Hey do any of you guys with white trucks notice what appear to be like little rust spots on your truck sometimes? I noticed one the other day and upon further inspection, THEY'RE EVERYWHERE. I tried washing the truck really good with my usual car soap/water. I tried a quick wash with dish detergent because I wanted to strip the old wax anyway. I even tried a little rub with some gas and then a rinse with water and they didn't go away. I'm curious as to how they got there to begin with. My only thought was that some time during the summer I got some kind of liquid fertilizer on my truck when the fields get sprayed. Any thoughts?

Does this qualify? Since mine is Summit White and Pewter, I guess I've got a bastard child. :loser::D

 

Sadly, my 2010 won't be white. I ordered it in Storm Gray Metallic. I seriously thought about going with white again, but since there's no longer a 2 tone, I went with the gray. I would like it if they had a 2-tone of white on top and maybe a gray or light silver on the bottom. Kind of similar to my '02.

 

Not to worry, though. I'm keeping the hybrid '02.

Do you live near, or work at, a power generation facility? Preferably a coal burner. I've seen what they do to white paint. Well....any paint, but it affects white more for whatever reason.

 

It could be acid rain.

      I love my truck but

      Not exactly what I was hoping for, but I do like it. I wonder if they'll bring back Smokey Quartz Metallic? 🤔 https://gmauthority.com/blog/2026/06/here-is-the-all-new-2027-gmc-sierra-1500/

      Whoever greenlighted the work truck matte black front bumpers on every trim but the AT4X should be fired!  I was hoping that was an AI mistake, but just realized they were on every model of the 2027 Silverado too.     Some parts of the interior do look premium, but the Denali Ultimate dashboard looks like an afterthought.  At least they appear to have lost the microfiber the high end Silverado models showed, but the '27 High Country dash looks better than the Denali.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      New member here. I am researching a read-first event-recorder concept for late-model GM V8 trucks. This is not a sales post. There is no product link, price, preorder, or mailing list. I am trying to determine whether the underlying problem is real before building anything.   Has your truck ever had a brief problem such as: - rough running or a momentary misfire - an oil-pressure warning or unusual pressure event - reduced power or a brief stall - a U-code or lost-communication problem - a symptom that disappeared before the dealer or independent shop could reproduce it   If so, I would appreciate the following details: - year, model, engine, and mileage - what happened and under what conditions - whether a DTC and useful freeze-frame data were stored - whether the shop was able to reproduce it - what the eventual confirmed repair was, if known - what additional information would have helped the diagnosis   The concept being evaluated is a removable leave-in recorder that continuously retains a rolling window from before and after an event. It would not tune, reflash, clear codes, or change the vehicle calibration.   I am also not claiming that it could predict lifter failure or see every internal ECM variable.   The real question is whether continuous event history would add enough useful evidence beyond freeze frame, GDS2, and existing scan tools — or whether it would simply be another unnecessary gadget.   For owners and technicians, which problem would make something like this genuinely useful: 1. intermittent misfire or AFM/DFM-related behavior 2. oil-pressure events 3. lost communication or electrical faults 4. none of the above Please be blunt. Negative feedback is just as useful as positive feedback.

      No tears over the SLE and SLT trim levels disappearing but I kind of loathe the "Elevation" name. It's a truck--skip the elegance.   The slab-dashboard design is decidedly different. Almost has a Hummer flavor to it. "Professional Grade" seems to be leaning very white-collar, tech-driven these days moreso than blue-collar, functional design.   The Silverado would be my choice between the two new trucks. Pleased with the engine lineup in both. The GMC is a little "too much" for a truck, IMO, and the Denali borders on ridiculous - but I do know there are buyers for luxury trucks out there. It's just not my speed.
