Weathertech floor liners front and back and a console tray were the first two things I bought. 

Since I have added a Undercover Flex tonneau for the back.  Then I bouhgt and cut a 2X8 piece of lumber correctly to use as a load blocker in the bed slots.  My GMC is an SLT so it came with most everything else I usually buy.  So far no problems.

Day 1?  I had over $5k in stuff sitting in my garage a week before I got my truck.  Only 1 item was installed in the truck by the dealer before I took possession -- Thinkware F800 front and rear cameras.

 

The following were in my garage before the truck arrived:

 

• GM Sportbar

• GM offroad steps

• GM Performance intake

• GM Performance exhaust

• GM rear wheel well liners

• GM Accessories illuminated front bowtie

• Black vinyl letters for tailgate

• Black SILVERADO and LT badges for tailgate

• WeatherTech window visors

• WeatherTech license plate soft bumper frame (use it on front plate, adds to rugged appearance of Trail Boss while also providing a little bit of protection)

• WeatherTech clear license plate cover (helps prevent rear plate from being stolen.  I might swap this to the tinted version now that I'm thinking about it)

• Tablet/Cell phone holders from Amazon that tension mount to front seat headrest posts so rear seat occupants (aka, kids) can use their devices on long trips

• Rough Country hard trifold tonneau

• Chrome locking hitch pin

• University of Utah trailer hitch cover

 

All of this stuff was installed within a week.

Nobody buys side steps? My new 2012 F-150 had it and I could not live without it.. had it added on the 2016 F-150 XLT, then again on the 2019 Silverado RST, then again on the Cheyenne RST.

Ours came from the factory with them and they definitely are needed.

#2 on my list of things that was in the garage a week before the truck arrived.  Been very beneficial with kids and a short wife.  Very detrimental for offroading.

I don't like the look of side steps. And at 5FT 8IN, I don't have any problem getting into my truck even with a small lift.

I did/still am contemplating the high clearance off-road steps that come on the new AT4/Trail Boss. I like the look of them and how low profile they are.

    • Yeah I don’t leave ANYTHING just sitting supposedly maintaining my battery on a vehicle or RV for multiday periods. I connect a charger as needed to provide a full charge, then disconnect it and either monitor the battery or follow a set schedule for periodic charging. 
    • Get the 5.3. I`m not a Ford guy.😉   I think these L84`s are less problematic than the L83`s. Certainly less than the L87.
    • I have finally paid off my mortgage and can now purchase a new truck. I would greatly appreciate any opinions on the purchase of a new 2026 GMC Denali 5.3L or 6.2L with the Denali reserve package. I am not interested in the 3.0L.  Or should I go buy a Ford?   Thank, John
    • One of the few things I enjoyed about my time in the midwest was taking off on weekend drives. Unlike home, where we are boxed in by mountains and water, those rules don't apply to the inland plains. Roads connect and sprawl everywhere. While Minnesota is flat, it's not completely featureless and there are fast moving rural roads with curves and slight elevation changes. I used to relish heading out in a particular direction with no set destination, no curfew, and weaving through little townships, wherever the roads would take me. Along farms, lakes, or through the deciduous trees... It was beautiful in its own way, and the seasons were so distinct there. Fall drives yielded amazing shows of color and contrast. Summer drives rewarded with the and amber evening glow of the prairie (and lots of juicy bugs).    I do a lot of that here in my home state too. But it's much less mysterious/intriguing. I've traveled most roads in the region, and every road that's fun to drive within a good radius of my house. But every drive, even on the same old roads, is still enjoyable. I know where I can lean hard into the throttle or really throw the car into a curve. There are exercise loops for when I just need to keep certain cars limber, and much longer routes to settle in and enjoy a drive and put some miles on. All the mountains and water make for some really awesome roads for spirited driving. But not all my driving is spirited, for example, that's not really enjoyable in my pickup or this Blazer (that's still here...).   Sometimes a good drive is followed by a ritualistic wash before tucking the car away...
    • 'GMAuthority' is reporting the 2027 HD's will have the L8S 6.6L gasoline V-8.  There was some talk here about the L8S awhile back.  Not sure what changes it will have now as it seems the 2027 emissions regulations have changed from what was originally proposed.  The big question will be is L8S just a stopgap for the last 2 years of the current T1 HD platform or will it carry forward to the next generation 2029 T1-2 HD's?    I assume the L8S will still be a Gen. V engine.
