- Part 2 - • 5 things I HATE - 2018...
Not sure how i could have made it more clear in the video that i love this truck. Quit complaining in the comment section about me "complaining". This is a popular series on TH-cam. I made the video because i knew it would get views. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
I was T bone in my 2018 Silverado by a guy going at least 60 mph at my driver door. Truck totaled and we all walked out with out a scratch. 5 Star safety for that one.
This body style is so much better looking than the 2019 model
Chris John Michael The one before this one is my favorite. That looks like a beefy truck. This? Looks sorta like a fan-made concept. The new one is way out there. It's slowly growing on me but it's strange lol... It's definitely not a loved design. No clue if they did any sort of sample groups to see how the design would be received. I mean comments like yours are all over and they're always the highest upvoted. It's a really strange design. I have no clue what they're thinking. Glad I got my Colorado before they decide to completely change that too...
2019 looks like a tundra how gay
Chris John Michael 2007-2013 was the best looking Silverado
Chris John Michael yess I agree
Chris John Michael yes sir
I agree the cylinder deactivation should be an option switch for the buyer.

Things I hate about my 2018 Z71
Loses traction on all the Ford and dodge drivers tears
Has trouble hauling all the panties in the bed, I accumulate from all the chicks I get
People think I'm famous when I'm seen driving it and get mobbed by paparazzi
Back windows are that way for child safety
Jeff Hyatt German cars do it
rcfreak363 cool, I don't know much about German cars, but also a lot of American cars with back doors have a lockout feature, which if you activate, will not let you open the back door from the inside. Another child safety setup
How many small children do you know that drive ? I'm pretty sure hes just referring to the driver's door panel switch..
Would be very simple for the "auto-up" to deactivate when the child window lock is engaged.
For me personally, I would like it if the Child Safety window restraint lock system went on all four Windows, the only reason why I say that is I have a dog that knows how to roll down the windows using that button. she does that all the time in the front while I'm driving in the rain. My Mazda CX-7 locks all four windows it makes me happy. Another simple fix and programming on Chevy part
I totally agree with those three. I ended up doing tunes because I was also unhappy with AFM. Diablew tune disabled that and changed shift points so it wasn’t falling on its face. With high flow cats and full exhaust and my SB intake along with the tune my mags went up to almost 25 freeway
Thanks for making this video! I just ordered me a range technology AFM disabler, express! You saved my truck's warranty, was about to get a Diablo tuner like I used for my old Charger. Thanks again!
My 2016 GMC was just totalled. It was an SLT and loaded including the 6.2. It was a hoss and easily stayed in V-4 mode quite a bit! It actually got 22 mpg hwy before the 35s and the lift. Once you have the 6.2, you'll throw rocks at the 5.3!
Chevy made the 2019 wheel wells round, now everybody is crying that it looks like a ford.
Curtis Reid it looks like a Toyota tundra, ugly
Better than a DODGE!
ford didn't invent the round wells.
enjoy your ford then
good for you buddy.
Damn good looking truck bro! I just picked up one this past Monday but in Red Hot color.
Just got mine 2 days ago! I love it! Definitely need side rails bcuz I am only 5’4, gotta get windows tinted & I love ur wheels! Thanks for the tip about the rubbing!
The power windows not going up automatically is a safety feature. If someone was in backseat and has arm in window or hand and you had auto up on your controls what do you think the end result could be?
Well you wrong they should add it because it is convenient and plus they finger and arm jam protection were they can’t smash there fingers or arm because if the sensors detect that there is a arm or a finger blocking the window it will stop so it won’t break there fingers or arm
I just wish the passenger one was auto up as well lol. Annoying to have left one go up on its own but gotta keep holding the right haha
What kind and size of wheel and tire combo is that? what offset? Nice video, hate the cylinder cutout on mine
Have a 2017 High Country 1500 4x4 Crew Cab
Things I love- 6.2L, Tri-coat White, Saddle leather interior
Things I hate- NO REAR HEAT(vents/seat warmers), NO BLIND SPOT WARNING IN THE MIRRORS, NO OPTION FOR A FULL BENCH FRONT SEAT!
Same. Why would they leave the rear with no cool/heat vents? blows my mind. They have that tiny ass blind spot mirror on the driver side that works meh, ok I guess. and I was hoping to find a full bench front seat as well but no luck. The charger that it comes with charger super slow and I have to take my phone out of the case for it to work.
