FYI... I have GM WiFi, I have the MyChevy app, MyGMC app and MyCadillac app. What I don't have is the 2018 radio interface. If it's possible to get it on my 2016 that's what I want to buy. I know all the differences and what each interface can do. If anyone has done this or know of a company please let me know.

Thanks

The 2018 interface is really no different than the 2016, or 2017.
Indeed, it's different than the prior years.
Which model unit do you have? IO5 or IO6?

I06 and my screen looks nothing like that. That's what I want.

Round icons started in 2019 and later, prior, they've all been square.
Post a pic, please.

The 2016 had round icons and when you touched them there was a red dot that lit up at the top. I believe they went with the square icons in 2017 or 2018. They went back to the circle icons with the totally new system in 2019 that added user profiles. I wish I could add a picture but it says my file is to large

A friend of mine has a 2016 Sierra, maxed out with Z71 suspension and all that.
I'll have to check on him tomorrow.

Your truck has a mod before you bought it.
However, I could be wrong and I am - not afraid to admit it, though it does go beyond my prior research. Sorry.

Maybe but I don't think so. I've seen my style circle icons on a few 2016's. The new 2019 circle icons look totally different. If you find something out please let me know.

Thanks

Ah, now I see what you are mentioning.
Kinda old-school by the standards of the square icons and even the new round ones on the home page.
To be fair, I rarely use the native screen, I'm always on Apple Car Play, except when I want to use my cameras - both outside mirrors, front cam and bed cam.

I apologize for my confusion.

    • 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.                  
    • drive the truck back to the dealer and complain that the button works.

    • I have a 2026 2500 HD Ultimate. My phone app says there’s a software update available. It’s something about improved battery management and something to do with the running boards. I follow the instructions for the update but the “Check for Updates” option is greyed out in my settings menu. Has anyone else seen this? How did you resolve it? The help message just says “see your dealer” if the download doesn’t work. I’m just trying to save a trip. 
    • Fuel mileage?  That's all how you use your right foot.  Exhaust will give you sound.   Stock exhaust 5.3 is 2.75" diameter piping.     If the truck is nice and worth putting some $$ into it, I'd go for a Corsa catback.  I had one on my 2019 old body 5.3 and it was just perfect.  Zero drone, just driving around and cruising on the highway you'd think it was stock, but when you opened it up it was like a Camaro with the factory dual mode.  Corsa bumps their catback to 3in diameter.
