Folks.. I am shopping for a new 2022 Refresh Locally and found a Dealer who has the Same Interior and exterior color LTZ LTD and LTZ Refresh... They Both have the same Stock Manufacture Photos so I opened Both but in different tabs... Then I made sure both Pics were the same View Point and I quickly Toggled back and Forth to see the Differences... Man, You can really see how much they changed on the Interior... I thought I would share and Hopefully its Useful... Here are the Links... LMK What you think..

Yepp. They spent 90% of the refresh on the interior.  Which needed it badly.  Little disappointed to see they didn’t even touch the taillights.  But I get it guess.  Still a huge improvement.

Got rid of the "sideburns" which will please a lot of people. Probably one of the most polarizing features on the T1.

New interior doesn't look like it was made from Lego blocks. That's better. Smoother more continuous look. I like the dash. Rest of the truck....yea.....not so much.

What if it had the almighty 4.3 ? Then maybe would you consider it ?

When you look at what you get in a Hyundai or Kia today at 40-45k msrp.. The new Kia Sorento is a damn good looking ride inside and out imo. You would think at a average price of 50-55k you would get a bit more then what gm offers in it's truck line, even the redesign falls a bit short for what the cost of these trucks are today imo.

That interior looks horrible. 
 

I wonder how good it will pull my dump trailer.

 

Apples to oranges comparison.

I had the chance to buy a KIA Sorento, Telluride, and Hyundai Pallisade, but choose to go with a Traverse Redline Edition. Yes, the interiors are nice, IDK if that much nicer than the Traverse. I love how I can hide things behind my 8 inch touch screen on my traverse where the others had just a tablet slammed right in-front of your face. The new Explorer is the worst. The huge tablet just sits there hanging right in front of you. No thanks, I like an inlayed screen that flows with the vehicle.

 

I think these Traverse's are nice looking especially in redline edition. Rides amazing, has very good power (wish they would drop in a 5.3L for more power in an SS model),  and gets 25-27 mpgs depending on how aggressive "we" drive it!

I think the new re-fresh is a home run, both exterior and interior wise. They both look amazing! Only if GM would have spent a little time upgrading the V8 engines!!!! Then one would probably be in my driveway! 

 

Thanks @Mcarlo24 for the pictures and comparing the two. Appreciate it!

A 20 or so bump in horsepower and torque would be nice. Especially on the 5.3L. Also, making the 10L90 standard across the board would be a welcomed change.

Considering the 2.7 turbo makes more torque than the 5.3, I’d say a power upgrade would be a good start.

 

Oh and idk maybe redesign that pesky lifter system that has been causing issues for years.

 

You know, just a few little things.

5.3 makes 383 lb ft of torque and the 2.7 is 348 lb ft of torque so try again on that one.  Plus, would you really give up a NA v8 making those numbers just to drive a boosted 4 banger?  4 bangers are trash and always will be, sad it needs boost to make only decent numbers.

You’re wrong.

It has 430 lb ft as of the 2022 refresh trucks.

    • Yep! This should be a pin somewhere as @pgamboa really dives into all of this. Thanks for reposting the link!
    • I did the new thermostat after doing a 'flip' for a year. Runs as cool one way as the other in the summer but in the winter there is a bit of a floor. Yellow with the new 70 C thermostat. My data over the life of the unit to date. Still need more cooler. Anyway that floor helped both winter fuel economy and shift quality in the winter. I found it a good balance.       
    • Evan Williams Bottled in Bond   So pouring the last of a bottle of Evan Williams Black label last night I set off the the state store for a refill only to be denied the by an empty shelf. Rats.    What the did have was a bottle of Evan Williams Bottled in Bond. 100 proof. Hum, a few bucks more but a known distiller. Lets have a swing at it. ( I have before )    Cracked it open and pour a serving over ice. Hum.... more heat, yes. More alcohol naturally. But the barreling not the proof brings the taste and this one came up short.    Oh is was familiar but the heat ran the barrel over like a Peterbilt runs over a squirrel. Could use a heavier toasting of the oak me thinks or perhaps a longer barreling. Who knows. But what I can say is ice or a water back isn't the answer. What kills one kills them both. Sad. It is a pleasant drink....if you have little to compare it to.  
    • I've had exactly one set of Bridgestone. Lasted five year and 125,000 miles and had I known better 15oK would have been a cake walk. I would have bought a like set had they not tripled in price since the first set. I removed them at said mileage with 5/32" remaining in dead even wear all four. They were fuel efficient, quite, comfortable and predictable.    Early on I got a very good alignment checked at least once a year, sometimes twice; kept the tires properly inflated, balanced and rotated. And I've found that many a tire issue can be avoided with great maintenance practices. Lot's of tire dealers will do rotation and balance (simple) for free for as long as you own the tire they sold you so no excuse not to.    Bead prep, alloy integrity and stem health have a huge impact on inflation stability. There are more mountings done poorly that perfectly. Finding a good tire guy is gold and as important as finding a tire you like.    That 3X price increase now two sets of "other tires' later is starting look like a bargain.      Bad maintenance kills more tires than bad tires. 
    • Atlas, you kill me As aggravating as a project like this can be you have been unable to hide your fascination with learning and using that angst against this beast like a Ninjitsu Master. It amuses you, admit it now.      BTW, love your writing style. 😉