Yeah idk why they stopped putting rear vents in these trucks. They stopped that in 2006. With f150s you get rear vents and heated/cooled seats on some options.
RJ Castodio buy a Denali
Denali doesn't have that either.
RJ Castodio i love that middle seat that goes up. If you know what I mean
Damn right !!! We are truly in love with ours too bro!!! We just bought the 2018 Z71 5.3 and omg it’s our dream truck, plus ours was already lifted 6” and had 35x12.5 on her already so we where absolutely amazed
LOVE the square wheels. That's why I just bought one yesterday before they switch over.
The fuel deactivation is that on all gm trucks. I just got a new Tahoe and I felt what your saying. My old 02 Tahoe don’t feel like that. Oh the windows it’s a safety issue. If they are auto in the back and let’s say you have a small child playing around sticks his head out the window and you auto up. See where I’m going with this. Anyways good video. 👍🏻
What you say makes sense... however my Toyota Highlander Limited AWD SUV has Auto Up/Down windows on all four windows.... love it. Perhaps they have some sort of sensor that will reverse the windows down if they encounter resistance (of say a hand or head)...... much like a garage door does?? Never tried it.
tgilldesign hey forgot to say truck looks beast. And how is that deactivation working out. I want to get that. Where did you get it and is it easy to install?? Oh and I do get the point of the windows. The reason I said that about the rear windows. My pops when I was about ten. I was helping him back his Buick into a parking spot. I’m 40 now so it’s been a while. Anyways. I stuck my head out the back window to tell him keep going. At the same time my mom starting busting his balls about backing up into the spot. So when he parked ,he started to put up the back windows. I still had my head sticking out. So I was being choked. People in the parking lot ran to tell my pops you killing your kid you asshole. Anyways. Me and my dad we laugh about that now. But he felt so bad when it happen. Just thought I share the story.
Dumbass why would your kid not be in a seatbelt, you see where I’m going with this, Toyota has auto up and down on all four windows and it’s a 2010, the only thing I hate about my 2017 Chevy Silverado is that there’s a fucking key, can we get rid of the fucking key already!
@@tgilldesign In us if the window has a one touch up power option, it has to have a sensor that will reverse the window if it feels resistance.
I just got my 2018 Silverado in January and was thoroughly surprised when I couldn't tell the difference between V4 or going back to V8. Absolutely, a seamless switch. No sound difference, no jerk nothing to tell there was a change up or down.
There is when you have a exhaust
I fully agree, and if they make a box to keep it in V8 mode, can we just keep it in V4 mode, And lack power until we really need it, because the 17 1/2 miles per gallon really sucks
Aldo _ Why is it Chevy’s fault that you put an exhaust on your truck
@@rogernelson67 its not but Im saying with exhaust you can easily tell the difference
It's impossible not to notice with or without a stupid loud exhaust like this kid has. Was very noticable in my 2015, thought they would have fine tuned it in my new 2018. I was wrong.
Good insight! The window setting seems petty but, when it rains, it's more important to roll the Windows up fast.
I understand your dislikes .but I also am with you on loving it. I just bought one this past December. I had the Colorado previously and loved that but love this one 100 times more. Bigger engine more possibilities!
I have a 16 and you said everything I thought youd say lol
Saw your low pro "mud tires" immediately disregarded your opinion.
same here people need to understand how engines work or keep their opinions to themselves. my silverado is stock and the 4v mode is awesome saves alot of fuel and you never know when its in v4 or v8 mode.
Then I heard the exhaust... And started to hate him.
5093329225 some people need to understand how AFM works in GM vehicles and how down the road they burn excessive oil, foul plugs, and lifter problems
Man I was just about to say the same damn thing!
LOL so Zachary from the little house on the prairie has jokes haha
do you notice the 2018 5.3V8 the temp runs over 210F when heavy accelerating on hills? my understanding something to do with active shutters in the grill?
I have the automatic roll-up on both front doors on my 2013 F150. I didn't know GM went to the capless fuel filler. Very clean truck man!
