Just got a new (to me) 2019 Chev. Silverado 2500. While going over everything I noticed that the front grill has an opening that seems to expose the radiator to debris. Does anyone know of anything that would work to close it off from the debris and yet will all that extra airflow.

A picture of what you're talking about might help.

Is it a dmax?

Are you talking about the hole at the bottom where the oil cooler is located on the dmax?

GM has been making the 25/3500 diesels that way going back at least to the '90's.

Lots of threads by folks that are similarly concerned about it, but damage reports are rare.

Probably no more common than radiator damage reports.

For those that want them, there are lots of aftermarket suppliers of covers/dress-up panels.

  I have a 36' bumper 9k FR and unless it's super windy, the only way you know its there is when rolling out from a stop.
- 2021 Silverado cap wiring
  
  By VE4ADB · Posted 38 minutes ago
  
  Hey all i recently got a A.R.E dcu contractor cap for the truck. The wiring for the 3rd brake light canopy side is 2 wires. simple. however.... finding how to actually wire it to the truck is a nightmare. I have searched but didn't find the answer. My truck is a 2021 Silverado CUSTOM 5.3 dbl cab 6'7 box. being the custom i have LED tails but none of that fancy extra cameras. i read there's a diode that can be installed but the instructions state NOT FOR LED TAILLIGHTS, i obviously want the 3rd brake to work as a 3rd brake only. The cops up here in Canada will stop you for any and everything so id like to get it working. Is the only way to get it to work actually by tapping into the trucks 3rd brake light line its self? there's got to be another way. If there's not would "omitting" the wire to the truck 3rd brake light and extending it to the cap cause any issues or truck freak outs? So the factory light no longer lights up between the cap and the box?
- 2027 Silverado and Sierra "coming soon" Gain a Visualizer Feature
  
  By newdude · Posted 1 hour ago
  
  For those interested, the Silverado and Sierra websites gained some new details to them. Biggest one being a visualizer of each truck and all trims and colors, on their respective sites. Still no power announcements. New 2027 Silverado | Pickup Truck | Chevrolet 2027 Next Generation Sierra 1500 | Future Vehicles | GMC Colors that stand out/I question. These could change closer to production as well, so my opinion based on the current state of the visualizer. Chevy - Trillium Green. Love it. Its trim locked to Custom Trail Boss, Trail Boss, ZR2 and High Country. Pacific Blue. Nice. But High Country only at the moment. Red. Only one red is shown, Apex Red (which is a nice color and is on the Trax and Trailblazer right now). GMC - Two reds. Cardinal (Red Hot) and Mesa (Apex). No green. WTF. Again. Its possible these may change some as production nears, and when the order guide launches.

  I wonder what I'm doing wrong whenever I hear people say they "don't even feel it back there" when towing 10k+ lbs. I could even feel my old 3,500lb travel trailer. Oh well.
