nice looking truck!

Congratulations on your new Great looking truck!

 

Also impressed that you remember your Drivers Education Classes and have your wheels turned the correct direction facing downhill

good to know that is normal. I have to admit this truck is pretty impressive. The more I drive it the bigger the smile I have.

Good looking truck and has a nice stance with the lift. Also good to see and truck WITHOUT black rims.