This body stile is the best it's ever been, with square fender opening
Check your window seals, my truck has a thousand miles on it and rain leaks in like a sieve. I have read that this is normal that is why they have the drain holes in the bottom of the doors. I think that is an unacceptable point of view. 2018 Silverado 1500 crew cab short bed. I have also found the paint job on the inside of the door jams to be inferior, big paint bubbles. I love my truck but I find that there are several quality issues. Maybe that is why you can get a brand new 18 Silverado crew cab all star with a 14,000 dollar discount off of Msrp.
kingof1964 pinstripe a thin 1/8 thickness tape on Chrome on the edge of door opening so water beads around it.😁
That's what the warranty is for.
The square tops on the fender wells are not a restriction on tire size. The reason your tires rub is because of the rim off set you are running. I run 33x12.5-22 Toyo Open country MT on factory rims on my 2018 with 2.5 leveling kit no rubbing at all. Love this body style . This year model is selling for as much or more than the new body style used with similar miles and condition.
I've a 2018 6.2. I never touch the back windows so that's not a problem. Stock 20" rims and tires, no problems. AFM... with my intake, exhaust upgrades, upgraded throttle body and added SuperChip, I'm pushing 500HP with noticeable improvement on the transmission shifting while getting 21.7 MPG on the freeway if I keep it under 80mph.. The chip made all the difference in the transmission shifting, it also eliminated the governor which was my biggest complaint. Awesome truck.
Very minor complaint, but the door handles inside the truck feel like the cheapest, hollow, piece of PLASTIC you could find to use. Because they are... I don't understand why they would put a 5 cent part in such a fabulous truck?? I feel like it would be very easy to snap off, and I am reminded of this every time I get out of my new truck.
agree., at least its limited to the door handles. ... look at the Ford interior, and that same cheap plastic is all over.
This reminds me of when GM swapped out the cables on the tailgates from stainless steel to galvanized steel. The galvanized ones were breaking due to corrosion, so they had a recall and replaced them back to stainless steel. I wonder how much the modification saved them?
I’ll gladly take it off your hands bro
@lmfscrew, im thinking of getting me one of these 18 models but i want a winch for the front, would it be better to get the job done myself or take it to the dealer?
The ecotec variable v4-V8 transmissions is awesome and you don’t notice a difference at all. No “Slipping” as you say
Nice truck but you really need to do something about the mic. You can barely hear anything. That goes for all your vids. By the way what offset do you have?
I don't think its all my videos but it i can tell the volume changes when using my iPhone. ill look into a solution. They are -44
solman2 I hear him perfect. Watching thru my iPhone.
I have a hard time hearing him on my laptop as well.
-24
solman2 heard him perfectly on my android! I think it's your phone not his js
i just bought a new silverado z71 1500 i love the truck but hate the amount of paint chips i have already! i have 2000klm and it looks like swiss cheese!
Stop tailgating
I have a 2015 I hated it the AFM made the trans and rear end feel like a 300,000 mile truck with bad u-joints. I installed a Super Chips Tuner set it to the performance tow and turned off the active fuel management and now it runs and feels like a beast. They say it would void the warranty but driving a truck I love was worth the risk
I hear you there. i'm very happy with the truck with the range installed. Feels like it should. Pretty sad chevy in 2018 still hasn't ironed it out.
It is your engine mounts causing that.
Glad for your success man, ignore the negative comments. I have a 17’ ZR2 and the fact that the driver side window is the only express switch drives me crazy too. BC the ZR2 is small I’m thinking about trading mine in on one of these. How is your towing and hauling weight with the mods?
I've been wondering why the paint chips so easy on my 2018 z71 lt black
Joshua Hoover it comes with a five year warranty
I have the exact same problem. I dont think it is covered by warranty...
My 16 has the same chips. Chevy has never been good with paint.
Check to see of it was made in Mexico instead of the states.. if it was in Mexico its gonna suck
Sean Cantlon where can you find that at?
If you are looking to "disable" the active fuel management system try shifting the truck in the your LOAD gear's, Use the +/- toggle on the shifter and select how many gears you would like the transmission to cycle through. This will not only solve your "problem" but it will also save the hundred of dollars you wasted on that plug in.
Id rather just use the range. Works perfect and i dont have to do anything every time i drive.
This only works if you keep it in manual 5. And at least in my 2015 would confuse the crap out of the trans and it would take off in second a lot
I have one. My initial purchase as if 2 days ago was amazing. I agree with you on the Windows. I’m a family man so the active cylinder works but yes. The work I do, it does mess with me. Otherwise, it’s a beefy mans truck
I have the same truck but 2017, my biggest gripe is the constant downshifting. Drives me crazy. Amazing truck though!
