I haven't been on the forum in a while. My 19 lease is up and I'm in the process of ordering a 2022 or 2023... Where do we talk about those trucks? Is this forum dead?

We just talk about them here in the 19-21 section since they are mostly the same truck, built on the Same platform.

 

Forums not dead, It’s just apparently too hard for the site admins to update the forum names and descriptions.

It is just a refresh, they don't need to make a new section, that is only for redesigns where everything is different including wiring, suspension, structure, etc. The 22+ shares many of the same things with the 19+ outside of some design items.

Don't the refresh trucks use a different electrical control architecture?

If so, that would seem like a classic reason to add a new section.

redwngr is correct.  2022 "refresh" trucks have the same cabs and box metal.  The front clips are all new (grille, bumpers and headlights).  New dashes on LT and higher trims.

 

The biggest change?  Electrical architecture.  2022 refresh and forward are on GM VIP electrical platform, aka Global B.  Lots of new under the skin changes, new communications protocols, new modules, etc.  They are programmed differently than before somewhat, nothing tuning wise from 19-22 that has been made will not work, etc.

Thanks guys, I know that it's just a refresh and didn't mean to imply that we needed a new sub. I was just thrown off when I logged in and saw that it ended at 2021. Seems like a quick fix that hopefully the mods can make :)

I agree and second the need for a new category for the 2022+, the looks may be somewhat similar but they are different. I've tried helping a buddy with his 22+ and the first thing we noticed was the BCM is completely different. Wake up Admins and recognize the difference, searching and posting for the "refresh" model is darn cumbersome.

Is this site dying? We're getting into the 2023 model year now and the subs still aren't updated. What's up? I know it's a minor knit, but seems like such an easy fix.

    • Thanks, so being a different beast altogether, anyone know what the "optimal" temp is for the 10L80/90 for proper shifting?
    • How many years have I pointed out every point in that link to the folks here and been avalanched with criticisms and outright hostilities at times? I ran counter to even the great CUSTOMBOSS and Lake Speed Jr and the half dozen experts on YouTube and in the final.....GM, Physics (Stribeck) backs that Grumpy old Bear.    Honestly, I never said a thing engineering hadn't studied silly and laid in concrete during WWII. But I'm old, the information is old and yet, the Laws of Physics are eternal.    Okay there is one exception. I vehemently disagree with their use of the word 'tolerances' when what it meant is "clearance".   The clearance is the distance between two objects. The tolerance is the degree of acceptable variation permitted in that clearance. I.E., piston to bore clearance is 0.004" with a tolerance of +/- .0002" so the clearance is in specification if it lies between 0.0038" and 0.0042". Cutting that 'tolerance in half has ZERO impact on lubrication requirements. Makes for more difficulty in manufacturing.  But a tighter clearance 'MAY'. Depends on finish. Anyway....   It's one of those statements made by people to make themselves look smarter than they are to convince people who are as un-enlighten as they seem to manipulate their behaviors. But hey, the blind leading the blind puts them both in the pit. 
    • Out and about yesterday on a long Saturday drive I passed a lot of Shell stations. My preferred, so I pay attention. Lot's of small town Illinois so not six stations in three blocks like the city.    Everyone of them over a radius of say 100 miles had regular at $4.19 but one which was the one closest to home at $4.15. However Premium pricing varied greatly between 85 cents over regular to $1.50 over. I'm not counting the price of the station with the lowest regular so the reference is the same for the remainder and all within the same brand. However the spread discrepancy holds across all brands.     @txab, any thoughts on that? 
    • What are your thoughts? The Chevy Blazer relaunch was an epic case of 'lunchbag letdown'. Jeep Wranglers and Ford Broncos stick out like a sore thumb.    The AI photos do not look like a 'retro version', but shrunken Tahoes. Get away from the 'futuristic look'. I've seen two concepts. One had rectangular headlight like a Rivian and the other way too big headlights (similar to a previous non-Wrangler SUV) should include dual round headlights like the early version.   If not this would look OK   At least it has GM styling (albeit the K2XX) A lot of the images floating around look like Bronco IIs or the current Bronco. Looking at the Broncos in my area (central Ontario, it seems to be a mix of 2 doors and 4 doors, 'mall rated' to ones that could go offroad.    I'm sure a AT4 and AT4X RPOs could be outfitted similar to a Rubicon if the braintrust understood the whole offroad scene. Crossing my fingers that if it does see the light that the front air dam/bumper doesn't extend below the center line of the tire...
