I ordered mine about 13 months ago, and I'm really glad I waited for it.  4th door was made standard.  My dealer said I might as well wait to order a 2001 and get "all the new electronics".  Whether I got anything new, I'm not sure.  I think he was just trying to sell me a newer truck.  But I'm glad I ordered it.  Gave me more time to save some more money and add a couple items like the sportside bed and buskets.

I've not read that there are any extra ordinary changes for 2002.

GM's history suggests that they will stay with a winner for a while. I think they're please with design and performance. I heard somewhere that they may play with the 5.3. Any one heard about that?

My father is thinking about trading his 01 2wd Silverado for a Z71, wishes he had boughten one instead, and the dealer told him, that a new color is coming, I think a orangeish color? Not sure, and 315hp and 360ft/lbs of torque for the 6.0.  I do know that one of the years, amber DRL's will replace the clear ones.  Not sure if it's 02 though.

I sure hope that the color deletions aren't correct, because the Sunset Orange and Sunset Gold are the only two colors my Dad would get since they don't have a light blue anymore.  I really think the Sunset Orange is GM's best looking color, and it would be a mistake not to offer it.

The Trailblazer does look sharp, especially in LTZ trim.  But for the price of that, you could get one #### of a loaded Silverado/Sierra x-cab Z71 and have change for aftermarket goodies.

As for the new for '02, are the 1500HD's considered '01s or '02s??  I know they're only available as crew cab shortboxes with the 6.0L, but that might be all I really need.

Only other '02 change for the fullsizes that hasn't been mentioned is the addition of the Sierra C3 and the Avalanche.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I’m doing an experiment on a vehicle I don’t have much money in. I’m going by the premise that after they last 100K miles they were no mechanical problems with assembly. Or defects with the parts. With oil changes by the minder for the first 127K miles when I acquired it. I quickly went through low mileage oil changes then settled on 5k oil changes with close to 170K miles on the vehicle currently. I did have the option to turn off the cylinder deactivation. I didn’t on this vehicle because in ECONOMY mode at least half the time. It should be a no brainer frequent oil changes are the key. The manufacturer gets away with the long oil changes with its severe service  maintenance. Just ask them what is normal.

      Hot air constantly blowing through floor vents, drivers side only?

      By baglie1 · Posted

      Even set to "recirculated", the air pushes out and is hot. I have noticed that sometime it doesn't want to switch between recirculated/vented air. Say it is set to Circulated Air and I want to switch to Vented, when I click the Vented button, it just quickly lights up/clicks and immediatly switches back to Circulated. It's done this a few times now. So maybe it is an actuator getting stuck? But then, that doesn't explain the hot air when everything is off does it?

      I wonder what the price is out at the coast, Big Sur or other out of the way locations as I bet they are charging quite a premium over the in land pumps.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Were you looking at the HD trucks on the GM website or the half tons as that makes all the difference. As far as I know there are only two options for the HD trucks and that is the standard 2 speed transfer case or the 2 speed transfer case that has the added 4 high auto feature and they put that transfer case by default into the LTZ and High Country although its optional in the LT and not sure if its available in the work trucks.    The half tons, that is where its been a total mess in my estimation for a few years now with most trucks below the top trim having the single speed transfer case as standard but with the option of having the two speed such as one would get by choosing the Z71 package, however then not being able to get the two speed transfer case with the towing package unless it was a higher trim truck AND had the 6.2 gas so one could combine the towing package gearing diffs with the two speed transfer case. Having said that if its a trail boss package then it gets the two speed transfer case but not necessarily able to get the tow package as it would depend on trim level and engine chosen. Believe me, people have bought the GM half tons assuming "of course it will have a two speed transfer case" only to find out after when they really pay attention to what they now own .... crap, there is NO low range !.    I don't believe Ford or Ram have gone that way yet with their half tons but like I say its been a few years now that GM has done this with the half tons.