I agree! The AFM should be an option not a standard equipment on all vehicles especially SUVs and Trucks.
I think there should be a switch to just enable/disable it, it would just be overly complicated to have it as an option at the dealership
What about the jumpy transmission? Especially on a cold start....
Agree. Sometimes mine does, causing me to spill coffee
Just bought mine last summer and had the tranny redone last month...still banging from first to second when cold. They replaced all clutches, plates, and torque converter. Fuuuuuck! Lol
Nice truck I like it what exhaust are you running I would like to do that to my 2017 mine looks just like yours but black the white looks really clean
What's on your truck for an exhaust? Sounds mean. I'm looking to upgrade mine as well but looking for the right sound (a nice consistent rumble)
Mike Aubin if you dont want a clappy shitbox sound, cut your muffler then run 3” pipe to however you want to 4”> deep and low tone at idle, loud enough to be heard. Nothing extreme. Just keep your cats
I have a 2017 love the truck, HATE that I cannot dim my infotainment screen separately from also dimming my gauges...
I don’t know of a single vehicle that has separate dimming controls for the stereo and the gauge cluster.
2017 deep ocean blue z71, 3,000 miles. Paint chips, paint chips & paint chips. Absolutely hate the paint on these new trucks. The window thing you mentioned is a minor nuisance too.. Would like to deactivate the v4 mode, but I'll wait to see if there are any issues with it first. Hate how the truck just wont get up & go/feels like the trans is slipping & the whole truck just feels like it's chugging.
R MH honestly i think chevys have a bad ass exterior but the interior ruins it for me and thats mainly why i bought my ford
Dude I have the exact same truck as you I didn't know if I was being to rough with it or not but my truck looks like it was attacked by a mountain lion I have huge scratches from things as simple as closing my door with my keys in my hand and it scratching 3 inches up my door and it's literally peeling or by the door handle I sold that thing and i'll most likely never get a new truck again.
Nathan Collins pretty much how I feel about my 17 Sierra. I tuned it with a Diablo and it's world's better, but I shouldn't have to spend $400 and void warranty to make it drive half decently. It also dents so fucking easy it ridiculous.
nyxzus i hace a summit white 2018 with a 6inch lift 35’s and I don’t like the rocky ridge fender flares and paint chips on the fenders rip wide tires kill paint
I have the 2017 silverado ltz z71 midnight and absolutely hate this truck. 5.3 / 8 speed is just junk. This thing is slower than my old 2009 silverado. Got 15k kms / 8k mi on it and i am trading it for a f150 lariat 5.0. Ford is killing it in the truck game and GM is about to lose another lifetime loyal customer.
My ‘08 Tahoe had cylinder deactivation,and you hardly knew when it engaged or dis-engaged! One of the finer things I liked about the vehicle! Oh, and the reason for this is of course fuel economy! Some have that (awful) engine stop/start feature, which is far more intrusive and annoying - but thankfully, the include a shutoff switch upon starting the vehicle. (I had a rental with that feature)
The power up, or down for all windows feature isn’t always on vehicles; especially trucks (you might not even get in on top level vehicles for all 4 windows).
Mind you, I like the offering from Chevy, as well as a few others, but shopping around and checking off issues I can live with is what I’m doing!
It made me think after you mentioned it but jeeps ridiculous shut off engine restart at every stop light is a horrible design I'd never want.
Which afm tuner did you put on your truck, have you had any ptoblems im trying to buy one for my 2017 silverado
I have a 2017 Sierra and the fucking glasses holder has to be my biggest pet peeve. You cannot fit anything in it
lol i dont think ive even tried mine, ill have to check it out.
I keep a spare $20 bill there in case I get into a jam.
Just bought a 2018 Silverado two days ago and the glasses holder is terrible. Even my smallest frame sunglasses don't fit in the damn thing.
What's your percentage on the tint ?
Brandon Fragoso looks like 20% on top of the privacy smoked glass on the back and 20% front and a brow that’s to low but that’s probably 5% either way. Always check your state laws and regulations.
Nice truck. Just wanted to mention that the lack of auto roll up on the passenger and rear windows is a safety feature. Yes, they could easily put it in, but they chose not to, because if your kid of passenger has their hands or arm out the window and you hit the roll up, it will close on them. I’m pretty sure that’s why they put it in, so people don’t go auto-rolling up the windows on the kid with their hand out the window in the back seat.
