Hey folks:

 

Just traded in my '11 LTZ Z71 and am now the happy owner of a new 2021 AT4 here - pic below! 

 

I can't seem to figure out how to get my mirrors to tilt down when I throw the truck in reverse... this was probably one of my favourite features on my old truck.  I searched this forum and others and can't seem to find ANYTHING on this - did GM delete this functionality or am I just missing a setting somewhere?

 

Thanks in advance!

2021 1500 Sierra Owners Manual:

 

 

Reverse Tilt Mirrors

 

If equipped with reverse tilt mirrors and memory seats, the passenger and/or driver
mirror tilts to a preselected position when the vehicle is in R (Reverse). This allows the
curb to be seen when parallel parking.

 

The mirror(s) may move from their tilted position when:
. The vehicle is shifted out of R (Reverse), or remains in R (Reverse) for about 30 seconds.
. The vehicle is turned off.
. The vehicle is driven in R (Reverse) above a set speed.
To turn this feature on or off, see Vehicle
Personalization pg 130. 

 

Reverse Tilt Mirror
When on, the driver, passenger, or both driver and passenger outside mirrors will tilt
 downward when the vehicle is shifted into R (Reverse) to improve visibility of the
ground near the rear wheels. They may move from their tilted position when the vehicle is shifted out of R (Reverse) or
turned off.

See Reverse Tilt Mirrors pg 38.
Touch Off, On - Driver and Passenger, On -
Driver, or On - Passenger.

You have to enable it in the settings menu first. Very useful feature. I just haven’t been able to reposition and save the new position like on my 2015 Denali.

    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
