Nimnight chevrolet salesman told us that a 2500 LT quadsteer w/3.73 rearend would pull a 10,000lb camper,fifthwheel ALL day long....since have found they lied....we are in need of a lower gear ratio since we bought this truck...Beware of Nimnight dealerships in Jacksonville,Florida on Cassat Ave. They'll tell you a lie when the truth was a better story.....If this was last dealership open in florida I'd...hate to say it...buy a ford
or a ddodge....now weve found it wont pull it....the sales manager only wants to charge us $4500 to fix the lie...no wonder taxpayers own 60% of gm now

So...since you didn't research enough, and believed a used car salesman, GM is at fault for this?

How long have you had the truck. All sales are not final for 3 days. You could have taken it back in the 3-day period. :rolleyes:

Yeah...your fault. The salesman could of just relayed bad info he got, right to you. Always perform your own research.

I wouldn't say stupid at all. You just have to know that most salesmen will tell you what you want to hear to make a sale, be it true or false, or even hear-say. You're right, it feels pretty crappy. It has happened to me a couple times. Just can't trust anyone these days and that really sucks. I will say that you can buy gears online, then have them installed for about 1100-1500 total. Might be an option. Afterall, it is 3000 - 3400 cheaper then their "fix."

 

Good luck!

I never research myself. I've been dealing with me for 33 years. I just go with my gut feeling. :lol:

My gut feeling would be that 10,000 lbs on a 2500 with 3.73 gears is that this is not enough truck no matter what the salesman said.

What is the limiting factor?

 

Tongue weight?

5th wheel hitch clearing rear center section?

Bed length?

      Help purchasing a touch screen digitizer

      By mark249 · Posted

      Brought my 2015 Colorado into the dealership to check my touch screen issues, had that ghost touch thing happening. They said I needed a new touch screen and they could either order me one for $500. The lady at the service deck was nice enough to tell me I could order a touch screen online for less, she did stipulate that the touch screen had to be factory OEM, you can't pair an aftermarket screen to my radio seeing it was 2015, it had to be a GM factory OEM only. I found a few on Amazon and Ebay by the numbers on the back of the old screen, DJ080PA-01A GM# 22740886, Some said "OEM" in the description and others just said "Replacement". Would a replacement be the same as a OEM as long as it had the same numbers on the back of the screen? In some of the descriptions they also show different brand names but same numbers, is that an issue?

      I have both but typically use the 4 legged walker (wheels on front, ski's on back).   The four wheeler is starting to be used on "longer" outdoor walks.  The 4 legged walker is particularly helpful in practicing good walking posture.  Both of my knees are at different stages of recovery and I'm trying to not develop poor habits.  I can actually manage with a cane but it's very difficult not to favor one leg over the other.  My PT recommends I continue with my 4 legged walker for a while.  Yesterday was four weeks since my last knee replacement and I'm excited about my progress to date.  It has been a hell of a rough journey so far but it is exciting to witness  systematic and continuous improvement.  I went for years watching the decline of my "mobility".  It seems that everyday now I am alerting my wife to something I can do now that I couldn't a day or two ago!  I encourage anyone facing the prospect of knee replacement to share any concerns with others who have had the surgery.  It isn't an instant fix but rather is a considerable amount of short term pain for long term gain.  Recovery time and pain levels vary for individuals post surgery but the end results are typically very positive and I've never encountered anyone regretting having had the surgery.

      The lifter issue can be dealt with by shorter oil changes and quality oil IMO.

      Wiring Help, Please

      By Core-Lokt · Posted

      I'm putting in an A-pillar pod/gauges, and I'm asking if anybody can identify a (preferably) fuse for a switched power and illumination circuit on the driver's side interior fuse panel. Offhand, everything I checked with a test light was constant-hot, and I'd much rather uses a piggyback fuse. I can certainly find a wire, but I'd rather not half-tap.   Thanks in advance for any help.