30 years in Land Surveying Silverado’s have been the backbone of our fleet. Overall they have been fine.... they sit lower stock than the D and F. We like that because we work out of the side of canopies to access our equipment and goodies.
When got the 2014 I loved the refresh. We kind of abused it letting it idle on the sides of roadways while surveying and I know the oil changes were not done religiously by that crew. So that one ended up having issues with the torque converter and it shifted from 8 to 4 with a thud. That one is now gone.
We got two 2017 ‘s with the new look front end and the LED lighting and they have been good.
We got a 2019 Trailboss that I drive for my crew truck and so far she has been good.... tailgate has no handle, and is thin! Looks like a Tundra but we get lots of compliments from contractors, Customs Officers, kids lol
We just got a 2021 Trailboss, just like my 2019.... look like twins except the new one has buckets, console, and heated seats..... too new to comment on.
My personal rig is a stock 2015 Silverado Z71 LTZ and I absolute fucking love it! I have had a couple minor recalls that were computer related and and exhaust gasket leak underneath the cab that made a whistle on acceleration. Mine is black and the paint scratches easily so I have my own mitt for washing and never use a car wash scrubber on it. I only have 46k on mine and zero issues so far... it is always garaged unless out on camping and fishing trips. I tow small lake boats and custom fly fishing boats on top with 3 Yakima racks. Dented my roof with the cab rack.. too much muscle lol so be careful! I camp out of mine like a camper.... coolers, fishing gear, tents, pop ups, rods, tools, trolling batteries and motors, water jugs, gas cans.... etc lots of room for me. I have a Snugtop Aero Canopy on it... looks like a Tahoe lol!
Cheers
Almost every programmer has the ability to deactivate the AFM .... I have the hyper tech 2.0 and turned it off and my mileage actually went up
wjoldham do u like your hyper tech im thinking about getting a tunner for a little power , turn v4 off and , mpg increase i have a 5.3l
Southern hunting and shooting channel kinard the hyper tech is ok.... the thing I like most about it is being able to mess with my shift points...you can’t even feel it shift under hard acceleration....and as long as I drive responsibly and keep my foot out of it I get 18-21 on the highway with 35s
A.P.561 I think it was 250 ish....I got the hyper tech 2.0
Warranty voided with it programmed out tho
AFM is the ultimate engine killer. Let me tell you.... 90k miles and a new motor. Range is a good "temp" solution the best is AFM delete but is also a lot more expensive.
BrappinDRZ I had an 08 Sierra 5.3 with it, bought new drove to 212,000 miles no issues.. Sold it I now have 09 with 6.0 it has it but I got the range on this one. Taking no chances. But now if something happens it's getting built.
How many inches is your lift and what size wheels and tires are you running
I feel the same way about my new GMC best truck i have had what engine you have in your truck do you have vortec
Video on how you afford the truck and stang?
Hank Hill save all your pennies !
Erick_Chavira ive saved 2 pennies so far
T Wayland there you go you are on the right path ,I’m 4 pennies up
credit
Gary Droz still need a down payment
AFM is to meet federally mandated CAFE standards.
Ethan A Mmmm, I'll take a medium latte.
I would rather pay a "gas guzzler" tax, like you would on a Mustang Shelby.
I own a 2015 1500 LT full bed dbl cab. 9 yrs in the northeast, not garaged, 35k miles. V6. Never stuck. Not a single issue to date.
I tow a 26 ft travel trail from coast to coast twice and have been so amazing while towing at 70 MPH to look down to see I was running on 4 cylinders and even more amazed how smoothly it transverses back to 8 cylinders. Unless I am watching the information center I can not feel or know how many cylinders are active while towing. My 2018 has 37000+ miles. I even seen 6 cylinders on on occasion.
Another thing I don’t like about my Silverado is the front bumper. The factory paint is absolute garbage. Only 7k miles and there is so much rock chips
You're dumb i can tell
Preach. I'm looking for a truck. I've always been a Chevy man but cylinder deactivation has me looking at the Tundra.
k.b. little do it.
k.b. little
Chevy shake. . . .chevy shake be careful buyers
Awe yes the toyota from those nice people who brought you Pearl Harbor.. hmm well I don’t know about you guys but I haven’t forgotten nor will I.. but then again I’m just a Red Blooded AMERICAN.. 🇺🇸
amv1231 tundras only truck that's actually made in America
Friend of mine traded in his laggy Tundra for an F-150 5.0. FYI
Well if you can’t afford the range technology. You can bypass the v4 drop by, when you go to drive off, you put it in manual then go to 5 or m5. Then it won’t drop. But you got to do it every time you go to drive.
