Denali Ultimate - 3.0 Babymax

Had it about 2 weeks now. The shipping time was so painfully long. Love it so far though and the mileage is awesome.

Awesome!  I didn't know you could get the baby D Max without the towing mirrors, good to know!

My '22 LTZ refresh came in this week and I couldn't be happier.  The new interior is terrific.  Glad Silverado went back to the projector headlights.

The tow mirrors are a pretty rare option on the 1/2 tons, 3.0 or not. The vast majority of 3.0 trucks do not have the tow mirrors. The 3.0 isn't a tow engine like the 6.6. It is built for fuel economy. Most 3.0 trucks only have a 8,500-9,000# towing capacity.

Found a refreshed HC about 4 hours from home on a dealers lot and had it purchased and back home within 24 hours. Not easy to find, this one is pretty much loaded. Didn’t really want white but it’s growing on me!0A5D1477-6724-4D46-8219-AA0C08EDB2E6.thumb.jpeg.d583eb88e474cd2d97ec0248829a7b71.jpeg

Sharp looking truck. 

 

I've noticed that there are not a lot of them on the road in my travels. 

 

The only thing I don't like on the HC refresh is the wheels. I like the pre-refresh HC wheels a lot better.

I wasn’t a fan at first, but they are growing on me. My wife really wanted a Tahoe, I wanted a truck - this was the compromise as the interior is the same and so were the rims, lol. Will most likely put some 20s on for the winter.

Those are standard features on the HC refresh trucks.

Nice looking truck, I bet you paid a pretty penny for that thing with all the options, sitting on a lot available. I wish I had ordered a white one, although Dark Ash is growing on me.

 

I dislike the wheels as well, both the premium 22s you have and standard 20s I have. The 20s on mine are nice wheels but they don’t really match the high country and I wasn’t about to pay a premium for the 22s that I didn’t like. I’ll change them out eventually, keeping my eye out for a used set of pre refresh HC wheels.

I like your wheels better than the 20's on my refresh LTZ. The refresh LTZ's got a painted silver wheel instead of the polished wheels the pre-refreshed LTZ's got. I'm trying to find a set of the pre-refresh LTZ wheels for mine, but refuse to pay $1200-1500 for wheels alone (and I don't need tires with 4,052 miles). However, if I can find a set with tires for less than $750 I'll have them and have a set of winter wheels/tires.

That’s a great color though! I like the previous years 22s as well. Though most dealer’s were only giving the preferred vendor discount (same as employee pricing I was told), I gave it a try and send I wasn’t paying sticker but I think we could make it work with the discount (over $7k). Got excellent trade in value as well so that helped but it still wasn’t cheap of course. They are nice trucks though and drive incredibly smooth.

22 Sierra AT4X in Onyx Black, shoed in 295/70R18s on the stock wheels; otherwise, the vehicle is straight from the factory.

Looks good! Any rubbing with the 295/70r18s? Full lock ok? Looks really close to the back of the front wheel well.

6sigma, I have not had any rubbing at full lock or on any rolling turns (incline or otherwise), nor have I run into any issues with the UCA. I have attached some additional photos of the front tire, so you can see the clearance a bit more clearly. Hope these are helpful.

FJB,

 

Believe it or not, they aren't that bad. They are a bit louder than the stock Goodyear mud tires, but not significantly so. With the window down, the drone of the tire is louder; however, with the windows up at highway speed: it's really not bad. The truck is pretty well insulted. I've had mud tires in the past, on other vehicles, that are so loud you can't hear yourself think, but that probably had more to do with the lack of noise insulation between the tires and my ears. As for the effect on steering control and acceleration, you can feel the lugs of the tires upon initial acceleration and when the truck is slowing to a stop through the steering wheel, but it appears to affect neither the control of the vehicle nor the acceleration to any significant degree.

      Replacing 2.7L on 2021 Silverado with 2023 2.7L

      OCI, not when but why?

      By KARNUT · Posted

      But Grumpy I did show several subdivisions that had homes starting in the 170K range. If you bought a Townhouse or Condo you could go cheaper. Same with a car 3000 dollars in the 70s translates to around 20K today. There are several models at that price. You actually get more for the money. In the 70s I drove a 3000$ car bought a 28K home and made 4.50 per hour. Thank goodness for overtime. Today I could buy a 170K house drive a 20K car and make 25 dollars an hour operating the same machine today. The difference the house, car, machine would be better and have AC. And I wouldn’t be taxed on overtime. And statistically your wife works too. Easing the burden. I thought we agreed to disagree. I brought receipts earlier, showing examples. I think you’re more stubborn than me. I was done with this debate.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.
