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.

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.

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