What do you think about the seats? I personally think they are uncomfortable compared to my 2005 tahoe. Also the center console could use some more padding
I love both in the truck, no complaints.
I'm a technician for Chevrolet it's an awesome truck I have same truck in tricoat pearl white it's absolutely beautiful
Have these motors had problems with the AFM. Im not worried about it but would like to hear from a tech i have a 17 5.3.
Kenny_Powers no problems with the motors I has 2015 and now 2018 Silverado with afm with 5.3
Did the 2012 Silverado have afm problems I heard it was more common in those models from 2007 to 2013?
Brandon Davis early on there were but past years no problem I've had Silverado since 2013 I've never had any issues with mine I now have 2018
Brandon Davis I have a 2012 gmc sierra with the 5.3 and yes this year has the problem.... I have the dreaded lifter tick on start up every time. I'm just driving a ticking time bomb. Then I will be doing the AFM delete. It sucks that they couldnt fix the problem in 2007 when they knew there was an issue. But i guess if they don't fix it then people will buy more vehicles. 2013 was when they fixed the issue
Side mirrors way too small.
Tom Abts good thing the tow mirrors are an option.
I get the cylinder deactivation, its annoying but it gets better with miles. My 16 Denali has it and other than the green v4 light coming on you barely know it has switched to 4 cylinder mode. The window thing would be a convenience yes, but that's a safety feature. Having 4 kids I can live with rolling a window up instead of smashing their fingers or worse (used to you pushed down to roll a window up until a few kids killed themselves by rolling the windows up on their necks). As for fuel mileage, well big wheels dont help. But I've learned over the years that the way I drive effect my fuel mileage, I can get 14-15mpg or mid 18s to low 20 mpg. Granted I have a 6.2 now but all my previous trucks were z71s with the 5.3
Do you keep your “range” in all the time? Or do you take it out and install it again each time you go driving? Cause I read that it kills your battery if you keep it in all the time without the truck being used.. how does it go for you?
G G there's a switch called Tonsiki obd port unit that you can buy to turn the Range AFM disabler on and off so you don't have to unplug it all the time. Cost about $10
I leave it plugged in. Truck has sat for several days without driving and fired right up no problem. It is a brand new truck so the battery is new, a battery with some miles on it might drain faster but i don't think it should be an issue unless you're not driving it for weeks at a time.
You know society is FAILING when a young kids has a $50,000 truck, and he is making a video of things that suck on it. REALLY!!!! My first vehicle was an orange 1977 Buick Le Sabre, ugliest thing on wheels and I was grateful to just have a vehicle, even if it was a p.o.s.
The vein and shallow vanity I see in many TH-cam vids is unsettling. Generation (spoiled). That's all.
Truth 2share dumbass
PrideOfChamps
Good one!
You are so right. My first car at the time was a really old 71 nova that had the trunk smashed in from an accident. It had two towing lights fixed to the trunk lid and a bungee chord holding the trunk closed. It literally caught fire while i was fueling at a gas station. I pushed it off to the side and left it there. I was 18 and would been happy just to have a reliable car that didnt catch fire
#Workforit
Well I'm 41, and just got my first new vehicle. It's a 2018 Silverado crew cab. The same as this one. And I have to say. Thanks think his video makes sense. Yeah he is young. But his video was a good one.
2016 Silverado Z71, no lift but ground clearance is a joke especially that they market this truck as off-road z71, front valance and mudflaps are too low to ground, ripped one or two off already in northeast snow, 👎🏼
I just learned that my 2017 Silverado LTZ Z71 has a protective engine skid plate made out of plastic. How does that grab ya?
I think the auto up in the rear is a safety thing, for dogs that stick their heads out windows, kids and hands etc. I wanted to buy a similar truck but ended up with the Titan. To me the Gm was lethargic (5.3) and a few other nuances. But you're right, they all have issues, even my Titan has dislikes by me. Yours is a nice looking rig.
amen brotha! All the work i put into my 14' doesnt make me hate that AFM any less. Kills the love of my truck.
bro your truck is so lit
My f-150 platinum does all that and 1000 other things. Use to be a Chevy fan, go drive a f-150 and see if it changes your mind. Won’t even consider dodge (Chrysler fiat JUNK). Most trucks now days are all about the same, Ford is a just a step ahead.
