Flyingtiger intro.

[Flyingtiger]

Hey everyone! Just took advantage of 0% for 60mos. and got myself a new 2500HD classic CC dressed in black. I thought I'd introduce myself before I started firing out the questions. My first question's about the "auto armor" they try and sell you at the stealership. I'm usually not one for gimmicks, but because this thing will be outdoors for the majority of it's days, I wanted to see if anyone has had any experieces (good or bad) with this stuff. I'm obviously still gonna wax, but because they just upped the warranty to 7 years, I figured there may be something to this stuff. Anyways, thanks for the help forthcoming. Any other newbie tips or links would be appreciated. Thanks!

Congrats on the new ride, and welcome to the boards!

 

And there's NO way I'd let the dealership put anything like that on my truck. It's crap. If it were needed, it would have been put on at the factory and/or advised about in your manual. That's just my opinion of course, but it seems to be the consensus around here as well.

Welcome to the site!

 

I never buy any add-ons from the dealership, and if they are already applied I refuse to pay for them!

Welcome.

Fill out your sig with truck info. That's nice to have when questions are posted and will save you answering things like "what engine".

 

You'll want to get your PCM tuned. It's a real wake up call for the powertrain.

 

Other sites I like are FullsizeChevy.com and PerformanceTrucks.net. If you have a diesel there's some good sites for those also.

Thanks for the welcome, and the insight. I'll look into that PCM tune. I'm most likely going with a lift and wheels first. Feel free to chime in with any suggestions there. I'm definately looking to maintain a near factory ride. Thanks guys.