Mike K yeah don’t think ford is ahead of a smart car
Mike K f150 have what I call a throw away engine. Junk yards make more money on used v8 f150 engines than anything else.
Your truck looks great. I have a few questions for you. 1. how high is your leveling kit. 2. what size tires do you have and. 3. did you have to buy a new rim
Look through his vids he shows everything he has done to this truck
Hi, I would like to know what are the tire zise, because they look great on the truck. I have same truck and I want to get same wheels as yours. Thank's
Please make a video on what you do for your money lolz
Nike Pro Elite he works for his money just like everyone else lol
Nike Pro Elite its hard for some to understand in this country. Bust your ass and work. Good things will come
Keep a cover on, work and invest. Liston to people above you. Then you can enjoy the nice things in life
Probably works.
I mean what his work is. Obviously he works for his money. That’s how people from the south are. Sounds like he is. I was just wondering what his job is.
1- it’s a Chevy
2- it’s not a Ford
3- it sounds like Exhaust leak
4- the price like buying a small house
5- warranty should be like ..7year 100,000 standard minimum for what you pay
You're buying one tiny house for what i paid lol
Lol ford is crap. All that power for nothing.
Like buying a small house? Maybe a single wide trailer.. I'm seeing these trucks local, lifted with 33" tires, with
what trim has the full center console and pocket instead of trailer brake up on the head light switch trim?
What lift and wheel / tire combination is this? Looks great
CAN'T HEAR YOU
Agree with you on the cylinder deactivation, and power up windows.
In Ca, it is illegal to use the active fuel management disabled. It is considered a smog defeat device. With that said I bought one because of my dislike the jerky jerky shifting back and forth. I agree works great. I put it back in for long freeway drives.
What size rims and tires do you have there. Any rubbing issues
So how do you keep water and dirt from getting in the fuel spout when you take the truck off road?
Close the lid
They added the cylinder activation because it is used for fuel economy. I personally own a 2019 Chevy 1500. I kept it on and tested it and I was able to get 45 MPG with it on and 39 with it off. Its up to what you want. If I had a option I would keep it on and there has been times I wanted it off like off roading.
Simple and just beautiful
On the 2017 4.3L V6 the shift to and from V4 is seamless and mileage is actually better than my GMC Acadia. I have a strange issue with power drivers window, almost impossible to move in small increments. Passenger no problem. A backrack would look great on your vehicle, one is in the works for mine. Wind reflector at the top of the windows also look good, especially on white trucks. Those wheels are awesome, probably too awesome for an older guy like me.
whats your gas mileage looking like with those tires and the only v8 mode
What size rims and tires or those? The truck looks great!
what exhaust do you have?
Will lifting the truck void warranty??
Ive heard alot about this but iwould like to know your opinion? Thanks
Ive heard of some dealers trying to void it on major issues if you have oversized tires. so depending on the dealer it is possible.
no
i work for Bill Heard Chevrolet they will try to tell you it does but they dont actually void them
So I have a question about the truck could you fit 3 car seats across the back. Asking cause I have three kids all in car seats well two car seats and one booster & im just not a suv type of momma && I plan of getting a truck just wanted to see how to car seats would do in it first.
Totally agree on the cylinder deactivation thing. I drive a 2015 GMC Sierra I took it to the dealership where I bought it and was complaining thinking my transmission was messing up and the vibration feeling when the cylinders shut off but then they told me that was normal I said that’s stupid as shit from GM to do that without having a option like ecomode button or something
What programmer yall reccomend for this truck
I have a 2018 and you absolutely cannot tell when it goes between v4 and v8. The only thing you notice is the instantaneous MPG's says like 35-40 on the highway. Truck is amazing.
I have the 2017 Chevy Silverado Z71 and I hate how it kicks into v4. Like you said I'd rather it be V8 all the time
Dude is smart by disabling the cylinder deactivation...save his lifters. Dodge figured out how to do it without damaging engine. GM hasn't
The non automatic up for the rear is to keep kids and animals in the rear from getting crushed. Stupid yes but it happens. Nice truck I have a GMC
“For an extra $5k you can have automatic windows to go up and down on there own” 😂
